I learned something tonight about those ticket company's that have been selling tickets to 219 since a week before Conor jumped the Bellator cage.
I originally thought that tickets being sold at these low prices... was proof that Conor was never considered for the event... but in light of this news from Meltzer, I thought I'd take a closer look at what they were offering. Also strange waz that the "official" tickets aren't even on sale yet.
I read the fine print in the "purchase agreement" of one of those sites that have been selling them.
These companies "guarantee" you that you will get the seat you paid for or an upgraded one. The hustle is that their penalty for not offering you those tickets is a full refund... & nothing more.
In other words... if McGregor did end up on the card... & those $800 ringside tickets got jacked up to $20,000... they would just simply cancel your transaction & refund your money.
I just wanted to explain that to you since you recognized my past post where I noticed that tickets were all ready on sale... & I waz stating that as proof that McGregor was never on that card. In the end... it was actually true that tickets were on sale... but I was un-aware of the hustle that they were a part of. There's a bunch of sites doing it too.
Anywayz... sorry for the confusion... I learned about something I never knew waz happening with ticket sales... & so must retract my past comments about the UFC lying about McGregor being considered for 219.
