With every great upcoming show comes the dreaded possibility of scalpers who notoriously purchase tickets promptly with the intention of reselling them at an amplified price.

The same has apparently occurred with the BLACKPINK concert tix, which fans readily complained were far too exorbitant at their original price.

A few days ago, JUICE reported that the ticket prices for the Born Pink World Tour range from RM388 to RM 1,888.

The public tickets, which were actually priced as low as RM388, were even being attempted to be resold by scalpers for as much as RM780!

Additionally, there were certain seats with allocated seating that ranged in price from RM2,555 to RM2,974. Despite the fact that the zones for which these tickets are intended are not specifically stated, the tickets’ actual costs range from RM388 to RM788.

Based on whatever fits your budget, the prices are:

• RM388 (CAT 6)
• RM488 (CAT 5)
• RM588 (CAT 4)
• RM788 (CAT 3)
• RM988 (CAT 2)
• RM1,588 (CAT 1)
• RM1,888 (BORN PINK VIP Soundcheck)

The tickets went on sale in advance on November 15 for Weverse Fan club members, today for Live Nation members, and tomorrow for the general public (November 17). The list of prices were quick to go viral online, with some noting that RM1,800 is almost impossible to afford if you consider the minimum wage.

Even so, the BORN PINK VIP Soundcheck passes, which were the most expensive seats at the show were quickly sold out. Additionally, it was reported that scalpers have obtained it and have begun offering these tickets for as much as RM8,776.

This was observed on the website Viagogo, where tickets for the VIP zone are currently selling for between RM5,274 and RM8,776 each. The public tickets, which were actually priced as low as RM388, were even being attempted to be resold by scalpers for as much as RM780.

Additionally, there were certain seats with allocated seating that ranged in price from RM2,555 to RM2,974. Despite the fact that the zones for which these tickets are intended are not specifically stated, the tickets’ actual costs range from RM388 to RM788.

We all know BLACKPINK are phenomenal performers, but would you be willing to pay up to RM8k just to catch them live? Let us know, BLINKs!
