Although the tickets in Hong Kong were sold out in 10 mins, it has nothing to do with people in mainland China
First, you could hardly access to the ticket buying system via the Internet because it was all jammed. Second, as far as I know 95% of people who queue for tickets are from Hong Kong. Third, many of you need to buy the tickets through yahoo auction. did talk to a lot people who queue up from 12am and did not find any people from mainland |

We could hardly access to the ticket buying system, that's true. But there still have something to do with them, Firstly,most of us buy tickets through Taobao...or other internet procurement service. And others request their friends who are in Hongkong (like me ). Especially Guangdongnese. And he also buy one for my friends. And then, generally, our visas for goning to Hong Kong are one time visas. So, no doubt, we can not queue up~ You can check weibo or chinese ringo fourm there are how many fans mentioned they have got the tickets. |

You know, when it comes to Ringo money is not really an object. On CDJapan I've got a $200 order of all the latest SR/TJ releases awaiting purchase. It'll happen.
But still, would I drop $645 on a pair of tickets to Domestic Bon Voyage? Look at these insane Yahoo auctions. http://auctions.search.yahoo.co.jp/s...erce&ei=euc-jp It's like the ultimate fan test. |

Why are the tickets so damn expensive? In the US, an artist like Lady Gaga plays a huge arena show and the tickets are at least $100.
But Shiina Ringo tickets are at least $100. It just seems kind of ridiculous. |

Well, it is her last tokyo jihen show. Obviously, her best fans would jump on that deal like Adam Richman on a food challenge.

That's what I mean. Fandom can boil down to pure dollars and cents. Whoever's sustaining on instant noodles for the next 6 months because their whole bank account just went into TJ's coffers will always have it over the rest of us.
