Scalpers, Thriving Date Marketplace Bring 'Dark Knight' Ticket Dream to Life
We heard from plenty of friends and acquaintances who were tragically shut out of The Dark Knight's opening-weekend Bat-magic; having procrastinated on purchasing IMAX tickets, it was a tough week to be a casual moviegoer and partake of history's biggest smash. Thank God for Craigslist, we suppose, where at least if you can withstand the Joker-costumed throngs queued up around the block for their fourth viewing, a deal awaits — if you call $60 for two ducats a "deal":
2 tix: The Dark Knight on IMAX @ The Bridge - $60
I have 2 tickets for "The Dark Knight" at THE BRIDGE CINEMA DE LUX for this Friday (7/25) at 6:45. Please e-mail me if you are interested. Pick up only.
Or, if a romantic transaction is more your style, follow the jump for a sampling of the DK Personals Marketplace:
come see the "Dark Knight" with me, 4:45 today - m4m - 30 (West LA, Santa Monica, hollywood, LA)
hey guys, I'm looking for someone around my age (22 - 36) to go watch "The Dark Knight" wtih me over at the Arclight in "the Dome"....one of my friends flaked (big surprise) and I have an extra ticket I don't want to go to waste...I'm going either way...but I'd rather have someone come join me.
Great seats...so just be into comic movies and come out and have a good time, maybe we'll grab dinner after.

Looking for someone to watch "The Dark Knight" with. - m4w - 27 (South Gate)
title says it all. let me know if interested.
Meanwhile, the eBay market has cooled down considerably since Friday; we're relieved to see that one Universal City seller's $499.99 offer went unbid-upon. And adjusted for inflation, of course, that'll probably be a steal by the time scalpers everywhere are honing their pitches for Iron Man 2. We'll take our chances.
