Sister sells her concert tickets for profit and calls her sibling selfish for not giving one back a week before the concert: 'She went crying to our parents about it'

Earlier this summer, a woman bought two tickets to see her favorite band, who would be playing later in the year. Each ticket cost $150 and they were hard to get. She planned to go with a friend and finally see the band she had waited years to see live.

Her sister also got tickets for the same show.

But then her sister decided she needed the money more than the concert. She resold her tickets for double the price, making about $300 in profit. At the time, she seemed happy with her decision. Now, with the concert only a week away and excitement growing, the sister has changed her mind.

She wants to go after all.

Instead of buying tickets at the current resale price, she asked her sister for one of the two tickets she had already bought. She said the tickets were just meant for a friend anyway. But the answer was no.

The tickets were not for sale. They had been bought months ago with a plan in mind. The sister was reminded that she had already made her choice and earned money from it. She tried to make things right by offering the original price, $150. But that didn’t change anything. The tickets still were not for sale.
That’s when things changed.
Suddenly, it was no longer about tickets. Now it was about family. The sister called her sibling selfish and said family should come before friends. She even involved their parents, who started pressuring their daughter to give up a ticket, take the money, and either go alone or not go at all.
To the person who bought the tickets, it felt like she was being punished for planning ahead, while her sister tried to undo a profitable choice without any consequences. Giving up a ticket would be seen as proving loyalty to family. Her sister sees it differently: choices were made, money was earned, and now expectations are being changed after the fact.
