  • "AITJ for refusing to give my concert tickets to my sister because she sold her own tickets?"

    Such-Pumpkin-9435 https://www.reddit.com/r/AmITheJerk/comments/1qk3puh/aitj_for_refusing_to_give_my_concert_tickets_to/ - I bought tickets to see my favorite band back in June for a show happening next week.
  • Such-Pumpkin-9435 https://www.reddit.com/r/AmITheJerk/comments/1qk3puh/aitj_for_refusing_to_give_my_concert_tickets_to/ - The tickets were $150 each and hard to get. I bought 2 tickets planning to go with my friend.
  • Such-Pumpkin-9435 https://www.reddit.com/r/AmITheJerk/comments/1qk3puh/aitj_for_refusing_to_give_my_concert_tickets_to/ - My sister also bought tickets to the same show. Last month she decided she needed money more than the concert so she sold her tickets for double what she paid on a resale site.

TL;DR: Sister sold her concert tickets for profit then wants one of mine, I said no, now family thinks im being selfish and should give it to her.

Your sister didn't change her mind, she changed her math. She wants to have her profit and eat the concert too. She made a grown-up decision to sell. She can live with the grown-up consequence of not going. Tell your parents her ticket is in the wallet of the stranger she scalped it to. End of discussion.
