VANCOUVER – Olympic ticket holders will still keep their original tickets after they sell them on a new Games committee website, creating the potential for some tickets to be illegally resold.
More than 120,000 duplicate 2010 Winter Olympic tickets could be floating around by the time the Games begin in mid-February, officials said.
On Monday, the Vancouver Olympic Organizing Committee announced the opening of its "fan-to-fan marketplace," an online ticket re-sale venue, and said it expects about 10 per cent of the 1.2 million Olympic tickets made available to the public will be re-sold.
