Profiting off Duke lax
Wednesday, April 19, 2006
Intersting article from Darren Rovell, ESPN's sports business writer. Here's a piece of it.
When the story first hit the news more than a month ago, the average price of a Duke lacrosse item on the online auction site eBay was $7.74. The average price now is $17.04. The pace of transactions has increased, too. In early March, only a handful of Duke lacrosse items changed hands in a week. This past week, 79 items sold. On Monday, T-shirts sold for more than $40 each, with as many as 16 bids on single items.
