So, people are waiting in -4 degrees temps to get on a train to Paris.

Do you think it's acceptable to go to the front of the queue and buy someone's place?

How would you feel if you were standing behind people who sold their spot?

If you had waited for 8 hours how much would you sell your place in the line for?

sigh - you haven't got grips with modern entrepeneurship in the global economy.  You should be looking to add value to your spot and sell it for more.

Pushing in, it might be rude but it adds value!

I don't see how you can be annoyed with people for selling their place, you wait the same amount of time either way so it's all good.

why would someone pay more for a spot that is behind the original spot for more?

Because you give them a 50% off voucher for next time or your watch or something.

If I knew the answer to that I'd be in the queue now getting rich!  There might for instance be an attractive young lady right beside you in the queue and the lech buying your spot might fancy his chances.

The point is that if you attempt to be competitive by price cutting, you will only get further undercut by ppl from mumbai call centres.
