You may be finding it a bit odd on why people would do this when there is merch online, however there is show-exclusive items that you can only get at the stadium. Elite Daily reports that these items are the ones that fans are dying to add to their collection, and the problem is once the items run out, they won’t restock them.

One of the show-exclusive items that have gone viral on TikTok  is the Eras Tour blue crewneck. Resellers have it listed for over $400 online. Now with the announcement of the Swift’s Midnights (The Late Night Edition), Swifties will be wanting to get to the venue early to pick up a physical copy of this show-exclusive CD.
