The Facebook post was liked by more than 550 people, with many calling the behaviour out as ‘a joke’.
‘I can assure you, no die hard Swiftie would do this,’ one commented.
‘They were literally for free at the concert,’ another pointed out.
‘Someone will buy it too.. insanity,’ another added.
Someone else called it ‘delusional’ and noted others were selling their wristbands for $20 each.
‘Why would anyone actually buy it though, let alone spend that kind of money on it?! Like to me it’s a cool memento if you actually went to the concert and enjoyed it so I get that, but if you didn’t go it’s kind of pointless,’ someone else wrote.
