Ticket scalpers in Beijing who have been trying to sell Shanghai World Expo tickets on classified websites are complaining about a lack of interest.

A ticket-seller, surnamed Li, a resident of Fengtai district, has posted several ads on baixing.com, a popular classified website. He said he invested 6,000 yuan on buying 30 tickets at face value - 200 yuan each.

The tickets are for the May 1 opening day.
