All gone in 23 minutes.

"Twenty-three minutes. That's how much time it took for eager Yosemite hikers to gobble up all the available Half Dome permits for May and June that went on sale March 1.

Permits for Saturdays and Sundays didn't even last that long. They were gone in 10 minutes.
"

From the first comment:

"Just yesterday, a woman, Angelica Valenta, had 12 permits for sale on Craigslist. She said she sold all 12 in the first day, for $100 each. That is a 6000% profit. Not bad. Didn't the Park Service know there would be a huge black market created because of this?"
