This is how people sell spots in classes, this is also why the system is flawed

This is a post that I came across by Dhillon09, and have quick question.
I'm wait listed for KIN142, and seats are reserved until Nov24th.
Should I stay on the wait list, or should I drop and immediately enroll on that day (which is supposed to bypass all people on the wait list)?
Would this apply for labs too? I'm 2nd on the wait list, and there's one seat available. No reserved seats, but I'm afraid to lose my place the current lab that I am wait listed for if it doesn't work.
-> Edit: I have a friend enrolled in one of the labs as an attempt to save me a spot if I were first on the wait list. Although I am not first, apparently I can have her to drop the course, and right after re-enroll and beat the wait list? Don't think that works, but definitely worth asking.
