Make tickets online $500. When you arrive you're given a special ticket-locked voucher that lets you go back to the website and get $480 back (assuming tickets are still $20 like when I was 20 years old).

- coding123 3y agoThe idea here is that the scalped ticket would not get the refund. Scalper pays with their card Someone purchases the ticket from the scalper Venue distributes special code (short like 2 letters) that gets tied to your ticket. If you go back to the website, and enter the code, it's not benefiting your credit card, but the scalpers. So if you purchase from an unauthorized person, you have no reason to enter the code. Wrong code entered twice - lose your 480. Numbers could be adjusted to make more sense for more people, as long as it makes the scalper ticket seem ridiculous.
- kelnos 3y agoA lot of people who'd like to see the show don't have $500 they can float for that long. A lot of the "solutions" presented end up making shows too expensive for a large portion of the artist's fans. That's not an outcome the artists want.
