but yes, i know what type you're talking about, and i think they are shit as well :shy:

just means the scalped tickets wont be available till november like the rest of the real tickets. Or that more people will be ripped off with fake tickets.

you realise they dont know which ones are bought by scalpers, moron
you're an idiot

i used to work for ticketek; but it is pretty common knowledge

a lot of tickets get cancelled to big scale events like this and it is one of the main reasons they delay sending out tickets in these scenarios; so they have enough time to check - they have a dedicated team for this.

for small scale people who buy one or two extra etc; even those who buy the maximum amount; they wont get caught

but anyone that buys more than the number of tickets allowed per person using different myticektek memberships etc or different credit cards with variations of their name (eg the credit cards saying Tom Smith and another saying T Smith); and are found to have accounts with generally an unreasonable amount of tickets obviously not all for them; these tickets will be cancelled and put back on sale

same with tickets that people display the tickets with ticket numbers or seat locations on ebay - they immediately get identified and cancelled, if sold for higher than 110% of their face value



know your shit before trying to pwn someone

oh hey, question

Consider this scenario:

I walk up to buy tickets to a big event, i see 80 year old man (obvious scalpers) buying the maximum amount of tickets and then discussing outside how much they are gonna put them up on ebay for. If i happen to get pissed off because i hate scalpers and steal their tickets then run away, can they just go in and be like 'that little whippersnapper stole my ticket' so then the ticketek person will cancel them, and maybe even my tickets?

no idea mate; but either way you would be the one legally in the wrong (theft is a crime; scalping is not apart from in qld; and even so; they havent done it yet) so i cant imagine youd get away with it
