History Of Ticket Scalping

In 2002, it was estimated that Ticket Brokers/Scalpers in USA & England made a profit of over £110 million! Shows like Rolling Stones, Pop Idol, Eminem, Paul McCartney, The Ozzfest and Christina Aguilera, will help drive those numbers even higher this year. There are brokers who are currently selling tickets for over 50 times face value. Amazingly, the people buying these tickets never actually had to pay these outrageous prices. Ticket Brokers/Scalpers make their living off the ignorance of the general public. Most ticket scalpers create the illusion that getting good seats to top shows is a very difficult if not impossible task. By creating this illusion and keeping the general public in the dark, brokers and scalpers are able to successfully mark up their tickets and obtain these outrageous prices.

The Ticket Broker industry is a niche business. The brokers and scalpers today work together through various networks utilizing their trade secret tactics to corner the best seats available for the hottest events. By working together in a non-conspicuous manner, they are able to control (to some degree), the secondary market or resale market for these tickets, driving the prices to ridiculous levels. Since ticket brokers all around the country buy so many tickets using special techniques, it makes it almost impossible for the uninformed consumer to purchase quality seats through traditional ticket purchasing avenues.
    Demand for tickets in the last four to five years has further driven the profits of the Ticket Brokers/Scalpers to new levels. With the enormous popularity of entertainers and a fairly strong economy, Americans are continuing to force the price of after-market tickets through the roof. Ticket Brokers usually charge three to twenty times face value . In many cases, Ticket Brokers have formed large national networks with other Ticket Brokers. This allows them to trade and sell tickets among themselves. They even sell tickets they don’t have…tickets that are represented by other Ticket Brokers/Scalpers. This type of program forces the price of tickets even higher because now the ticket must go through two hands instead of one.

Ticket Brokers used to distribute excess tickets to common street scalpers. Now through the Internet, they can sell their tickets through online auctions such as eBay and Yahoo. There are literally dozens of outlets on the Internet that Ticket Brokers use to move excess inventory. Years ago, the only sure method for Ticket Brokers was to move excess tickets through street scalpers. This method, though successful, was risky for the both ticket scalper and broker. Due to the massive reach of the Internet and the fact that there are no laws pertaining to ticket scalping over the Internet, these same Ticket Brokers, who once purchased conservative numbers of tickets to avoid the possibility of holding large quantities of unsold tickets requiring distribution through street scalpers, are much more comfortable today purchasing large quantities of tickets through their secret tactics and techniques. They can easily move or resell all their extra tickets through the Internet. This allows the ticket scalper to further control the inventory of key events, which has driven ticket prices to record highs in the secondary markets over the last three years.

The success of the Ticket Brokers has been based on their ability to keep the general public in the dark on how the whole ticket industry really works. Our book, The Main Event Ticket Guide, provides you access to the same tactics and techniques utilized by these brokers. This guide is a compilation of information from many Ticket Brokers whose methods have been proven to work time and again. This small investment can bring you the returns of a lifetime, whether it is for your own personal use to get great seats to top events, or to utilize these techniques to generate your own profit machine. The choice is yours!
