I'm trying to find tickets for a sold-out show (South Pacific)
for next weekend. As far as I can tell, this means that I have
to make sense of the reseller/scalper market.
A few minutes of clicking around suggests that many of them
are the same company with different fronts, and/or they're sharing
data with each other. I've seen the exact same seats going for
different prices, which tells me that they're selling each
other's inventory and marking it up themselves.
Does anyone know their way around this mess? Is it multiple
"base companies" selling tickets with some sort of affiliate
program? Is it multiple companies who all might be holding
tickets, and who will also sell each other's inventory at a
premium?
Are there any tricks to buying tickets at a better price? For
example, do they get cheaper or more expensive the day before
the show?
