How do you determine scalpers? I buy 6 tickets for me and my friends and we all get sick. Are we scalpers? I buy 1 ticket and a work trip gets foisted on me the next day so I try to resell. Am I a scalper? Won’t everyone just charge the ticket buyer the price of the bond? So this still only harms the fans that want to see the show. The scalpers just need to have more up front capital in your system. |

If you return the ticket to the venue/band, you get your money back, get the bond back, and you're not a scalper.
Charging the ticket buyer the price of the bond doesn't only harm the fans that want to see the show. It also harms the band that won't have fans come see the show. It's an incentive for the band to buy back unused tickets. Bands currently don't do that.
Fans demanding ticket buy backs puts pressure on bands to put an end to scalping. It's fans who pay the entire cost of scalping now, not bands.
