    you can offload without scalping, you just have to re-sell at face value. as a consumer i want the ability to sell/buy face value tickets without having to physically go to the venue on that day.

      You just described scalping…except with a fixed pricepoint.

      Scalping just is slang for reselling tickets. I’ve gone to baseball games, $48 dollar seats, from scalpers, paid $22.

        ok, whatever you call it, reselling tickets for a profit should be illegal. face value or less is fine.
