Venture Capital Helps Ticket Scalping Go Online

Posted by Langston on October 31, 2007

Ticket scalping has moved online.  I know some people who have gotten investments from some venture capital firms to take their scalping business online.  Being online allows a scalper to sell Hannah Montana tickets and other tickets across the nation.

While some people may say that online ticket brokers aren’t scalpers, i beg to differ; it is a third party who has purchased a set amount of tickets from whatever venue is hosting the performance.  Same principle as scalping, it’s just not on the street.
