Re:Why Scalpers Can Get Olivia Rodrigo Tickets and You Can't by somat on Sunday September 24, 2023 @12:16AM (#37630082)
Have you seen how the dutch flower auctions do it?

Those guys have something like 30 seconds max to hit their mark.

Now those are professional buyers. I think for your amateur crowd you would have to provide a bit more time. perhaps a week. just make it clear what is happening.

And that big clock, have you seen the big clock? if I ever made a dutch auction ticket site A big clock would feature predominantly in the ui. Unfortunately I don't think the flower auctions use the big clock anymore. which is a shame.
