Re:Spotify will start reserving concert tickets for fans by mckn1ght on Friday May 22, 2026 @12:23PM (#48238029)
But buying from scalpers only really works when they’ve already bought out the supply. Couldn’t people just go right to the ticket site instead of through a scalper? The only way this would work is if the scalpers got all the tickets into the temporary hold, but that would be a huge coordination problem to do that and connect with potential buyers in the 7 minute window or whatever.
