Dingo — Buy and sell tickets at face value

@jeshalom Hi Jack. From our research the vast majority of tickets on the secondary market are sold at face value or less. As an example, on Viagogo (largest ticket exchange in UK) not a single ticket was sold above face value in the week leading up to an event at The O2 in London last year. The fact is that only a small % of events can command large secondary market prices. Dingo is for fans looking to sell their spare tickets at face value or less; quickly, easily & with no fees. Tickets can be listed in seconds and we allow sellers to chat with buyers directly through the app to arrange delivery of the tickets in whatever way is most convenient (at venue, in town, email etc). We are not targeting sellers of sold out events who are looking to profit on the secondary market, we are catering to a different need.

@roiterpaul ah ok! I see your point. But if you're catering to shows that aren't popular, that usually means that not as many tickets were sold, which also means that not as many tickets will be sold on the secondary market. In any event, I'm curious to see what happens with Dingo.

@jaapvannes Hi Jaap, thanks for the heads up. Ticketswap looks cool. We are mobile-only vs their web platform. My only concern with TicketSwap is how they avoid duplication of tickets. If sellers receive the money immediately, what stops them from selling multiple e-tickets? With Dingo the seller receives the cash after the event so there is no incentive to act fraudulently (they wont get paid).
