this is a quick overview of the mehtod, some used to make thousands on ticketmaster.
lets login and add a resell ticket to the cart.
the url will look something like this:
https://secure.ticketmaster.de/522773/lkd8k00m?qty=1
the 522773
is the event id, and the lkd8k00m
is the encrypted ticket id.
if we now do a qick search in the source code, we will find the following:
next to the "eventId"
key, we can see the "id"
key, which is the decrypted of the lkd8k00m
ticket id.
now lets replace the lkd8k00m
with the decrypted id, and we will get the following url:
https://secure.ticketmaster.de/522773/34554999?qty=1
reload the page and ta-da, its still the same page.
using this method, we can monitor multiple events at once, since this id is the same for each region and its just counting up. that means 34554999 is our ticket in germany for event 522773, and 34555000 is the id for any other ticket for any event in any region.
now we can use this to monitor multiple events at once, and once we get a hit, (no 404), we can reserve it and buy it.
to get the newest ticket id, you will need to build a bot that creates a selling offer for a resell ticket and instantly deletes it. this will give you the newest ticket id.
