Signed TTPD editions: Ideas on how to stop scalpers
I'm extremely frustrated (again), about the signed photo editions of TTPD. Because it must've been sold out so fast in the whole world. I saw it not too long after it was posted here on Tumblr, but it was sold out everywhere. Then I looked at Ebay, and despite the fact that it was only possible to buy one copy, Ebay is flooded with those signed TTPD versions. All of them for at least 230€ or $, up to over 1000€ or $.
Please @taylorswift / @taylornation / Universal Music do something to prevent scalpers from milking your fans and getting rich because people are buying from them. Because it should be your fans who'll get those items, because they really want to have them, and not some people or businesses who live from milking real fans and only buy the stocks empty, to get even richer than they already are and prevent fans from getting those signed or limited items. For me it feels almost like fraud by those scalpers.
My ideas:
To prevent bots from buying it: Introduce a system in all your stores (worldwide) that will send you a code to your email, or as an sms onto your phone, that the buyer has to type in, in order to finalize their order of limited or signed items. Maybe also introduce a captcha if someone wants to order limited or signed items. (Even though I hate captchas)
Check addresses! If someone has multiple accounts and orders with the same address, cancel all but one order from them. In my country (Germany), many stores did that when the Playstation 5 was available for pre-order and it worked to at least reduce that behaviour.
I don't know how it is with the laws, but if possible, forbid people from selling those signed items somewhere else for one or two years after it was originally sold, or only allow to sell it for a maximum of 10% more than the original price.
