#12From their About section: We estimate that we are able to track over 80% of all tickets that are resold on the internet, and this percentage will continue to grow as we develop additional methods of gathering data. I wonder what is the percentage of tickets sold that are actually resold. If they are getting 80% of some small subsection of tickets sold, the data is must less interesting. edit: styling
Well, you know the face value of a ticket, so even if you had "percentage of resale" tickets or whatever, it's useful information for would-be purchasers.

#13Hey I'm the founder of TicketData. This is a side project to our main startup / YC app (hence the barebones design, less than optimal performance, etc). Any feedback / comments / suggestions are greatly appreciated. Thanks!
What is the main startup?

I'm guessing there's a cost to getting that additional data (in the form of scraping resources)
