“Until you get organizations that buy up hundreds, or thousands, of tickets...”

Yeah that sucks. So don’t allow it. Only sales of 10 (or whatever) to each individual. Stores with limited-stock items do it all the time.

Doesn't work. Here in Toronto the ticket agents limit sales to 4 per buyer, so the scalpers pay people to line up and buy the limit. I did that a couple of times in my younger days- spent the night waiting for the agency to open, bought four Paul Simon tickets and made $100. There were about two hundred people in line and only one person was actually planning to attend the show.
