Economists generally see ticket scalping as a way of increasing the efficiency of ticket distribution. This is because ticket scalpers are able to quickly allocate tickets to those who value them the most, based on their willingness to pay a higher price. This helps to ensure that tickets end up in the hands of those who value them the most, rather than those who may be less interested in the event but still happen to get them through the regular ticket distribution process.
