The Ticket in Numbers
The fair basis is the first sale’s total: face value plus the first seller’s fees and taxes. Both of the law’s lines are set from it, and the engine splits the premium the buyer paid into the part the moment explains and the part it leaves unexplained.
| Line | Amount | What sets it |
|---|---|---|
| First sale, the fair basis | $178.37 | Face value plus the first seller’s fees and taxes |
| Price line, 110% of the basis | $196.21 | D.C. Code 28-5506(b) |
| Fee line, 10% of the basis | $17.84 | D.C. Code 28-5506(c) |
| Buyer ceiling, 120% of the basis | $214.04 | The two lines together |
| Resale price | $255.75 | $59.54 over the price line |
| Marketplace fee | $16.95 | Within its line |
| Buyer paid | $272.70 | $94.33 over the first sale |
| Timing, S(t) | $18.14 | The median premium for tickets 8 to 30 days out with the primary sold out |
| Unexplained, D(u) | $76.19 | The rest of the premium, which no public input explains |
The Sound Key
| Sound | What it marks |
|---|---|
| A clean low tone | The first sale, the fair basis |
| A warmer second tone joining it | The room the law allows: 10% on the price and 10% in fees |
| A tick that quickens | Timing, S(t): a sold-out show with the date drawing near |
| A casino texture, cut to silence | The unexplained part, D(u) |
| One hard hit | The price crossing the line: $59.54 |
| A stamp | The finding sealed as evidence |

The RESALE Act’s lines apply from 1 January 2027, and any reading of an earlier price against them is counterfactual. The films are narrated in a synthetic voice.
