:thirishdrinkers: THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT I WANT TO HAPPEN!!! :thirishdrinkers:
“It’s simple economics that when you see [Monday] morning there are 1,900 seats on the market, and [late Monday afternoon] there are over 4,500, that should drive the price down immediately,” Patania said. “So something’s wrong with this market.”
TiqIQ.com spokesman Chris Matcovich — whose company tracks such secondary ticket markets as Stubhub, which generally parallels prices being offered by brokers — agreed that the lack of a “bump” in the first 24 hours after the conference title games was surprising.
“After looking over the numbers for this year from previous years, I think $1,500 will be a reasonable buy point in Week 2, unless demand from Broncos and Seahawks fans picks up,” Matcovich said of prices for upper-level seats.
That would be roughly on par with each of the more recent Super Bowls, said SeatGeek spokes¬man Connor Gregoire, who agrees that the ticket-cost trend is likely to fall by next week. The average ticket sale price for last year’s San Francisco versus Baltimore game in New Orleans, Gregoire notes, slid from a peak of $3,445 just after the conference championships, to just $1,551 per ticket on the day of the game.
The advice, then, for North Jerseyans (EDIT) and Seahawk fans who are tempted to buy a ticket is to be patient.
