Message: [QUOTE="Cusefan95, post: 5690368, member: 173"] It’s not uncommon for teams to set minimums on prices of tickets for resale on Ticketmaster - and it’s highly likely to continue to spread since people dumping tickets at a major loss can screw with their yield management algorithm. Businesses with fixed perishable capacity end up going down this road eventually. There is absolutely no chance of a successful lawsuit. The argument would be that all they are doing is impacting one platform, you can still sell at whatever you want on StubHub, Vivid, etc. They aren’t going to admit those sites are a bigger hassle to use and that does discourage some sellers (which is really the goal). But those options means a lawsuit is pointless. I’m mostly just amazed at how good teams are getting at accurately pricing tickets to market demand to maximize revenues. It leaves very little upside (if any) on the resale market. [/QUOTE]
