Season ticket surge pricing


Happy Panther

Recommended Posts

Tickets came today (YAY!).

So preseason tickets are like $45.

Regular season is around $140.

Except for two games which are $150+. One of them is the opening game against Dallas. makes sense.

Yet the prime time game against the Saints is back to $140.

Don't really care but the pricing seemed strange.

I'm not cool with that.  Hornets do that bullshit too. If you're buying the entire damn season that's garbage. 

Wouldn't it not matter if purchasing the whole season and help value the tickets for resale more accurately?

This is kind of what I was saying when they “lowered” the preseason ticket prices.  I still paid the same total price for the season so no effect on the season ticket holders.  What it did though was make the regular season games more expensive for those buying single games etc.   

They just shifted the cost making it cost more for others.  It was an artificial way they raised tickets prices to others in addition to the normal increases.  Yeah it made preseason cheaper for those buying those individually but people were commonly reselling those for $40 bucks anyway.

Interestinly I did go look at my tickets more closely.  The lower preseason and higher regular season has been for several years.  I DID just notice what has been referred to in this thread and that some regular season games have different pricing.  That is new this year, for me at least. The Cowboys and Giants games are $20 more per seat than all the other regular season games.  

Interesting for sure.  Overall for still doesn’t matter because I’m buying the whole season.

Sure if you're reselling.  It punishes people who actually buy the tickets to go to the games though.

How? Is total price higher? I thought it was just pushing face values around.

Taking list price from a preseason game and moving it to another punishes?

It did for those buying single games because prior say pre season and reg were $74 seat but now preseason is $44 and reg is $94. ( I know my numbers don’t add up , but you get the point.  This is close to how it is for mine.).  So now the single game buyer is paying $20 more a seat than they would have before when were all same price. 

Not saying it is wrong. It was a way they increased the cost of regular season games in addition to the regular increase. You would have paid less if they didn’t do that.  Hurt the single game buyer, where as for the season ticket buyer they just shifted around the total cost.

 That's been going on for three years.  I'm sure my regular season at 104 each that I paid last year didn't drop just the cowboys and giants cost more.  That costs me more money.

    • With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.
    • Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.
    • Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
