Cowboys resale tickets prices raise as Cowboys win

[Bleu Star]

One would think that out of the goodness of his heart and to ensure rabid fans pack AT&T Stadium Jerry would give us a break on ticket prices. Jerry finds that notion amusing....

What does a 5-1 start for Dallas mean other than renewed playoff hopes for the faithful?

More demand for Dallas tickets. Whether the fans showing up to AT&T Stadium are pulling for theCowboys or their opponents, it's adding up to a higher ticket prices for those going to games.

According to www.tiqiq.com, which is a resale ticket market aggregator, the Cowboys ticket prices are at their highest average since the site starting tracking ticket prices in 2010. The current home ticket average for a game is $283.22, which is up more than eight percent since the season started.

That's also up nearly $20 a ticket since this time last year, when the average Cowboys ticket price was $264.06.

That tracks resale ticket prices unless I misread it. What does Jerry have to do with that?

I can remember back in the day going to DFW on a whims notice and getting tickets in the parking lot, sometimes 2 mins before kickoff for 20 bucks a ticket even once for $10.
Add in the parking, as well as any concessions and it can get pretty pricey nowadays.

Blaming Jerry Jones for prices in a resale ticket market ... Well, I guess a hater has to find something to hate since the team is doing well so far.

How does Jerry Jones profit from resale of tickets? Does he get a cut of the markup? Cowboys sell ticket to person A for $100. Person A sells the ticket for $150 to a private party. Does some of that $50 markup come back to Jerry?

You make it sound like it's the Cowboys' organization's fault.

 

[SDCowboy]

Is this thread for real?

 

[Red Dragon]

Thread fail, thread failed.

Its all relative. If Jerry lowered prices do you think resellers would raise theirs or lower them? As a reseller, I have to remain competitive or I will fold.

lol this is some of the worst spin to a failed thread I've ever seen. Come on, Bleu.

 

[Bleu Star]

Like I said, if Ticket prices were more reasonable across the board, resellers would be out of business. You're trying to tell me the spike in ticket prices has zero to do with Jerry? Really now...

The secondary market matches demand. It is virtually completely independent of face value.

Guess I felt the need to mix things up. (Shrug). I have been wanting to experience a game since AT&T opened but the prices continue to discourage that trip.

 

[Red Dragon]

It's virtually impossible to tell what the pre-resale difference was.

you are being laughed at (not with) because of this gem: Romo complains.. What does Jerry do? Surprise surprise..

Think it might be best if you just threw in the towel on this one bro. Have you seen the responses? You're not fooling anyone.

True true. But one would be hard pressed to find a positive tilt regarding face value ticket prices and rhat change since the new stadium came online.

Swing and a miss with this thread.

Another example of why we can't have nice things.
