Apologies to most of r/nba who wont care, but man I’m disappointed with the NBA Paris game. Waited for public tickets to go on sale today only to see that all tickets in the <400 range were sold out. Tickets start now at $450 USD for mediocre seats. Bots already selling nosebleed tickets at triple the price on Stubhub. Is this just what NBA games cost now?
Sheesh.
Unfortunately it’s just supply and demand. They know it’ll sell out anyways so why not. It sucks but yeah, I hate how it prices out regular people.
I honestly love what the Premier League does. It’s one of the most popular sports league in the world and the league controls ticket prices for all matches. There is hardly any resale market, and what little there is, is controlled by the clubs. I saw Manchester City in London earlier this year, third row for £90 and that was the most expensive sections they had.
