@potatokmish @dunbelievable @doklerpoker @StubHub Could be based on affiliate links you clicked on too?

They are paying a large percentage to affiliate partners and could be making you pay for it?

For instance they partner with all these fake artist sites and pay affiliate fees to them https://t.co/fTOLbNxxHF

@TicketTalkNet @tickets8168759 @Yankees @nyknicks @SeatGeek Actually was just thinking it’s a good chance to go to a game during the playoffs.

It’s possible the Yankees are selling these directly through their StubHub integration too

[Randy Nichols @forcemm]

@TicketTalkNet @seated @StubHub @fanfeedhq lol, nah they are the good guys over at Seated

[Randy Nichols @forcemm]

Can someone explain why there aren't any Phoebe Bridgers MSG tix on resale sites like @StubHub

[Randy Nichols @forcemm]

@TicketTalkNet @seated @StubHub Define the scam?

[Randy Nichols @forcemm]

@seated @StubHub How long until the secondary attacks you for unfair practices?

[Randy Nichols @forcemm]

@JenniferHus7f @StubHub Let’s talk about it here where everyone can see. How much money and how will you be delivering the tix?

[Randy Nichols @forcemm]

@UnderFaceValue @Ticket_Help2022 Agreed shareholders always need to see upward growth but you can see that selling more tickets at a lower price or less at a higher price. Somewhere in the middle is what really will happen

[Randy Nichols @forcemm]

@UnderFaceValue @Ticket_Help2022 Fair BUT when we win, significantly more fans will be paying less on hot shows where they lose to scalpers

[Randy Nichols @forcemm]

@SoonerFletch @danolm1 @TicketTalkNet @gracieabrams @Ticketmaster We’re not making personal attacks when we say your biz is based on exploiting people.

If you cut a fan in line to buy a ticket faster than the fan and then resell it to that fan at a profit. That is exploitating the fan.

I’m describing what you do for a living, not name calling

[Randy Nichols @forcemm]

@DoucheCanoe42 @TicketTalkNet @gracieabrams @Ticketmaster It is gross and it’s done for one reason only. To keep the scalpers out of the ecosystem.

I dont understand why scalpers feel they have a right to sell tickets to other peoples events.

[Randy Nichols @forcemm]

@UnderFaceValue @Ticket_Help2022 Agreed, sometimes it works for the fans but they would all be happier if they didn’t have competition buying tickets from people whose only goal is to exploit them. Sure they may get lucky and get a cheaper ticket if that non fan who cut them in line made a mistake

[Randy Nichols @forcemm]

@SoonerFletch @danolm1 @TicketTalkNet @gracieabrams @Ticketmaster Ok so if the primary offered refund then you don’t have a right to be a reseller?

You just pull the lines out of your ass to justify a career built on exploiting people.

We build careers and events, you search for loopholes to take advantage of real work and talent

[Randy Nichols @forcemm]

@SoonerFletch @danolm1 @TicketTalkNet @gracieabrams @Ticketmaster You’re listing hotel rooms on a resale platform or are you acting as a travel agent and merging a ticket and hotel rooms.

Without the ticket you’re simply a travel agent booking a room

[Randy Nichols @forcemm]

@SoonerFletch @danolm1 @TicketTalkNet @gracieabrams @Ticketmaster Ok, back to the many questions asked of you that you refuse to answer.

Do you buy tix from B2B marketplaces?

How do you know those tix weren’t acquired via bots? Because the info I see is many are and then sold in mass volume to create “liquidity”

[Randy Nichols @forcemm]

@CiscoYork While I agree with you in principal the government then needs to shut down the companies that build tools to transfer untransferable tickets.

We’re losing the arms race with scalpers because they spend 10s of millions of dollars a year lobbying for the right to rip off fans

[Randy Nichols @forcemm]

@TicketTalkNet @gracieabrams @Ticketmaster Scott, agreed prices are too high. Let’s drop them and cap resale so you 🤡 stop ripping off fans when we don’t jack them up to “market rate” or in this case maybe above market rate

[Randy Nichols @forcemm]

@SoonerFletch @danolm1 @TicketTalkNet @gracieabrams @Ticketmaster Mike, why can’t you create a market for hotel rooms or flights? Are those not free markets Are airlines communist entities?

We understand economics just fine, you’re just unable to defend your predatory actions with anything other than shouting “free market” while distorting it

[Dan @danolm1]

@SoonerFletch @TicketTalkNet @forcemm @gracieabrams @Ticketmaster What will you do with that ticket if it’s $150 Mike?

Oh that’s right, you won’t say. You’d rather spew bullshit and run away.

It’s not that resellers make money. It’s that they are all afraid to be honest.

It’s a staple of douche bags like you Mike.

[Randy Nichols @forcemm]

@SoonerFletch @danolm1 @TicketTalkNet @gracieabrams @Ticketmaster We understand it perfectly, an outsider is using illegal tools to take advantage of customers and calling those actions “free market”.

It’s explanation and not a free market service and you’re not a competitor to tix companies you’re a competitor to other fans
