The disconnect between the ticket office and reality is disturbing. How can they be this clueless regarding the product they're offering?

Tickets for ALL games our potent squad will play this season are worth AT LEAST $200 each.
Where else could you find basketball of THIS quality?
MilitantEagle {l Wrote}:There are promos for season tickets starting as low as $153. More than reasonable. But don't let facts get in the way of agendas.

I'll be honest, considering the product that's on the floor, that is way too high. You can buy most tickets for $1 on the secondary market, why am I going to drop $153 on season tickets?
They should start at like $75-$100. They haven't had a relevant basketball team in a decade. Get people in the door first then raise the prices if you want.
I go to every game and as lunatic of a fan as you'll find about BC Basketball and there's no way I would touch season tickets at that price.
twballgame9 {l Wrote}:Why protect against that? Those seats will be on the secondary market with people looking to dump them for the games other than the ones that the Duke/Cuse fans wanted. Thus, they are already paid for, and there is actually a chance a BC fan may fill them since the pricepoint will be more reasonable as the Duke/Cuse fan is just looking to dump them. Win/win. It's certainly better than empty, which is what will happen now.

You think all those people who bought a season ticket for $75 are going to take the time to resell the others? Probably not worth the time for a lot of people.

So empty and paid for instead of empty and not paid for.

Or just let the Duke fan buy a single game ticket for $100 and you make an extra $25 with the oppurtunity to also sell $100 single game tickets to Cuse fans, etc.
twballgame9 {l Wrote}:epstein's idea makes sense - target the BC fan. Keeping the prices artificially inflated in the face of zero demand to prevent opponents from purchasing not only doesn't actually work, it does the opposite. It prevents the BC fans from purchasing.
I'd probably grab tickets if they were cheap enough, but i can't do too many hoop games during the week, so a shit product has to have the right price point. Rather spend that $400 bucks on dinner this weekend.
MilitantEagle {l Wrote}:The idea that lowering season ticket prices from $153, which is more than reasonable, to $75 would make any difference is laughable.
People can go to any game they want for pretty cheap if they cared. The problem is NOBODY FUCKING CARES. That is the main problem. Arguing over nickels and dimes is stupid.

I'm going to a free game this weekend that will be terrible. Because it is free. I would probably get 2 season tickets for $150 just for the hell of it and end up going more than I might think. For $400 or for $100 for a game like Duke, I'll go out to a sweet dinner and turn on the TV.
There is a price point for everything. We agree no one cares, the question is how to sell them. What they are doing is embarrassingly bad, although the idea for Saturday is a start.
