Match Ticket Requests/Spares Thread

Everton don't get the massively increased ticket prices though?

Are we sure about that ? Surely we can’t be selling to a third party for £65 and they sell on for £4/5 hundred quid ? That’s insane and doesn’t make any sense whatsoever, needs a further investigation but if true, FFS !

"No, clubs generally do not sell tickets to Seat Unique at face value. Seat Unique operates as an official premium ticketing marketplace, partnering with clubs to sell VIP hospitality packages and premium seats. These tickets are often sold at inflated prices rather than standard face value."

So Seat Unique will be taking a cut for promoting the package, but the majority of the profit likely goes to the club based on that.

There are 100's of youtube influencer videos out there that rate the premium package alongside a general observation about the crowd, fans, stadium experience etc. Clubs probably see the Seat Unique package as an essential way to promote the club via social media.

If we become more global in our fanbase I'd expect those seats to be gobbled up more and more by international fans, with more money than sense hopefully.

Global in our fanbase. Jesus tonight, time to jack it in when that happens

They could sell for £1000 or £10m, the club wouldn’t see any difference, Seat Unique are making the money not Everton

Had 5 Italians behind me at the Chelsea game and the same in front, couldn't make the lingo out on them though.

Isn't there a law against that? If you paid 400 for a new TV and a week later it's 300 and not in a sale, I'm sure that's not legal.

The ASA/CAP have the power to fine businesses who engage in these unfair practices but it’s not a law per se

Only seat unique I bought was for my nephew and me to attend together the Newcastle game. Paid £30 more for it in advance in the official website than it became a week or two before the game.

I've just been stung with £123 for an adult and junior seat for palace game. The problem with the ballot is you find out how much once your successful. Price last year was about 100
