I don't disagree


I have bought tickets for low level games at below face and for hard to get games for way above face. I have no problem with the free market.

However, the new system is going to require increased cost just to be able to purchase tickets - that is an artificial inflation of the cost NOT truly based on supply and demand.

If the demand for tickets to low interest games does not change a lot, then either the tickets will sell at similar prices to what they have selling (maybe a slight bump up due to everybody asking for a little more) - with understandable grumbling from sellers - or tickets will go unused. Secondary market prices for high demand games are likely to increase with sellers trying to make up costs somewhere.

I predict a lot more tickets being sold at very last minute - People rightfully expecting a little help with true cost of tickets, but not that great a change in demand - and sellers making what they can at last minute.
