Last-minute buyers get better Ravens playoff ticket deals
Ravens-Texans playoff ticket prices on StubHub, an online ticket marketplace, have come down 25 to 30 percent since the start of the week, company spokesperson Joellen Ferrer said Friday afternoon.
“The reason for the price drop is not a lack of demand, but it’s more a function of the marketplace in that tickets are a perishable commodity,” she said.
As of 1 p.m., the lowest price for an upper deck seat on StubHub was $139. If you want to be on the lower sideline for the sold-out game, prepare to dish out between $249 and $1,200 for seats. (By 1:20, the $1,200 tickets were gone.)
Lower sideline seats through TiqIQ, another online ticket marketplace, beat out those of StubHub by $50. Three lucky guests can sit in section 146, row 6 for the price of $1,250.
Ferrer said the top five markets for StubHub tickets are Maryland, Texas, Virginia, Pennsylvania and New York. Fifty-five percent of buyers are from Maryland, while 15 percent are from Texas. VA, PA, and NY come in at eight, five and four percent, respectively.
“People that have actually waited out until the last minute – it may have actually favored in their benefit,” Ferrer said.
