Reason why Taylor Swift and TicketMaster had the whole fiasco? Do you want to hear the deep dark secret? Really deep and dark? They didn't charge enough for the tickets... That would make TS look like a money grabber. But really, that is what they needed to do. So for in order to not make TS look like a money grabber. They priced the tickets too low and then blamed Ticket Master when their servers crashed, and let middle men make money, by buying up the tickets and reselling them on the black market for the price the market would bear.
Of course it would be controversial, if like the cheapest tickets cost $1000. But really that would be the way to go. And if the tickets didn't sell out- which is doubtful, even at that price. Well then they could lower them at a discount. It is more about supply and demand, than being greedy. Because TS and her team didn't want to be seen as greedy, they didn't charge enough for the tickets and blamed TicketMaster for this fiasco.
The thing is. If you don't want to appear to be greedy. That's a sign that you are worried about being seen as greedy. Which means you do what to do, to hide that greed. It's not about greed. It's about supply and demand, but I guess a smart person knows to also spread the wealth around. Make even the middle men happy? at the expense of the evil ticket selling corporation TicketMaster.
Summary: Really, next Tour just charge $1000 per ticket for nosebleed seats at a TS concert and we can talk about how much you have to pay to see TS. Which is what is going to happen in the end anyways for most fans. Just TS and her Team look better (less greedy) and the middle men (ticket resellers) get their money, and Ticket Master looks bad. Got to blame someone for the fact that everyone's daughter wants to go to the TS concert! and there is only so much of TS to go around! Is this her last tour for awhile? Does she want to start a family? Inquiring minds want to know...
Peace,
