Warriors playoff tickets prices same or less than last year
The Golden State Warriors are keeping ticket prices for the playoffs that start next weekend the same or less than last year.
Season-ticket holders will pay the same as last year for the first three rounds of playoffs and about 14 percent less for the NBA Finals, if the team makes it that far.
The cheapest ticket for round one will be $125 this year versus $175 last year, said Brandon Schneider, the team’s senior vice president for business development.
To afford playoff games last year, some fans tried to resell tickets to other games at higher prices, but so many people had the same idea that they did not get what they were hoping for.
Last year, he sold about half of his playoff tickets to help finance the other half, but had to drop his price because there were so many on the market.
In setting ticket prices, the Warriors analyze transactions on Warriors.com, the team’s resale marketplace powered by Ticketmaster.
