uber_shnuber Posted February 9 Posted February 9 Scotland V Haiti seems to be the biggest mover of the whole World Cup on the resale sites 😮 prices up 34% in the last 3 days... It would suggest not everyone is holding out in the hope of prices coming down... https://www.ticketdata.com/performer/world-cup-soccer?sort_by=3day_price_change&sort_order=desc Quote
giblet Posted February 9 Posted February 9 thats a good site, appreciate sharing. Scotland v Brazil 4th highest group stage minimum price. Quote
Malagaa Posted February 9 Posted February 9 It's not far off double the price of the actual tout sites. Not making sense to me Quote

Still can't believe some of these prices can hold up. Senegal v Iraq/Bolivia/Suriname, tickets from $450 😲 Quote

rOsCo2 Posted February 10 Posted February 10 From what I can see it is still not possible to list tickets bought in the recent ballot. It will be interesting to see price movement when they start dropping in. Quote

I do wonder if FIFA will not allow this before the resale closes in two weeks time just to keep prices high ahead of the final first come first served sale process. Quote

Have they given as excuse to close it? Seems strange it’s closed for so long but likely it’s commercially beneficial to them. Quote

Wonder if it’s a case of waiting for payments to clear. Would be handy if anyone on here that got via the RSD could let us know if/when they’re able to transfer/resell. Would be a great way of monitoring if there’s any pricing movements on the resale market. Quote
calum83 Posted February 10 Posted February 10 I bought one the resale not cheap I guess I jumped not to miss out Quote

I suspect it is indeed waiting for payment to clear, as it is still listed as pending on my CC. I suspect prices will drop (at least temporarily) when the supply greatly increases the next few days Quote

TBF, Miami in particular has a gigantic Brazilian population. Another reason probably why Infantino opted for our game to be played there rather than the bigger stadium in Atlanta. Quote
Maradonnagoldenhand Posted February 11 Posted February 11 I got a category 2 ticket from vivid seats for £550 including all fees on Sunday and had the ticket transferred. To my FIFA account yesterday, was quoted about £850 in the fifa resale site for a category 3 ticket. Quote
Craig Fae Hamilton Posted February 11 Author Posted February 11 I am starting to see tickets being sold that were just bought in the latest Ticket Lottery. Namely Haiti v Scotland. Quote
Northern Light Posted February 11 Posted February 11 It's also interesting to see there are more lines of tickets available in each category now, I wonder if that indicates more tickets for sale now that you can post the recent ballot tickets Quote
Craig Fae Hamilton Posted February 12 Author Posted February 12 (edited) CAT 2's on FIFA for $732 this morning. (HAITI) Too much for Me but if someone applied for a $500 Cat 1 and were un-successful, you maybe interested in this? That is the final price. Beware though, Club World Cup / World Cup: https://www.facebook.com/WIONews/videos/cwc-tickets-slashed-from-473-to-13-yet-chelsea-unsure-of-full-house/1261019512245161/ Edited February 12 by Craig Fae Hamilton Quote
Craig Fae Hamilton Posted February 12 Author Posted February 12 I found another interesting article on Club World Cup ticket sales. We would need to wait until after the World Cup has been running for a couple of weeks before we know if this is relevant even in a small way. But interesting all the same: https://www.espn.co.uk/football/story/_/id/45568344/saturation-soccer-why-empty-seats-litter-club-world-cup-gold-cup Quote

I think you could possibly compare it in a small way. But clearly a huge difference. This is another story I read, can see a lot of similarities although admittedly, it is the Club World Cup: https://www.sounderatheart.com/2025/07/fifa-has-led-us-all-into-deeper-waters-through-club-world-cup/ You read voices from actual 'Soccer' Fans in it. And it appears many of them were totally burned. Quote
Craig Fae Hamilton Posted February 12 Author Posted February 12 I actually meant to post this story. Like I said, IDK if it will hold even a little relevance: https://www.sounderatheart.com/2025/05/club-world-cup-ticket-prices-are-finally-dropping/ Quote
uber_shnuber Posted February 12 Posted February 12 (edited) The Club World Cup isn't really comparable at all. The similarities start and end at location, in my opinion. These articles are also to do with dynamic pricing for tickets sold by FIFA. Assuming no tickets have been held back (which of course only FIFA know), the suggestion is that the most (if not all) of the games were oversubscribed at all price points and hence sold out. Therefore FIFA are no longer in control of the prices, so these articles aren't really relevant? Personally I'd be surprised if a notable number of tickets had been held back from the RSD. The suggestion is that any tickets in the First Come First Served sale will just be any that weren't sold (minimal I suspect), returned corporate, and failed payment tickets. I'm sure there will be a few but I'd be surprised if it's very many. I think ticket prices are now solely in the hands of the resellers... As I've said before though, no one outside FIFA knows the full details, and only time will tell what happens to resale prices. Personally, I'd expect them to peak over the next week or so, and then slowly drop closer to face value before levelling off until close to the tournament. Prices still rising almost across the board: https://www.ticketdata.com/performer/world-cup-soccer Edited February 12 by uber_shnuber Quote
