Yankees Launch Season Ticket Partner System

[GordonGecko]

This thing is pretty cool, I've used it for another team:

It's great on the sell and buy side, but there probably won't be nearly enough buyers to make it interesting as a seller.

Unless I'm doing something stupidly wrong, it is not working.

I tried it too, for some reason it seems like a really dumbed down version of say, the Nationals system. I didn't get to chose specific games to offer nor set any of the prices. There was no individual ticket management (like being able to set the status of each seat of each game). The only option I had was to say where my seats were, what plan I had, and how many games I wanted to sell

As a seller I signed up more than a month ago. Since then, I've had 2 replies. What bugs me, besides not getting to offer specific games, is that this system, apparently, gives them no idea what the face price is. Both prospective buyers declined and gave the same reason: great seats--had no idea they were so expensive. Had they known face they never would have wasted my time...or theirs.

Why don't you add the price to the comments section?

This is not a launch of a Season Ticket Partner system. It's been on yankees.com for years. One of the issues is that it is usually buried on the site, I know it is there and can't navigate to it quickly. Plus it is poor due to lack of activity.

There is a better system http://public.splitseasontickets.com/
I know they are trying to sell their system to the Yankees but they did not buy it this year.
It is used in MLB by the Giants, Cardinals, Rockies, Indians, Twins, & Mariners. In the NHL, by the Ducks, Flyers, & Capitals. In the NBA by the Bulls & Wizards.

That's the one I thought the Yankees were using - guess not. Well this sucks

It's a crazy looking link, but this gets you to the Yankees Season Ticket Partner Zone:

Could be a useful tool if season ticket holders use it and buyers learn about it.

The "&partnerId=ed-6724143-539824310&source=ed-6724143-539824310" part of the link is just tracking information for them to know it came from a marketing email sent to you

this is a shorter address:

My partner is whoever is selling 99 cent tickets on Stubhub.
