Nice that Cornell on the ticketing page lists the fees. That or the winds are blowing against ticketing fees and Cornell is being proactive. Or it's now required. (I added the markups.)

Code Select
Ticket Prices Available(opens in a new tab):
$20  (STUDENT TICKETS - SECTION 227*)        
$39  ($31 face value, $8 associated fees)     26% markup  
$65  ($56 face value, $9 associated fees)     16%
$85  ($76 face value, $9 associated fees)     11%
$105 ($92 face value, $13 associated fees)    14%
$125 ($111 face value, $14 associated fees)   13%  
$225 ($201 face value, $24 associated fees)   12%

I'm having trouble understanding how computer time & overhead amounts to more than a few pennies, not dollars, per ticket. Especially when you calculate the savings of not having phone order takers, ticket printing and mailing.

Q just sent out an email today with a link to buy tickets. They say prices range from $49 to $235. This article in New Haven Register has quotes from both coaches.

when schools farm out ticket taking costs go up.  They all do it now.   TM exists to make a profit and they do.

I looked at the prices for the games in Arizona.  They were at the high end of the range above.

Ice is much more expensive out there.

They have to import it from Canada.

To make Quinnipiac students feel like it's the [nameofacurrentbank]Arena and they're playing a home game, I hear there's special pricing if you want to leave midway through the second and get a head start on the Saturday night parties.
