<prompt> Human: So I purchased concert tix for my wife and I for our anniversary at 350 a pop. Ticket sales must have been slow, so the artist dropped ticket prices for my sectionrow to 190. I emailed TM, and they pretty much told me this is just dynamic pricing and that I wouldnt like it if the tickets went up and then TM charged me more, so they also dont refund if they go down. That sort of rubbed me the wrong way...I get it, prices can change, but this is a fairly substantial price difference and I feel as though they are essentially penalizing an early adopter of any given concert. Should I drop this or escalate?  <response>: Ticketmaster is bad, but this isnt a shady practice and you didnt get scammed at all.Matching a lower price at a subsequent date isnt really a standard practice in any industry. Sometimes its offered as a perk, and some purchase methods may offer it e.g., certain credit cards, but it is totally unreasonable to just expect it without any prior agreement that such a protection would be available.
