I agree completely this is 100% on the team and their poor treatment of season ticket holders, my worry is that we will suffer from it based on how they react to the shrinking revenue base.

Right, but those people drop their ST & instead buying on the secondary market is still a NET loss on ticket sales. Their stubhub purchase is simply a repackaging of another STH’s ticket(s).
Edit: and
gbservis already answered you with same NET loss

I dont disagree. Just dont think team performance is having much of a factor on people renewing their tickets or not. Especially, in this forum. It's secondary to all the other bullshit
Let's see if all these people, myself included, who dropped seats to buy off the secondary market rebalance the secondary market. Fewer listings, more buyers mean higher prices.
I wish I could see the renewal rates, no question it is terrible this season.

Just spoke to my rep about the downgrade to SS next season. Said there will be an email next month where I can relocate. Rep confided in me that all the reps are doing the same as me. SH was a disaster and makes no sense to hold higher cost seats when secondary market is so low.
Was looking at SH today, you can sit almost any section you want for $14-$19. maddening.

Reps have season tickets? I thought they all worked during the matches.
I was told this rep had tickets. Known this rep for a while, didn’t seem like a fib. Feel bad posting rep’s disclosure here, so doing my best not to use anything to identify that person.
Maybe they want it for friends and fam to go? Or get a special rep price they can keep even if they move to another job?
Some reps and others who work for the team have their own tickets. They use them when they rotate off games, for friends/family, and to join them for off games and parts of games.
My biggest gripe is not being able to sell my tickets easily and for what I want.
I have to be honest though. Watching the Montreal game and seeing Amagat running around the pitch, I second guessed my decision to renew. The tickets and playing in a baseball stadium is pushing it, but tolerable. If this is the product we are putting out, it's no longer tolerable.
As far as STH not renewing and buying secondary market tickets...that's a slippery slope. Most will not buy/attend the same amount of games and some will start going less and less as time goes by.

To dispel Jordan's tweet...
This year they enrolled everyone in relocation rather than having to sign up to relocate. This doesn't mean you have to relocate. Maybe it just makes the IT for season ticket persons easier if they want to relocate.
The way they are doing it this season makes more sense to me, in previous seasons it's always seemed like a weird process requiring you to opt in. The emails in past years made it sound like you should only opt in if you had full intention of moving. I have no idea if I want to move or not but each year I at least wanted to see my options. It's nice not having to opt in this time around.
Absolutely much better to have it done this way, but it also signals that they are bleeding ticket holders, as we expected.
It would be kinda amazing if clubs conducted discounted transfers on Black Friday.
Ben Sweat and Tommy McNamara.....today only!
Yes, 5:30pm on a Friday is extremely convenient for me
Friday is not even the first day. My appointment is Thursday. Not sure if that's even the first day.
