AI Summary

World Cup final tickets are being resold at staggering prices, with some listings exceeding $2 million each. Specifically, four Category 1 seats behind the goal at MetLife Stadium for the July 19 match are priced at $2,299,998.85 each, totaling over $9 million for all four. The FIFA Marketplace allows ticket holders to set their own prices, leading to some seats listed for as low as $11,000. This pricing strategy has raised concerns about affordability, especially since FIFA had marketed this World Cup as the most accessible in history. The resale platform is open to residents in North America, but Mexican residents face restrictions on pricing.

Key Details: • World Cup final tickets available for resale starting at $11,000. • Category 1 seats listed for $2,299,998.85 each. • Event scheduled for July 19 at MetLife Stadium. • FIFA takes a 15% commission on resale transactions. • Local laws prevent Mexican residents from charging above face value.
