When I've been to change seats on the "pick a seat" day or whatever the hell it's called, I seem to recall very few of those seats being available. Certainly not the number represented by the empty ones.

I think they don't always put all the signs out to give the appearance of limited inventory. The high dollar stuff is the least risk of being puchased in a cattle call.

I have witnessed people purchase such seats with no `marker' on them at such an event. I've just gone to watch, chatted people up who were purchasing.

I think they try to get a set number of them out to keep up appearances so there is sublte pressure to buy. Consider: the the top row in any price level have any tags? No. Clearly they aren't listing all the inventory. They are listing enough to make the commodity appear scarce. Perpetually.
