I'm not sure this is entirely true. If ticket brokers corner the market (or buy enough to be able to influence price) then it is the brokers driving it up. Or at least contributing to the steepness of the price.

Sorry pal. This is pure capitalism. Its supply and demand only. If no demand then prices drop like a MF. There are plenty of sellers at the right price.

Not sure posters here understand how the ticket brokers like Stub Hub and others work. They never buy the tickets but instead only provide a mechanism for ticket owners to advertise and sell to ticket buyers and charge both sides a fee for that service.
If the prices are high, it is only because the sellers want more and the buyers are willing to pay it. If the ticket broker fee is too high, then there are dozens of other brokers offering the exact same tickets for sale and buyers and sellers should shop around.
So online ticket brokers are not ticket buyers.
