Abstract: A method of ticket assessment includes accessing historical transaction information and prices for available tickets for an upcoming event. The method includes calculating a historical ticket value for seats at a venue and a current ticket value and a deal score for the available tickets. The method includes receiving a preference that pertains to a ticket for the upcoming event. The method includes determining whether the available tickets include characteristics within the preference. If a first subset of the available tickets includes characteristics within the preference, the method includes communicating to the user device recommendation data including ticket listings for tickets in the first subset. The recommendation data is configurable in a window of a graphical user interface. If a second subset of the available tickets does not include characteristics within the preference, the method includes filtering the second subset of the available tickets from the recommendation data.
