The idea makes sense but I think you need to exclude rare big ticket transfers like real estate. The Eventbrite comparison honestly makes 22% sound reasonable.

The idea makes sense but I think you need to exclude rare big ticket transfers like real estate.
The Eventbrite comparison honestly makes 22% sound reasonable. Uber does a lot that Eventbrite doesn't do:
- Make the market (you don't go to Eventbrite to find an event to go to, you find an event you want to go to and get routed through Eventbrite)
- Provide a form of ID verification on both buyer and seller
- Resolve disputes (Eventbrite probably does something like this at much lower volume).
- Navigate the regulatory environment.
- Provide real time assistance throughout the transaction (ie navigation for both buyer and seller)
Not to mention, event at that 14% Eventbrite stock is down nearly 50% on the year.
