Great point. Face value is spread out over 10 games, including preseason, so in my example my tickets have a face value of $80 (before pg country taxes and absurd fees). Anyone here ponying up $80 for the Jacksonville preason game? Didn't think so... so season ticket holders have to amortize that over the rest of the season by selling for greater then the "redskins face". And the fact is a lot of Skins fans don't want to pay to go, but our opponents do.
