Thats the problem is selling them at face value is a loss to me. Last year I figured if I added in my cost for taxes and preaseason games (which no one wanted or not willing to pay for) my cost was about $100 per ticket. I sold a few at $100 but I also sold a few for less than face value. I figured that the games I went to cost me around $280 per ticket figuring what I paid for them and what I was able to sell for the season. That allot for upper deck just to say I have season tickets.

I sell the entire package at face value and have never had any trouble finding someone to buy them.

If you try that on a site like StubHub and the team somehow finds out they'll revoke them from you anyway.

Is that really true? I have never heard of this before. My uncle handed down Red Sox season tickets to me, and when I left Boston, I handed them down to my brother. He goes to about 15-20 games a year and sells the rest on stub hub...been doing it for years. No one has ever said that he couldn't or they would be revoked. They are his to do with as he pleases.

I'd go through stub hub...if it is true that they could be revoked, so what...you were already thinking of cancelling them anyway.

Yes it does happen to people that sell all of their tickets every year and do not attend the games. Not sure how close it is monitored but I have read about people having their season tickets revoked. I remeber one where the tickets had been in the family for year but they never went to any games so the Skins revoked like 8 season tickets. You can pass the season tickets down to family members but I think you pay like $125 for them to process the name change. Thats one of the reason that you see so many non Reskins fans at the game because allot of people scalp all of their tickets every year.
