Moral Question - Selling season football tickets
Posted on 5/30/09 at 6:15 am

I have a moral question
If someone was going to sell their season football tickets just for this year, is it wrong for them to go to the highest bidder?
Or should they just sell them at face value TAF + ticket price. I mean I know several good honest people who sold their MNC tickets for more than face value....Thanks guys
Please keep the comments clean...This is a honest question

Are you the buyer or seller?

The seller....my gut and my moral compass tells me not to, but wanted some opinions

doesnt make you a bad person if you do decide to sell them for a bit more than face

I hear what your saying, but my father did not raise me like that. I guess I know what to do now.

making a profit has become a bad thing in these times. astounding.

I have no problems with getting market value for tickets. It's no different than getting the best value for your home or car.
It shouldn't be any different for tickets.

Face value

Now, if you're serious about this... and you really do have a problem with selling your tickets over face value, then this is kind of a strange question to ask.
Your moral compass says it's not right to sell over face value.
So don't sell over face value. The choice is entirely yours.
In asking whether it's okay or not to sell over face value, what you're really asking is whether or not your peers will think you are foolish for not making a profit on the tickets.
That shouldn't come into play here.
You have the right to do what YOU want according to YOUR standards and beliefs. Forget about what anyone else thinks.
So... just do what YOU feel is right. And you can't go wrong!

then don't do it. I mean if it's bothering you that much, then I think you know the answer.

BINGO on the profit thing. Selling above face only seems to offend those that don't have season tickets. Fact is that our donations are now so much more than our tickets that you have to sell for well above face to break even.

Not the best place to look for morality.

Seriously though. I don't think there is anything wrong with getting what you can for the tickets. That's the american way.
I probably wouldn't do it but wouldn't blame you if you did.
