league/state policy on selling tickets

Post by Nostalgic Nerd »

I put this here since the other area seemed more for the selling of the tickets than what I'm asking.

If I sell my tickets at or by the X outdoors, and below face value, how does that work with law?

not sure the 'law' will care, but one of the hundred other scalpers out there might want to kick you in the arse

I've been going to the tournament for over 40 years and have sold and bought tickets at varies times and for the most part the scalpers just walk away from the individual who is selling a ticket or two once they realize they can't match price.

I've never sold for more than face and for consolation games I try to give them away to kids either after a team loses or if I go I just hand them out to families walking up to arena.

Considering scalping has been legal since 2007, there is nothing concerning the law. Sell them for whatever price you want.

It's my understanding that the Xcel does not allow tickets to be sold on it;s property. Now if there is a line 15 deep at the ticket window and someone has an extra ticket or two selling for face value (or less) I don't think any one really cares about that.
