I'm not sure why people on CP get up in arms about selling above face value.
Let me preface this by saying, I will always respect the rules that the mods and owners of this forum have in terms of only being able to sell for face.
In terms of valid discussion:
There is SO much hypocrisy here on the CP community (from my experience) on being the first to jump at opportunities to buy tickets for BELOW face or even in some cases (where this has happened to me personally) BELOW COST for low demand games.
But when it comes to higher demand games, or better yet this year playoffs it's absolutely "scummy" for us season ticket holders at best to recoup cost we probably have been losing for years?
On top of the fact that some of us shell out tens of thousands of dollars on Flames' tickets a year? I can't speak for everyone but I spend close to if not over 10% of my gross income on the Flames a year...so I'm not looking to get greedy and triple my return suddenly on playoff tickets.
Anyway, squiggs96 made some great suggestions on how maybe one could control this to avoid people taking advantage of the system or preventing resellers from popping up.
I felt compelled to post when I saw a morality discussion pop up here comparing people wanting to sell for above face value to drunk drivers...did that actually happen?!
