Default Ticket Selling Question

Just a question. I am not sure how this works.
Say I won tickets to Flames\concert from the radio. To me they are free but to someone else they are worth $$. Can you sell them for the face value of what those seats would be or is that considered scalping since usually it says on the tickets that the price is $0.00.

Posted this in here as I am not sure where it should go and this seemed the most likely spot

SO does that mean the price printed on the ticket or the price that they would normally go for?

I assume what they'd normally go for, but you'd have to msg a mod like ken0042 to double check.

Yes, face value is the most they can go for. The exception we have allowed is if somebody from out of town is selling Heritage Classic tickets; we allow them to add on shipping as we feel it is in everybody's interest to have them sent with tracking and insurance.

There is no "what they are going for"; that would be pretty much directly against what the rules say. Face value or lower.

Edit- I just realized that what you probably meant "what they are going for" as the normal face value. Yes, if the same tickets are selling for $50 plus fees on Ticketmaster, then you can sell them for $50.
