With a 90,000 seat stadium there is only a few games where the demand will be greater then the supply. Then add in the 15% fee that stub hub takes from your sells. My tickets in row 12 of the 2nd level are $80...so I need to sell them for $94 each just to break even. There are very few games that i can get $94 per ticket for on Stub Hub. I love having my tickets and I will never give them up...but the idea that some people have that they are some sort of cash cow is just not true.

I didn't realize it was so hard to sell them for the Skins.

My knowledge is of Red Sox games, and you can sell bleacher seats for $75 for goodness sake. People will pay it too. It's extremely easy to sell your sox tickets for 2 and possibly 3 times thier face value.
