How much would you sell your ticket for tomorrows match for? (hypothetical)

[Exile]

Ah. I voted (£300) before I read the part about the threat of a ban still applying.

I voted on the theoretical basis, that I could sell it with no come back.

If that threat is still to be considered it would have to be a STUPID amount of money.

I have quite a few folk on my friends and family part of the ticketing website. I'd gladly sell their tickets at face value, not withstanding the risk that they might get banned. Generous to a fault, me.

I voted for "not for all the money in the world", based on experiences being more valuable than notes in a wallet.
I was at the Goldstone, in the North Stand for our first top flight game against Arsenal. An experience I still remember vividly, and would not retrospectively sell for any amount of money.

However, I will recant my original vote, because truly life changing amounts of money can buy other experiences.
It would have to be enough to compensate for potentially never being able to attend a live Albion match again.

So what is a truly life changing amount of money?
That's going to differ for each individual asked the question.

I think if someone came to me with 50k, I would turn them away.
100k would provoke some hard thinking.
250k, and my resolve would melt away... (and then I would steal my daughters ticket )

If it was an astronomical amount, then in reality it's hard to turn down.

But certainly not for £600

 

[Stat Brother]

If £600 is the going rate, I'd accept that.

It's one thing to be all billy big bollox when it's hypothetical money.
I wonder what fans resolve would be like stood in front of someone counting out the notes.

What are the chances of getting a lifetime ban?

Has anyone actually got a ban for selling a ticket?

 

[Herne Hill Seagull]

Despite having moved abroad I've kept my season ticket, with no guarantee of seeing more than three or four games this season, and flown back from Spain for this game. I believe that answers that question. No chance I'm missing this one - opponents were irrelevant.This is the best expression of the potential future that we fought for.

 

[Lethargic]

If I am able to go then I wouldn't sell it at all. These sort of days only come round once every 34 years, to me life is about experiences and tomorrow is an experience I dont want to miss.

Not so sure. I'll stick with at least a grand. Really wouldn't want to miss it.

I wouldn't sell a ticket for an Albion match, however much I was offered, least of all for tomorrow's game. As with other posts, if I can't go I give my ticket to someone and always have done.

 

[BUTTERBALL]

No money could buy my ticket. I've waited 33 years for this.

 

[Herne Hill Seagull]

Indeed, but no amount of money can buy the feeling of what games like this mean, particularly to the old hands. You simply couldn't replace that with something else. With anything else.Even if I could see the future, and knew we'd lose this 0-4, I still wouldn't miss it. Result regardless, relegation regardless frankly- we, the fans, have already won. I'm not missing out on the prize for anything.

Well we ended up with a spare ticket - that we paid £45 for and sold it for £40 to recoup our costs. Thought this was fair.

A STH buys a guest ticket then sells it privately for profit how are you going to get a life ban?

If the buyer is an away fan knob and gets carted out for example - seat will be traced back to purchaser

I'm so much cheaper than you lot. A couple of hundred quid and it's yours. This game just isn't a big deal for me.

Maybe because Brighton isn't your first team ?

Actually I should want more, given that we're watching my first and second team!
