Very true, and I still haven't pulled the trigger on that, but I'm thinking about it. I have season tickets to the Redskins, and I simply can't afford to go to every game (about four years ago they raised the price per seat $25 in a single off-season). I end up trying to sell them on Craigslist, and usually it goes pretty well. I thought this year would be better because they got a fantastic new quarterback, but so far I've gotten fewer bites than usual. Maybe because the buyers have all gone to StubHub, too.

The one thing that's always bothered me about StubHub is that before they were around, it used to be written into the season ticket holder agreement that if the organization found that you were scalping your tickets, you would lose the rights to your seats. Now I see tickets on StubHub going for way over face value, but it seems like it's okay because StubHub AND the Redskins are making a little money on those sales too. Lame.

Oh, and I just remembered. The official ticket resale site of the Redskins is some Ticketmaster service that ends up taking a huge chunk of the sale.
