I'm considering purchasing season tix to Bama from stubhub, going to one game, and selling the rest. But, it will only be for one seat. How hard is it to sell single tickets. Will I be able to make most if not all my money back?

Why wouldn't you just buy one ticket to the game you want to go to?

If you get tickets from Tide Pride it is easy to make money...if you are buying from stubhub..not so much.

Or you could just buy a ticket to the game you want to go to.

Seems like a huge hassle just for the possibility of making an extra $100. Huge risk for a small reward.

Just buy tickets for the games you wanna attend.

Not really trying to come out with more money. Just a free ticket.

Too late for that this year huh?

I'm wanting to go to the aTm game. And calculating by ticket prices on SH.com I would definitely make all the money bac. Half of it on the IB. But that all depends on if I can sell em all.

Split the season Tickets with somebody. Then you only have to worry about selling a couple games and not 5-6

That's a good idea, except I live in Louisiana and pretty sure I'm not gonna find someone that wants to split Bama season tix.

I'll probably just buy a single and get season tix next year

As a sidewalker I buy my season tix off of Stubhub every year. never occured to me to try what you are talking about. I am just thankful for SH. For many years I had to go over without tickets and depend on buying them outside from scalpers, most of the time

Buy season tickets and go to the games. Buy 4, use 2, sell 2

Not gonna fork out the dough in the initial investment that it would take for that. Good idea though. I knew I shoulda just bought em from tide pride before the season.
Next year I won't make that mistake.

How much does it cost to buy season tickets from stubhub? Do you get away games in there too?

I get season tickets through UGA, but I'm curious to see how the prices stack up compared to something aftermarket. I do get guaranteed awesome seats though so that's nice.

You'll be selling to fans of the other school mostly. As long as you're ok with that.

I'd never do it

If you're smart about avoiding scammers, that's cheaper by far. Stubhub prices are usually double what you can get outside.

I've sold almost all of mine on StubHub. Between $125 and $150 for Ole Miss and Miss State. TAMU went for $239. But I have 3 tickets, and sets of 3 aren't that plentiful. If you really want to make back your money, sell the AU and TAMU tickets. TAMU is in the highest demand.
