Didn't quite think this belonged in sports section
So guys, me and my lady have tickets for men's finals day. Reading in the paper today that tickets are going for stonking money , especially if Murray can manage the final.
Now, I want to see the final but I'm also a sell out and I do have my price. My girlfriend is under the impression it is illegal for us to sell the tickets even though our names are not on them. Thats not right is it?
Has anyone sold tickets before. Where would people recommend. Online auction site? A certain national selling forum?

Cheers
 
doesn't mean the OP can get the same or is necessarily allowed to sell his

the ones in the link are debenture tickets, if the OP has some of these then happy days...
 
If you have debenture tickets these can be transferred to other people, if you got your tickets via the lottery they will get cancelled if you transfer them.
 
So have been reading round and looks like you are only legally allowed to sell/transfer the tickets if they are 'debenture'

Debenture (those allocated to each Centre Court Debenture Holder for every day of The Championships and each No.1 Court Debenture Holder for the first 10 days of The Championships)

You would have to be a Wimbledon Debenture holder to have Debenture tickets unless you bought yours from a Debenture holder.

Otherwise:

Essential information

Anti-tout measures

  • Under these conditions all Wimbledon tickets, apart from Debentures which are clearly marked, will only be valid if sold either by The All England Lawn Tennis Club or by one of its licensed and authorised agents. Unauthorised sale or transfer of tickets immediately invalidates them.

  • The AELTC takes active steps to monitor and control sales including those made via shops and internet sites (such as eBay).

  • Where the details of tickets being advertised for sale are known, the tickets are cancelled meaning that the purchasers will not gain entry to The Championships.

Conditions of sale

1. Tickets shall not be resold or transferred (save as mentioned in (2) below) and shall not be purchased or obtained from or through any person, commercial agent, company or otherwise than directly by the applicant from The All England Lawn Tennis Club (Championships) Limited ("AELTC") or its authorised agent. Any tickets advertised for sale will be void.

2. If more than one ticket is issued to an applicant those tickets may be used only by the applicant and the person intending to accompany that applicant to and at The Championships. The provision of such ticket by an applicant to such person without payment shall not contravene the above.

3. Tickets are issued subject to Conditions of Entry established by the AELTC from time to time and the AELTC shall be entitled to refuse admission to any ticket holder in reasonable circumstances and shall give written reasons if requested. See Conditions of Entry below.

4. Any ticket obtained in breach of these Conditions shall be void and all rights conferred or evidenced by such ticket shall be nullified. Any person seeking to use a ticket obtained in breach of these Conditions in order to gain or provide entry to or remain at The Championships will be a trespasser and will be ejected and liable to legal action.

5. Tickets remain the property of the AELTC at all times.

Paying £10000 to see two people grunt for 1 hour to 10 hours.

They should make it more entertaining, put a live grenade in, then shield the audience with a blast proof plastic, the first one to blow to pieces losses.

Its much shorter and much more interesting.
