Question: I've never sold anything on Ebay, so I don't want to go into this completely naive. Are there legalities, rules or just things in general that I should know or watch for? Thanks!

these are the riles for selling ticket:

Event Ticket Resale Policy

eBay permits resale of tickets to entertainment events (including sporting events, concerts, and plays) to the fullest extent permitted by law. Ticket sellers are responsible for ensuring that transactions do not violate any applicable law. For information on specific state guidelines, please see "Additional Information" below.

Primary Ticket Sale Policy

Primary ticket sales may be listed on eBay and are exempt from state ticket resale regulations. To qualify as a 'primary sale' of an event ticket, the ticket must be sold on eBay by the artist, team, promoter or organizer of the event, and the seller must clearly and explicitly state in the listing that the listing is an authorized first sale of the ticket directly from the promoter, artist, organizer or team to the public. For help with primary ticket sales please contact eBay.

Ticket Package Policy

Ticket packages may be listed on eBay, and are exempt from state ticket resale regulations. To qualify as a 'ticket package', the listing must not offer the buyer an option to purchase the tickets alone, and must include either:

At least one item or experience of substantial value related to the ticket event that the seller has coordinated with the event promoter, team, manager, artist, or venue, such as a backstage pass, a meeting with the performer, or an "experience" such as being a ball boy at a baseball game; or

A complete travel package around the event, including both air transportation to the event location and commercial lodging for at least one night. Listings that offer tickets without these travel arrangements do not qualify as travel packages under this policy.

International Seller Policy

If you are listing event tickets for resale from an eBay site other than www.ebay.com for one of the regulated locations listed below, you are also responsible for following all applicable US state ticket resale laws.

Violations of this policy may result in a range of actions, including:
Listing cancellation
Limits on account privileges
Account suspension

One big thing: on eBay, you cannot charge more than the retail price for any tickets. If everyone at Ticketmaster paid $100 for this ticket, then you can't sell it for more than that. They don't allow scalping. They'll remove your items from the listings.

Get set up with Paypal, because it's a much safer, more secure way for people to pay and for you to receive payment. If a seller on eBay doesn't accept Paypal, even if they're selling a $2300 tennis bracelet for $1, I wouldn't bid on it. Sending cashier's checks or money orders is too hard to track, and too many "sellers" take that money and run, and there's not really anything that can be done about it.

Sell high! Lots of people do.

My advice, if you are going to be a scumbag scalper, is to go shoot yourself in the head.
