Are you trying to sell a ticket on Ticketmaster but the site just isn't letting you? This can be frustrating, especially when you're trying to recoup some cash from a ticket you bought but can't use. In this article we'll go over all the reasons why Ticketmaster won't let you sell a ticket.

Why Ticketmaster Won't Let You Sell Tickets

The most common reason Ticketmaster won't let you sell a ticket is that the event you're selling a ticket for doesn't allow resale tickets. It could also be because you're trying to sell a third-party ticket, you didn't update your seller info, or you're trying to sell a non-Ticketmaster ticket.
