I won some concert tickets but as Xmas is coming up I wondered if it's okay to sell them? They have a face value of £0 on the tickets but are on sale for £50 each, I want to sell them for £25 each.

    They are your tickets. You can sell, IMO.

    Some tickets are not transferable and it says this in the small print. Depends if they have your name on them and if you have to take ID.

    There's no mention on the tickets. Should this be ok?

    I would think so, but am no expert. I am sure someone else with more experience will reply soon.

    I won tickets to see the Vamps that had no name or price on. I gave them to my friend to take her daughter no ID was needed. Are they proper tickets like you would receive in the post if buying from somewhere like ticketmaster as if so I think they would be ok, mine were proper tickets.
