Some wimbledon tickets cost £80,000 but get you a prime seat for every day for 5 years, and are tradeable like financial securities. On the other hand, you could pay only £37 and get a great single day seat, like I did, if you are willing to wait in line on the day of play. (A VERY long time!)

Most Wimbledon tickets are not resellable, but a handful are: that's why will be listed at thousands of dollars on sites like Stub Hub - BUT you don't have to break the bank to attend Wimbledon. You CAN get in to see top players for around £30-£40.
