Does anyone know what happened to this site? I used it to get nice Level 2 seats and found it really good. Is there a new site where ST holders sell their tickets if they can't make it?

There was a notice on the OS a while back saying it had been stopped.

Probably being abused somehow or the club changed how tickets worked so it was no longer feasible to do tickets through that website.

i'm not sure what happened to it, but I only tried it once trying to sell my Arsenal ticket on it last season to no avail. Now whether it was sold, i would never know as I couldn't attend and they obviously knew that as I was selling it on there.
It would be good if the club did something like this though, because it is inevitable that people will miss games that have season tickets due to circumstances. If you could get 75% of the value back of a seat it would be a good thing. I've only missed the one game at Fulham, but my brother had my ticket. Would have liked the option to get £20 for it though, as if he can't go which is often. Then i'm stuffed and it's an empty seat.
Hopefully the club will look at introducing something like seat exchange themselves.

when they dropped it the OS said "for reasons beyond our control".
If you visit their website now they still do football tickets but only for 1 club. Can't be in breach of football regs, so maybe they just couldnt agree on a fair share
Never criticise a man until you've walked a mile in his shoes.
That way when you do criticise him you'll be a mile away.
And you'll have his shoes.

Just actually selling empty seats to people who want to buy them seems to be taxing their abilities to the limit at the moment.

Because it starts to become Sticky central and normal threads start off halfway down the page.
A normal thread will suffice, if people want them they will find it.

People may have been buying season tickets and then selling them on seat exchange every single week to make profit although small each week it would have been taking a season ticket away from a real fan. Could be why it stopped. I always thought it was a bad idea for this reason. As a season ticket saves you quite a bit over time but when you sell on that website you get full whack almost.
