You would only see it if you sold all of them for more than $100.

This is a totally idiosyncratic definition of "worth". If I say a company is worth $100 a share, that doesn't imply that you could simultaneously sell every single share for at least $100
You inserted 'simultaneously', not me.

But if you are not able to eventually sell all the tickets for more than $100, clearly not all of them are worth more than $100. Some, at the right time and place, might be, but not all.
