Its a difficult one, you could report it to SFF or Momentum, but then they can't really track down who it is unless they start ID'ing people.

I can't believe people do such things with free tickets :x
preferred locations Shepherds Bush, Westfield, Notting Hill, Central London, Wimbledon, Islington, Wandsworth thanks

I've reported it to eBay so we'll see if they do anything about it.

You can do it by clicking on the Report Item link just above the description on the listing on the right hand side. Then choose the following from the drop down menus:-

> Prohibited (banned) items
> Event tickets
> Breach of other event tickets

and in the brief description box just put something like:- seller is selling FREE tickets against the rules/T&Cs of the original booking site

Update:Just got a message from ebay saying they usually investigate reports within 24/48 hours so it looks like it'll end before they get round to doing anything

I can't believe he wants to charge for delivery as well seeing as he could just email it for free!
