This was a genuine unwanted prize as I dont live in London
Errr why log into SFF with the code and select London then... It's so much better when they don't even say where they got it from but to show the SFF print out and then say it was a prize???? I guess it must have been a prize in the terms that she had to beat others to get there first before it packs out... And then selling it on????? The f-ing cheek of it all. :mad: People have no shame. :mad:

I would have thought ebay stopped them as they have done in the past when people sold charity tickets won on the net

Mate, this sucks big time. I have NEVER been able to get a sff ticket because they always go too quick. Luckily, i've just got my first one :) but it's because of these people that we don't get them :(

I agree Phunkygal, what the hell is that person up to? The sad thing is I suspect he/she is one of those people who are on FMUK or MSE and hoard all the tickets as soon as he/she gets an alert....sad.....really sad

Absolutely disgraceful.

And here we have the reason why I am only getting tickets for regular posters.

If it is one of our members they ought to feel ashamed of themselves, but they'll not be reading this thread, will they?

Well thats even more disappointing and could potentially put FMUK in trouble or at least in a bad light with SFF, gumtree etc. Sorry, but what an idiot...
