If I'd seen that I would have helpfully cancelled it for him. He's not just greedy but also really stupid!

His ticket has now been cancelled (presumably by SFF) so he can't sell it and can't even use it himself!

Preference of cinemas:- 1. Glasgow Renfield Street Cineworld, 2. Glasgow Showcase, 3. Braehead Odeon, 4. Vue Fort, 5 Glasgow Springfield Quay, 5. any other cinema in Glasgow area including Hamilton
Also Falkirk, Dunfermline and Stirling but these are rarely used for free previews.
