Ticket Sales

eBay Inc. globally supports the right of fans who purchase tickets to entertainment and sporting events to resell or give those tickets away without limitations or restrictions.

If done properly, the elimination of this barrier to e-commerce can result in increased competition, increased ticket availability, and better service to the event-going public.

Restrictions on the resale of ticket such as mandated price caps, price floors, authorized resale, and statutes outlawing the resale of an event ticket eliminate a consumer’s right to distribute a commodity they have purchased at a requested price.

Technologies used for ticket distribution should empower fans and protect the fan’s right to resell a ticket on any online exchange or platform.
