ello,
Thank you for writing eBay Australia with regard to some questionable
event ticket listings you've noticed on the site lately. My name is
Del, and I'm happy to speak with you today.
I definitely understand how seeing such activity on eBay can be
disconcerting. However, due to the nature of our marketplace and the
standards on which it was built, we generally trust our sellers to
accurately quote the face value of their tickets when they are listed.
This is mostly due to the fact that we are not experts in the field of
event ticket prices. As a result, we're reluctant to remove listings
for event tickets that are in compliance with our Event Tickets policy.
In any case, if you come across an auction that you believe is in
violation of resale laws or the event organisers' Terms of Sale, please
don't hesitate to immediately contact your local authorities with the
details of the auction and the item number. We have a longstanding
policy of providing full cooperation with law enforcement agencies, and
will gladly assist them in any investigation of unlawful conduct within
this venue.
You can find more information on our Event Tickets policies by visiting
this page:

Your concern is very much appreciated, and your dedication to the safety
of our members is commended. Thanks again very much for your time, and
I wish you the best of luck with your future eBay transactions!
Regards,
Del
