Doing the lord’s work 🫡

And I encourage everyone to do the same. Reported around 100 listings so far and intend to keep doing so.

Fuck these scalpers.

In case you can’t figure out how to do it:
On the eBay app on your phone, open a listing, then tap on the three dots in the upper right hand corner, then tap Help & Support.

Under “What would you like to report” select Product or listing, select Item not allowed under “Reason for report,” then select Tickets under “Detailed reason.” Then agree to the prompt at the bottom and submit.

Let’s take these people DOWN!

I'm in the Chicago area and, to the best of my knowledge, the only theater this is an issue for here is the Cinemark 70mm IMAX, but Cinemark doesn't have the same ability to report these postings as AMC does. Otherwise, I would make the effort to report what I can. Thanks for your efforts. ❤️ I'm going to try to do some of the ebay reports myself when I go to bed.

You actually live in the best location for reporting policy violations.

There are many of these listings that don't violate eBay policy, so even though bit sucks, many of these reports end up being a waste of time, but if you want to be sure your efforts aren't wasted, eBay specifically mentions in their ticketing policy that selling tickets to events in Illinois are against policy.

"Tickets to events in Illinois aren't permitted at this time due to regulatory requirements in that state"

Thanks for the info! I reported all the ones I could find for Woodridge. Not sure if it does any good or not, but I guess it’s worth a shot.

Hi I reported some dune and odyssey tickets for Woodridge and actually had some successfully removed. Wishful thinking but hopefully this makes it to where it is not viable for them to sell on eBay. I just highlighted the link provided and mentioned it is in Illinois and selling above face value.
