eBay

I have some livenation digital cash codes to use and have a discount on ticketmaster and i wonder if it's against eBay rules to list them? It's basically like a digital gift card/code. I did read the policies about it but it's not all clear to me

1. Is it against rules to list and sell them on eBay

2. If it's against rules, what's the worse if you get caught selling. Listing removal, suspension?

I personally won't use them and they expires in one month, at this point eBay is my last chance to sell them. But if i risk a lifetime ban, i guess it's not worth trying. Anyone with experience about that?

Here is the eBay policy on digitally delivered items/Gift Cards . You would have to review and judge from there if they are acceptable.

There's a number of websites that deal with gift cards if eBay is unclear. I've never used any of them, but you could try something like cardswap.ca (for example).

1 - It's against eBay rules

2- The worst is that you will usually get ripped off (no proof of delivery)

3 - Probably a violation of LiveNation/Ticketmaster rules

...some things are just not worth trying or running after for a few $$$.

Well it's $500.00 of codes

I remember seeing someone succeed to sell some when i received them a few months ago so it's possible to do it. The only risk i don't wanna take is a lifetime ban and on all my accounts. This is the only thing making me nervous to list them. If the only sanction is to have my listings removed. Between a warning on my second account and throwing $500.00 the choice is easy
