ebay remove it!

There's still plenty of listings. Looks like most of them propose to sell it to you through the official fifa trading site in Feb if you win the auction. One already say they have the tickets from an earlier sale stage and will transfer them to your name immediately. Who knows for sure..

This is interesting: ebay actually has a faq about selling world cup tickets

I'm looking for an english version. If I can't find it I'll try to translate when I get time.

ppl do not buy these tickets. Infact I believe these post should be removed from this site.It is an illegal transaction and should not be condoned here. Infact I believe some of the ones posting it here are the ones selling. I may be wrong if I am sorry. while on the phone with FIFA yesterday they told me it is illegal when I asked if they knew about the tickets on ebay

themanfriday, u can let people go ahead and take that risk to purchase those tkts you know. Because there are going to be very stringent measures for you to get into the stadium. If i'm not mistaken, your name and passport number are assigned to each individual ticket, in an effort to dissuade scalpers and known hooligans

[whayuhsay]

If FIFA really going to be able to enforce that rule? 

What if man get sick and cyar make the game and give their ticket to a friend, how the hell can FIFA refuse admission based on ID on ticket?

This will cause mucho problemas at the stadium gates....

then that sick man's friend wont get in. if you cant go you can trade your ticket in, but if your information isnt on the ticket then you cant use it. that is of course if they really do check everyone.

[citizenK]

I doubt there will be any checking of names, passports, etc at the stadiums. It's just not practical. The Fifa site says something like they are "entitled" to check, not that they will.

Plus, despite all these measures by Fifa, I suspect there will still be lots of scalping/touting of tickets in Germany. If Fifa then decides to enforce this "rule" to the last man they may well end up with half empty stadiums.

[trini in korea]

 I remember they said the same thing in 2002 at the korea/japan world cup and i went to 8 games and they never once asked for id.
They just say that to prevent scalping but scalping was rampant right in front of te security guards
