The sellers will be charged by eBay for the final listing fee so eBay get a massive cut which keeps them happy and you stop other people getting ripped off. You should be able to argue that you aren't paying for the item because it is not allowed to be resold - I'd like to see the sellers try to kick up a stink over non-payment for an item they are not allowed to be selling in the first place.

Of course the sellers aren't going to make a big stink about this. They are making a profit off of something they got for free. But it's ridiculous because there are die-hard Jovi fans out there that actually would love to go, but can't because these brokers have already swept up the tickets. Now, these die-hards can simply pay for these "free" tickets, but is that fair? Absolutely not. It really irritates me a lot.
* Another thing. The day before the concert when the demand is at its highest, people will pay massive amounts of money for Bon Jovi Central Park tickets. That's why these brokers will make out like bandits.
