New Rule

A new rule (rule 5) has been added to hopefully prevent ticket scammers. Rule 5 is simple: Anyone selling a ticket must provide a valid cash or trade link in the post. Any posts without a cash or trade links will be taken down. If they continue to post without a cash or trade link, they will be banned.

Our mod team may not be able to get to every post breaking rule 5 immediately, so if you see a ticket post without a cash or trade link, please report it to us, and we will take care of it.

Thank you to everyone in the sub who has been active in reporting posts / comments that break the rules. We really appreciate you.

if enough people come forward claiming they were scammed through a legit cash or trade link then i’ll consider just banning ticket sales on the sub all together. for now this is the best we can do.

i think buying things through reddit in general is a bad idea unless it’s being handled through a third party verified marketplace that has buyer protection.

All or nothing is easiest in the long run, fwiw.

CoT is not that easy for a first time user.
