A similar practice used among ticket re-sellers is to list an item as an online auction (such as eBay) - most commonly an innocuous item such as a collector's card - and give the tickets as a bonus to the winning bidder; thereby not actually selling tickets in order to circumvent ticket laws. This does not actually get around eBay's selling rules, as they effectively state that the goods that the buyer receives are what the seller is selling, including any free bonuses.
