    You agreed to pay for the tickets, so pay him. If it were to get to court then he would win and you would be obliged to pay his costs as well as the ticket price, so long as he can prove that he really did buy the tickets for you.

    And as posted above, if a court finds against you and you pay all that is required within 28 days, then that is the end of the matter. If you fail to pay then yes, it can lead to problems getting a mortgage or any other kind of credit.

    How do you know what a District Judge will decide.
    The first question would be why did you not get the money up front.
    The second where are the tickets, lets see them
    And the next why did you not post them if you think someone else owns them.

    They are not the best people to tie up in a petty squabble.

    You can check eBay listings yourself for unsold items. Just use the advanced search bar function:
    http://www.ebay.co.uk/sch/ebayadvsearch/?rt=nc

    So is he claiming that the other tickets remained unsold? As others have already stated, you need proof that he still has them then.
