    Given its actually illegal to re-sell football tickets in the UK I don't think they have much chance of winning that one
    From http://www.gosportstickets.com/terms-and-conditions:

    "15. Governing Law.
    USER agrees that any controversy or claim arising out of or relating to the use of SITE will be governed by the laws of Spain, without regard to its conflict of law provisions.
    "

    Presumably it's not illegal to re-sell football tickets in Spain.

    irrelevant, they are selling in the UK so UK laws apply 90% of those terms and conditions wouldn't stand up, You cant just make up terms and conditions to circumvent the law

    In the street only, not online - as a google search reveals.

    They are selling tickets for a UK event to a UK person, but that's an aside anyway, its legal to sell drugs in Amsterdam doesn't mean you can sell them and post them to the UK.


    If you don't get an item you do a chargeback, no terms and conditions will override that
