The One Time San Diego Comic-Con Recommends You DO Buy Tickets On eBay

Reselling San Diego Comic-Con tickets on eBay is a big no-no. Tickets get voided, people even get prosecuted, everyone knows it's a bad idea.
Until today. When, in the wake of nearly 3 million residents of Puerto Rico still without electricity and 1 million children in Texas are unable to start school as they struggle to rebuild damaged education and daycare facilities, Comic-Con International asked themselves what they could do to help.

Starting today and then again on Saturday, you can visit eBay and bid on one of ten pairs of Comic-Con 2018 badges. All badges are good for all 4 days of Comic-Con 2018 plus Preview Night. And 100% percent of auction proceeds will be donated to UNICEF USA, a non-profit organization leading disaster response, delivering supplies, and creating child-friendly spaces for those communities impacted by the storms. UNICEF USA helps save and protect the world's most vulnerable children.

Auctions for the first four pairs of badges will open on Thursday, October 26 at 3pm PDT, 6pm EDT, 11pm BST. These are short, 24-hour auctions, that will end on Friday, October 27. Eight lucky, and generous, fans will sleep soundly on Friday night knowing that they won't need to wake up early for Returning Registration….

And for those not eligible to participate in Returning Registration, they can make bids from Saturday, October 28 at 9am PDT, noon EDT, 5pm BST to bid on six more pairs of 4-Day badges with Preview Night. This time,  these badge auctions will be up for 72 hours.

All badges will be auctioned off on the official Comic-Con eBay account: sdcomic-con. You are reminded not to purchase badges from any other seller.  Sdcomic-con is the only authorized seller of Comic-Con badges, and all other auctions are not associated with our event.

Winners will have 10 days from the end of the auction to submit their Comic-Con Member ID information to Comic-Con for each registrant.  A Member ID is not required to bid on the auction, but all winners must sign up for a free Member ID in order to complete their registration.
