I'm not saying it's right, but if you have 18,000+ points and know for a fact you can sell the tickets on with ease online, you can't blame them really. If some foreign lads wanted to pay me hundreds of pounds for a match ticket, then I'd be happy to oblige.
However, I don't think as much of this is going on as is made out. I think bad eggs in the ticket office or the club itself are dispatching stuff to mates or online at highly inflated rates.
If you've bought 6 tickets and the club has allowed you then they've implicitly authorised you. So you're not breaing the law or the ticket conditions. We're not talking about that. And I'll repeat that if the club has given out these tickets from its own allocation of 150 or whatever then that's no skin of your or anyone else's nose.

Did you not ask them how they bought tickets as they were next to you?Away days aren't what they used to be. First time I've been away this season so maybe it was a one off given the prestige of the fixture. In front of my seat were a middle eastern couple, the burka clad lady spent a fair proportion of the match sat down looking at her phone. Next to them was a south east asian bloke in a £1000 suit who seemed equally excited when utd attacked as when we did. Next to me was a French lad who told me he'd never been to a City game before but fair play to him he joined in as best he could. How do they get tickets.
French lad did thru work. Oriental bloke didn’t speak much English and didn’t speak to the couple.Did you not ask them how they bought tickets as they were next to you?
