"Tu as les billets ? Oui, je les ai tous."

Why is this phrase not ""Tu as les billets ? Oui, je les en ai tous."

Bonjour Stephen,

Mohinder is correct: the question isn't asking about a specific quantity. "En" cannot be in the sentence along with tous as when "en" is used that way, it is associated with a specific number.

J'en ai quatre. = I have four of them.

J'en ai dix. = I have ten of them.

Je les ai tous. = I have all of them.

See link here: En with quantities = Of them (French Adverbial Pronouns)

I hope this is helpful.

Bonne journée !
