"Raul bought him them." NO! It's confusing. It could be interpreted as if Raúl had bought something called 'them' for him or as if Raul bought another guy (him).
[Raul compro las entradas para Ruben] (By the way, "Raúl", "Rubén", and "compró" all have written acentos.)
Correct form: Raúl bought them for him.

Technically in English that is incorrect. There is not i.o. in your sentence. Him is the object of the preposition for. http://www.slu.edu/colleges/AS/languages/classical/latin/tchmat/grammar/g-indob.html - 0074b507, Mar 30, 2011
or read this discussion where several sources were quoted saying i.o.'s cannot follow a preposition : http://www.spanishdict.com/answers/144168/indirect-object-pronouns-wprepositional-phrase-or-wclarifying-phrase - 0074b507, Mar 30, 2011
