eBay bans Diana concert touts
Auction website eBay has banned the re-sale of tickets for the planned concert for Princess Diana "out of respect".
The concert sold out in minutes as buyers flocked to the website to bid for a chance to attend the star-studded event which will take place at the new Wembely stadium in London next July.
Tickets for the event were spotted being offered on the website priced at up to £300 per pair with one set drawing 19 bids in just over an hour.
But eBay said it was pulling the listings and contacting vendors to explain that they could not re-sell their tickets on the site.
Diana's sons, the Princes Harry and William have organised the large scale event to mark the 10th anniversary of Princess Diana's death.
Famous stars such as Elton John, who sang a tribute at Diana's funeral, Duran Duran and US artist Pharrell Williams are among many expected to perform on the day.
