Here Here.

Wholesale touting should be banned. I can see the temptation of gambling £1.50 with a text competition and if you are lucky to get tickets to sell them on but morally it is wrong.

How about naming and shaming sellers.

Ebay to continue to sell but seller to donate all money to fund. 

Can't see it happening but the thought is there!

Ebay have spent the night removing all the tickets from the site. Maybe there is some semblance of decency out there!

Yeah but it's a bit stomach churning to learn that at first they thought it was OK, then the were going to donate the proceeds to the appeal and then when the heat really got turned up, the decided to act. I'm sorry for sounding cynical, but if they could have got away with it, they would. After all, isn't this why we have a campaign in the first place, because big business and governments have no sense of moral duty and have to be pushed into action.

Erm. NO. eBay is great. I got a bargain train set for £4.
