Promoters of Kylie Minogue's upcoming 'comeback' concerts are hoping to stop people from reselling tickets to the gigs at huge mark ups via eBay.
As previously reported, demand for Kylie's next London shows, her first in the UK since undergoing treatment for breast cancer, was huge, with tickets selling out in minutes. Such was the demand that some touts were auctioning off tickets via eBay at up to five times to face value price.
Promoters of the gig and, according to some reports, Kylie herself, were angered by the unofficial profiteering off her fans, and moves have been made to void any tickets sold in this way.
It is not the first time tickets have been sold for profit on eBay, of course, and some question what exactly promoters can do to stop the practice. However, ticket agency See Tickets says that it has identified several ticket holders reselling tickets online, and has said that it will void their tickets.
