Kylie Minogue Wages War On Scalpers

Kylie Minogue has vowed to take on scalpers who are selling tickets to her upcoming Showgirl tour on eBay.

She has been in contact with Wembley Arena and has insisted they cancel tickets sold through the auction website and resell them.

Her show in London sold out in a matter of minutes, and at the moment is her only scheduled show outside of her Australian dates - which are replacements of cancelled shows from last year.

Reegan Stark from Frontier Touring, the company putting on the Kylie shows in Australia later this year told Undercover, "Frontier has an active policy against eBay scalpers and have been trying to track down scalpers and tell them they are in breach of the conditions of sale, but it's difficult to get on top of it."

"We can't take them to a court of law, but we can cancel their tickets because they are in breach of the terms of sale if they're selling them on and they're not an authorized seller."

"It's certainly something that people are trying to get more control over it, but until eBay takes an active stance there isn't much we can do," she said.

Tickets to Kylie's Wembley Arena concert in London are selling on eBay for up to 489 pounds ($AU1,237) for two.
