eBay sued promoter over anti scalper clause Online auction website eBay has won an Australian Federal Court challenge against the latest moves by promoters of the Big Day Out to prevent ticket scalping. "The scalpers have won today,” Ken West said. The online auction site sued the promoter after changes were made to the conditions of tickets sold for concerts, arguing that the changes amounted to deception. “The ticket scalper is being protected within the system while the consumer can be forced to pay two, three times the face value,” West said outside the court.
