    Yes these bands are meant to be sold for charity but at the end of the day if people want to them and are willing to pay stupid prices for them then surely that is up to them. Ebay sellers are not doing anything wrong. Charities will only ever get payment once for one item.
    hmm.. well why don't people sell them on ebay and donate the profits to the charities?? it's disgusting that people can make profits at their expense.

    I'd have to agree, you can't say ebay sellers aren't doing anything wrong, because they are. They are buying up all the bands and selling them for crazy money. The idea of the bands was to get to a bigger audience as possible.

    the eBay sellers at the end of the day still buy them and the charity still get the £1.50 they wanted, but it just means less people actually get them because some people take them all and the idea of reaching as big an audience as possible falls short (not everyone is willing to pay stupid amounts of money for them).

    The charitie doesnt get the whole 1.50, the actual money from this wristband is probably only about 80p that is given, after production costs and retailer markup(fixed). Dont be so naive to assume that nike and the retailers are selling this item for no profit.
