Why are people allowed to get autographs or concert tickets & sell them on Ebay at high prices? Singers are clearly displaying their anger at this happening and the real fans getting ripped off.
What does Ebay propose to do to stop this happening?

They have a policy regarding signatures and likenesses

If it contravenes this policy, then report it
They are a US seller

There are also rules on selling of concert tickets -

Concert tickets are not supposed to be resold for more than retail price.

To be fair, the seller you've given us is not just selling autographs.
They're selling the record with the cover signed by the artist. People
will pay what they think that record is worth with the signature.
No policy will cover stupidity
They are not selling concert tickets

Stawks not sure if that is to me or the OP, but I know.
I was giving the other half of the answer to the OP's querie.
"Why are people allowed to get autographs or concert tickets & sell them on Ebay at high prices?"
OP, that seller can list that record album at any price they like but doesn't mean it will sell.

I hate seeing books for sale as ..autographed.
EG-some of Peter Brocks books have a signature on the title page.
that is part of the printing and in every copy.

I have books signed with a biro, and I advertise them as signed. I don't see a problem with that, nor do my buyers.
