Glastonbury Chief Monitors E-Bay Scalpers

Glastonbury Festival organisers have warned people selling tickets on E-bay that they won't receive their tickets, after this year's event sold out in an astonishing 24 hours.

Festival chief Michael Eavis told the Standard that they've been emailing ticket scalpers and telling them the tickets are non-transferable, even though black market prices have already reached £400.

"I'm obviously pleased that people think we're valuable and want to come," said Eavis. "But to be honest, it's not worth £400, it's worth £105. In the past, people who have bought these tickets expect flush loos (toilets) everywhere. We don't want people expecting a five star campsite."

Moby and Radiohead headline this year's event, which takes place in June 27-29.
