EBay removes Holocaust memorabilia listings

EBay removes Holocaust memorabilia listings

EBay has apologised and removed from sale about 30 items of memorabilia from the Nazi Holocaust, following an investigation by a UK newspaper.
Among them was a uniform said to belong to a Polish baker who died at Auschwitz for $18,000 (£11,200), it said.
The online auction site apologised and said it had made a donation of $40,000 (£25,000) to charity.
The Mail on Sunday said other items listed included shoes and a toothbrush said to have belonged to concentration camp victims and Star of David armbands used to mark out Jews for persecution.
