Tickets for Bruce Springsteen's Belfast show went on sale on eBay less than half an hour after it sold out this morning (September 7).

It took just eight minutes for 10,000 tickets, costing £49 and £60, to be snapped up.

One eBay vendor was asking £999 for four seated tickets, and many of the sellers specialise in sold-out events.

The gig takes place on December 15 at the Odyssey Arena as one of 31 dates on a tour which takes in Europe and North America.

Springsteen fan David Spence said: "This is the first time I've had any problem getting a ticket. Hopefully I'll be able to get tickets as I know some people who might be able to get corporate seats."

A spokeswoman for Odyssey Arena told BBC News: "Many people opt to buy online and like phone lines, the web can only cater for a limited number of users at one time.

"The high demand for tickets this morning meant that from 9am when the event went on sale, as well as queues at the Arena box office, Ticketmaster outlets, on phone lines, there were several thousand internet users in a queue online."
