EBay has apologised and removed from sale about 30 items of memorabilia from the Nazi Holocaust, following an investigation by a UK newspaper.
The Mail on Sunday said it had found "dozens" of items related to the Holocaust on the site last week. 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.
'Not allowed' It said it had alerted eBay and the online auctioneer had removed 30 items from sale.
