People are gross. TMZ that eBay has removed memorabilia from Chester Bennington's funeral from the site after being contacted by the late Linkin Park singer's loved ones. The items for sale included a program, wristband, lanyard, and pin given out at the funeral service, and before they were taken down, the highest bid was $50,000. According to "sources close to Chester," the seller was probably someone who worked with Linkin Park in production and has sold other Linkin Park merch in the past. In a statement, an eBay spokesperson says that the company doesn't allow sales of items that "attempt to profit from tragedy."
