New measures making it harder for travellers to take baby formula purchases out of Hong Kong have been driving up re-sale prices on mainland shopping websites.

On mainland e-commerce site Taobao, prices for the Mead Johnson and Friso brands of newborn formula rose as high as 300 yuan (HK$385) a can, according to a recent Ming Pao report.
