Gold 90.5 FM Christmas Charity Auction

BeadHub's Tanja Sadow has collaborated with some Gold 90.5FM DJ's on eight exclusive jewellery pieces. They're up for auction on eBay and the bidding ends on Saturday morning (16th December).

100% of proceeds go to the Cheshire Home.

I've placed a bid on one of the items; can you guess which it is? :))

Update & Warning:
Being a very experienced eBay-er of several years, I must write to express some reservations I have about some of the bidders, especially after examining the bid histories of all the items. I *feel* that one or more of them are there just to artificially push the bid prices up (I forget what the term is).

OH WELL. I WILL continue to bid -- after all, this is for a good cause. But I can't get the nasty taste out of my mouth ... which is a pity.

I can see that too. Cos all the bidders have no zero ratings. Pretty obvious;) Seems like you are the only one with ratings:) Good luck!! Hope it goes to you!!

Hey sweetie! Maybe, maybe not. I can be a grumpy fart sometimes and jump to all sorts of erroneous conclusions.

Maybe the bidders are new and registered to help to their part for charity and are not used to the ways of eBay yet.

It's just annoying to see that when people try to outbid one another, they do it in such tiny increments, inflating the bid history number.

Hopefully:) But I do see some of them bidding on every item multiple times without any competition. So, not surprising that people will think that way:)

Hehe, the real bidding war will start within 30 mins of closing:)
