American Cancer Society Auction - Wk 4 - Five MUST-SEE listings, check it out! 1 year 8 months ago #2

Another auction? Charity?
A few confluent forces have led me to start this auction. First and foremost, the auction is in honor of my dad, Kevin, who has been battling cancer since April 2017. He bought me my first baseball cards, taught me about his stamp and coin collections, drove me twelve miles to trade for my first Blastoise card, and basically wired me for this crazy token addiction. :laugh:

Others forum members have held charity auctions before, and this community has rallied to raise money for really great causes. I'm hoping I can funnel some assistance toward the American Cancer Society. The goal is to donate via this auction and help them provide aid/assistance to more cancer patients, and hopefully one day eliminate cancer altogether.

So for an un-decided number of weeks, I will post one some number of listings per week with 100% of funds going to the American Cancer Society. I will not collect any money - all funds will be donated directly, and I will cover the shipping. The items will go up Monday and the auctions will end on Sunday. Hopefully folks can win some tokens and give to a great cause at the same time.

In Druid speak, that's like Spell Surging your Call Lightning :cheer:

Also, one last note - if anyone wants to make a donation to the American Cancer Society just because, send me proof of your donation and I'll send something to a non-winning bidder.

That way you can Spell Surge Cure Moderate Wounds. :laugh:

If you'd rather donate a token, I'll be sure to list the contributed token(s) up for auction pronto so the American Cancer Society receives even more funds. Thank you so much for your support and for checking out the auction!

We've had some amazing community members donate tokens to auction, so we're expanding from the 1 listing per week setup.

Rules -
1. All bids must be submitted in flat dollar increments by PM.
2. The auction is Ebay-style. You can submit your max bid, and you only pay $1+ the next highest bid.
3. If you would like to use a pseudonym, please indicate what you would like to be called in your bid PM. I will update bid information with either your forum handle or your chosen pseudoynm. (Note - I reserve the right to veto your pseudoynm if it is inappropriate)
4. Bid amount will be updated daily.
5. If there is a tie, earliest tied high-bid wins.
6. Winner of the auction will submit his/her/their winning bid amount as a donation to the American Cancer Society . After providing proof of donation, I will ship the item to the winner at no additional cost.

Lots of bids have been submitted. 19 bids from 7 unique bidders across the 5 lots so far.

This is the last big week, so get those bids in! Let's raise some funds for the ACS.

Next week we'll close out this auction series with one big listing instead of multiple.

It's been very interesting running a weekly micro-auction. Seeing how bidding works from this perspective has been eye-opening and I do not envy the work that 8k auctioneers put in.

Cheers to the 8k auctioneers for making the perks of 8k's more accessible to us all, and cheers to everyone who's either bid or donated tokens to the charity auction. :)

We have a new bid leader on Lot 4!

It's exciting to see some movement today. If anyone's still thinking about bidding, you'll have until Sunday to try and win some of these great tokens.

It's been a slow day for the auction, but there are still deals to be had. I guess folks are saving their cash for Gen Con, but that's a perfect excuse for anyone not going to snag a deal :)
