Auction is CLOSED Thanx EVERYONE! When you pay remember to "GIFT" the money - You've been

Stone193 · December 5, 2013 11:51AM

Hi everyone

edit: This auction will run till next Saturday 9pm Central.

edit: I would like to give a Special Thanx to Memory Lane Auctions and PSA's Joe Orlando for their generous donation to our auction! But, and more importantly, I would like to thank EVERYONE here who's donated items and have generously bid to make this auction - already - a Big Success.

I moved the OP below - so everyone can see the lots. There's plenty to bid on - and some really nice graded cards! We're supporting a friend here who is battling "round two" with cancer.

Many remember Jay as qualitycards and a really good guy. Without getting into his business, his illness has practically bankrupted them - and any help we can give - especially in the Christmas season of giving is appreciated!

You - at CU - are a special bunch of hobby geeks who not only have a passion for collecting but a heart with generosity to match! Thanx!!!!

Mike, very nice thing you are doing. I already helped out and hopefully the extra funds come in handy as fighting cancer is very costly as many guys on here can attest too.

Unfortunately I can attest to that times two!

1980scollector · December 5, 2013 12:44PM

Stone, do you mind if I add an item?

They can pay you and you can forward the money to the board member.

Of course, I'll ship to the winner.

Wondo · December 5, 2013 12:52PM

$100

Stone193 · December 5, 2013 12:52PM

EDIT: THIS WAS THE OP - I moved it since I wanted the top post to have just the auction lots with updates.

Hi everyone

A fellow CU member had been battling cancer for a long time and it's taken its toll on him in all the ways one can imagine.

I would like to raise some money for him. So, I'm auctioning off this cello pack.

edit: it started with this pack and grew from there - many members have generously offered items for auction - so carefully scroll down - hopefully you'll find something you like!

The auction closes next Saturday 9PM Eastern - who knows? There could be a PSA 10 Molly hiding in there!

You can bid openly or PM me.

Thanks - I'd like to make this a merrier Christmas.

I'm placing this "copy" of a post I made recently - I understand that some are seeing posts that are not sequential - that stinks!

[My POST: Just off the phone with our CU member.

Here's his icon which many will recognize:

His name is Jay Wolt from PA.

I would like to start with the fact that Jay is a very kind and generous supporter of others here and on other boards.

Many times he would send a "care package" filled with all kinds of ephemera when he read where someone was "down" for any reason. If you ever wanted to visit his side of the pond? He would have you over for a BBQ and a tour of the area to include historic Gettysburg.

I know Jay never thought he would be in this situation but this is his 2nd go around with a bought with cancer and will be in the hospital for the next month or so - bone marrow transplant.

I don't have to tell you what the cost is for this - but the out of pocket is devastating! And this is the 2nd time!

<< Jay wanted to express his sincerest thanks for the outpour of generosity and support and is humbled by all the well wishers who've extended themselves to help in this dire time of need. "You are the best!" >>

End POST]
