Gloves | 11,759 Administrator · Posted December 1, 2022 Share Posted December 1, 2022 Welcome Sages to the 2022 Extra Life Charity Auction! Like last year, a few fine folks have donated some great stuff to help raise funds for the kids! If you don't know what I'm talking about when I say Extra Life, check out the main thread below, while this thread right here will serve as a main thread to link to all of the individual and lot auctions to help organize and ensure you don't miss anything. Donors: None of this would be possible without the support of these fine folks, who've offered up their stuff for auction, HUGE thanks to them! If you'd like to donate something either to auction off, or otherwise to be sold to raise funds for the charity, PM me! @spacepup @Jeevan @Splain @Reed Rothchild @Deadeye Jonas Rosland (Hit Save!) Some notes: All auctions have both a pre-bid AND a LIVE auction aspect to them (Live portion starts at 3pm EST on Dec 3rd) From today until the Live Auction starts, you may bid via Private Message to me, Gloves Once the Live Auction starts, the threads will be locked and the Live section will take place on Discord When PMing me, provide the highest you're willing to go in bidding, and that bid will be used as your bidding for the Live section e.g. if you bid $100 on a minimum bid $50 item, and Live bidding goes up to $80, you will win that item! All winners are asked to make a donation directly to Extra Life with their winning bid and a note on what they won (Extra Life Donation page: Douglas Glover - Fundraising For Extra Life (extra-life.org)) Covering the fees on Extra Life isn't required, but it's nice if you can Extra Life will send a donation receipt for taxes to your email later on Shipping will be covered for all items (if not by the donor, by me personally) Winners will be contacted on Sunday December 4th, after I've had a chance to sleep after the Extra Life Game Day Rules are subject to change with notice in the thread; I'm human and just doing my best to raise money for the kids, so bear with me if something's not clear, and feel free to ask any questions you might have!

Gloves | 11,759 Administrator · Posted December 1, 2022 Author Share Posted December 1, 2022 FYI I've updated all threads to reflect the following correction: From today until the Live Auction starts, you may bid via Private Message to me, Gloves Once the Live Auction starts, the threads will be locked and the Live section will take place on Discord When PMing me, provide the highest you're willing to go in bidding, and that bid will be used as your bidding for the Live section e.g. if you bid $100 on a minimum bid $50 item, and Live bidding goes up to $80, you will win that item! TL;DR: Bids are to be made privately to me via PM! If you want to bump the thread that'd help, feel free to do so; just remember to bid in private lest you be outbid!

Gloves | 11,759 Administrator · Posted December 2, 2022 Author Share Posted December 2, 2022 Bump! Reminder that every penny goes directly to charity and is tax deductible (to the extent allowed by law, and based on your region)! With all of the auction lots listed at a starting price around half of "fair market value" (based on inspecting recent sales), even a minimum bid would mean funds raised for Sick Kids and some practically free stuff for the winner(s)! Any questions at all just lemme know! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spacepup | 2,404 Administrator · Posted December 3, 2022 Share Posted December 3, 2022 Just a reminder everyone - we'll be starting the auction in Discord at 3pm EST, which is just about 15 minutes away! If you can't join the Live Auction and want to place a bid, please PM Gloves as possible, but no later than 3pm. There is a channel in discord called #extra-life-charity-auction where we'll conduct everything. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
