Pimp thread - YDC72

[PoppyGrove]

A warm welcome to everyone to our last YDC for 2009 - we are again supporting some great charities. As this willbe the last YDC this year lets all make it a specacular one for the close of the year and raise lots and lots of pennies (and pounds) if we can for their pot.
If you haven't started your christmas shopping, this may be a good time to start.

Good luck everyone in your bidding - and many thanks for listing.

(Washington DC time, as times vary between states please check the time difference and adjust accordingly)

Our winners from last month have nominated for this month ....

Huddylion has chosen Help For Heroes as the UK charity
and
Burgyeb has chosen 2 charities with the proceeds shared 50 / 50 between the 2 and they are The American Heart Association and the American Diabetes Association as November is Diabetes Awareness month.

So please lads & lasses, dig deep to find all those things to list. Remember the old saying - "One eBidder's rubbish is another eBidder's treasure"

7) Please read above for the listing times

10) As Items are donated, please keep p&p at cost

11) You may list AS MANY items as you wish

12) PLEASE CAN YOU LIST YOUR AUCTIONS IN THE IN THE CHARITY AUCTION SECTION, UNDER YDC,

NB - A query has been raised today re the starting price of items that include p&p. As this was raised too close to this months YDC to open a discussion on the pros & cons of having 2 start price guidelines - ie up to 99p if p&p is as an extra and a start price of no more than £x if price is included - then I've opted for a sellers discression for this month and to open a discussion some time in the new year after the christmas festivities.

Any questions please pm me

I am really hurt - barely submitted a bid and someone comes and snatches it away. Have pity on me - I am poorly. (and poor as well)
