YDC 82 Pimp Thread - Your Donation Counts!

[Armstrongs]

Well, here we are....yaaaaay!!

Today sees the start of YDC82 charity auctions.....
& i'll start the proceedings with a quick reminder of what we're all about.

24th – 28th October 2010

YDC charity auctions are held by the international eBid membership every month.
Our main aim is to raise as much money as we can, and have lots of fun along the way!
At the same time, we have a “friendly” competition to see which single auction raises the highest amount. The winning seller in this competition chooses which good cause to nominate for the following month’s competition.

As the winner of YDC81, Burgyeb has chosen:

The Ronald McDonald House Charities

as this month’s nominated charity.

Please come and join us with YDC82, everyone is welcome and -
YOUR DONATION COUNTS!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Please adhere to the following guidelines:

1) All auctions should have a start price of 99p (UK) or less.

2) No item listed should have an expected value of more than £20.00 (or local equivalent)
