YDC 85 Pimp Thread 24th February - 28th February - MENCAP

[Armstrongs]

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

Today sees the start of the YDC 85 charity auctions.....
& i'll start the proceedings with a quick reminder of what we're all about.

24th – 28th February 2011

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 YDC84, hypnOtOad has chosen:

Mencap

as this month’s nominated charity.

Please come and join us with YDC85, everyone is welcome and -
YOUR DONATION COUNTS!

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

If you would like to take part in the “competition” element of YDC85,
Please adhere to the following guidelines:

1) All auctions should have a start price of 99p (UK) or less.
For other currencies, please find an easy conversion chart here: http://www.xe.com/

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

3) Your auction should not have a reserve price or Buy Now, and it should be a standard auction (ie: not “featured”, or have any extra enhancements)

4) Your auction should run for exactly 4 days.

5) Please list your item/s to start at any time on the 24th of February (in your country), and finish at the same time on the 28th. (Different time zones will be taken into account when establishing the “winner”).
