CHARITY MMA Auctions

Hey guys, I'll be riding my bike in the MS-150, a 180 mile two-day bicycle ride from Houston to Austin, to raise money for Multiple Sclerosis research this weekend. About a month ago I wrote to dozens of fighters, MMA clothing companies, gyms, etc. asking for autographs and donated gear that I could auction off to help raise money and the response I got was fantastic! Bas Rutten, Matt Hughes, MFS, Jeff Monson, MMA artist and sherdogger Evan Shoman, Clay Guida and Premier Fighter all sent me some awesome stuff and I just listed the items on Ebay. 100% of the proceeds from these auctions will go to fight MS! Take a look and make a bid- you can get some great items for your collection and do a good deed at the same time. Thanks again to all those listed above for their outstanding generosity!

If my link doesn't work, you can simply "Search by Seller" on Ebay under "CrushCo".


Thanks for bidding!

*** ALL OF THE AUCTIONS NOW SHIP TO CANADA! Sorry for the oversight, guys.

*** UPDATE: JEFF MONSON sent in an autographed shirt which has been added to the auctions!


*** UPDATE: PRICE DROP. I've lowered the minimum/reserve price on a couple of the auctions to give the bidding a kick start. There are far worse things than giving $15 to charity- especially when you're getting something great back in return! Check it out and feel free to give me a bump. Being stickied has really paid off, but I've noticed a surge in views after each time this thread makes it to the main page.

THANKS!

PM a mod and get this sticky'd...definitely a worthy cause..and by checking out your link it definitely does look legit (which will be what most here question).

Good luck and I hope you raise a ton of money...I'll be bidding.

Thanks, Smitty. I included a lot of info on the ride to the donating parties so they'd know this isn't a scam. Here's a link to my team, The Carney Men, if anyone is interested.

and more info about the MS-150:

If any of you live in Austin (and are over 21), check out my other auctions- I put together a ton of gift certificates to Austin's best bars & restaurants. The packages are great- so check them out if you're in the area.

Thanks, Positivebalance! PureBreed- I could barely get the box through the door. Bas is even more genuine than he gets credit for. I can't say enough great things about all of the people that donated.

Best of luck in the MS 150. It's a great event and tons of money is raised each year.

Thanks to the mod(s) who stickied this thread. It's a noble cause and I wish you the best in your endeavor.
