Guys, I have gotten a good deal of posts and PM's from people who have personal connections to those with MS. I realize that not everyone has the money to bid on one of these auctions, so below is a link that you can use to directly donate to the MS-150. You don't get any collectibles this way, just the feeling of doing something to help out those less fortunate than yourselves. Donations of any size, even $5, are greatly appreciated and add up quickly.

For those interested in the progress of MS research, my team captain is VERY involved with this event and recently attended a conference where leading scientists seemed very confident that we are about 5 years away from a significant treatment breakthrough or even a cure.

Looks like one of the item I was bidding on was removed. Matt Hughes autographed shirt. Any idea why?

FUCK! I can't believe this! I woke up this morning and rushed to the computer to check on the auctions only to find that many of them have been removed for "Violating Ebay policy". I was not allowed to list that the proceeds were going to charity, so with less than 24 hours left they've pulled my auctions. I am very upset about this. I've tried to revise my other auctions to take that 1 sentence out, but it still appears in the original text, so who knows if they'll pull the rest. I will relaunch the auctions that were pulled within the day, simply omitting that the money goes to charity.

Thanks to all of the people who bid on these items. I really feel deflated now and feel like I've let a lot of people down. I'll repost the items and hopefully they can climb back and I can still turn in a good amount of money the the National MS Society. If you had been out-bid, this may be your second chance!

Damn, I'm really bummed out.

OKAY- Deleted Auctions have been relisted, this time with a letter about the charity (per Ebay's demands). Hopefully they won't be deleted again.

To all of those who bid on these items previously- bad news: we've got to start all over! PLEASE check these auctions out again and maybe you can even get a better deal!

My apologies to all who had bid and were so close to winning. Can I get some "TTT's" so everyone will see this on the front page and find out that they can (and must) re-bid if they still want the items? What a nightmare.

A lot of items previously going for near or over $100 are all back down to their minimums- Including the HUGE Bas Rutten package!
