BP Drive - Summer Auction items

[BB73]

Some BP posters have generously donated some tOSU football memorabilia on behalf of Buckeye Planet. Five items (#2 thru #6 below) have been provided by WoodyWorshiper (a/k/a Dubs), and an autographed plaque (item #7) is being provided by BUCKYLE. Any speculation that either of these guys was inebriated at the time of their donations is blatantly false, and such vindictive innuendo will not be tolerated!

These items are now being auctioned off, with all of the money being donated to BP.

This post will be used to keep track of the bids, which should be sent to me via regular PM (not the newer buddy messages). I will update the highest bid for each item as often as possible. The minimum bid for each item is $15.00. The winner will be the person with the highest PM'd bid as of 5 p.m. Eastern time on Monday, August 10th. After the donation to BP has been confirmed by a site admin, we will send the item to the winning bidder.

The winning bidders will also receive $10,000 in vCash for each dollar of the purchase price, and will not have to pay any shipping charges.

Here are the items (if you wish to bid. please send a PM to BB73, and indicate which item number you are bidding on):


#1) The Winner's Manual for the Game of Life, autographed on the inside cover by author Jim Tressel (full disclosure - I read this copy, but it's in excellent condition)

We have another generous offer from WoodyWorshiper.

I have a crap-load, and I mean a CRAP-LOAD of old Sports Illustrated covers. I began a subscription in 1977 to 1982 and another one from 1984-1987. Have some great, classic mags where basically you name the star. Ali, Jordan, Kareem, Jack, Magic, Dr. J, Bird, Miracle On Ice, Swimsuit Issues, etc, etc, etc.

What he would like to do is offer these for sale to BP, and donate the sale price to BP. To see if he has a cover you want and figure out a price, PM WoodyWorshiper directly. For tracking and because the funds will end up here anyway, payment can be made to BP - just make sure you note that all or some of the transaction is for WoodyWorshiper's donation.

Thanks, Dubs!

I think that plaque may have been designed for a "portrait" layout rather than "landscape". Clearance bin at the local Big Lots?

No shit sherlock.

It's an autographed pic of Krenzel. If you're bidding on the plaque, you may be a TSUN fan.

The unique perspective makes this a most rare find, indeed!

Exactly. It's like an error on a baseball card. It's worth more than normal. You can hang it two different ways, and technically, you got it right!
