The auctions end tomorrow and there hasn't been as much bidding as I hoped. Please place a bid to support the Alzheimer's Association. The new auction schedule will posted soon.

Dave, did you contact fan sites/message boards for each actor? I've been watching the bidding out of curiosity and the only big jump in bids I saw was the day information about this was posted on Stephen Lynch's message board.

I'd really hate to see you not get the money you could for this great cause and with the number of fans these people have I've been surprised at the lack of bids.

Also, anyone reading this who thought about bidding but decided against it, not only is this a wonderful cause but everything is CHEAP so far! Most are at the minimum bid of only $10 - I'm sure you can afford that!

Yeah, I have been contacting numerous fansites/message boards and I have hit up myspace by storm, but nothing really has come of them except for the Stephen Lynch posting as you mentioned. I am going to try and find some more tonight so hopefully some more people see them.

Oh, and only the first four auctions end tomorrow. Last Thursday's auctions end Thursday at 9pm and Friday's end on Friday at 9pm. These were only the first 12 auctions.

Haha, I was gonna say...
"Wait, what?! Its over already??"

Oh, I also wanted to tell you all about a new little program though the Elephant Project.

First of all, all auctions will be raised to $20 after this round as the starting price. The reason is, I never fully realized how much money I was putting into this and basically every auction is costing me around $6. So to auction something off for $10 and only make a potential $4 profit, is not much for all the work put into creating each auction package. I won't be able to reimburse myself for any money spent until I become a legal non-profit organization. Sorry for any inconveniences if you only had $10 to bid with. Remember it is for a great cause!

So for the new program! We will soon be offering, for a $10 donation to the Alzheimer's Association, an 8x10 photo of your choice. If anybody wants to take advantage of this offer, I will inform you all of when this program starts.

Since this first round was pretty experimental and it doesn't seem like you're making the money you COULD be, could you maybe extend the auction? Or would that be unfair to those who bid within the seven days?

It'd just be a shame to only make 10 dollars when you could bring in more...

[Luckydave14]

I am not able to extend the auctions according to eBay's rules. The auctions end in an hour and a half though.

Come on guys, less than a half an hour and all of the auctions are under $30...poor Trisha Jeffrey doesn't even HAVE any bids on her signature!

[Luckydave14]

Posted: 12/6/06 at 8:45pm

Actually, Trisha got a bid!

[MistressoftheHouse]

Posted: 12/6/06 at 8:49pm

Ah, I see that now! Good for her!

EDIT: Go Lynch! $102.50, woo! That's really awesome.

Stephen went for $102?!?! That's amazing! I thought Sutton would have gone for more.

[StarStruckGB]

Posted: 12/6/06 at 10:08pm

I agree, That's amazing.
I thought Sutton's & maybe Celia's would be on top.

[Luckydave14]

Bump.

Posted: 12/7/06 at 6:14pm

I wanted to bid, but it said you only ship to the US and I'm in Canada.

[Actrss100]

Posted: 12/7/06 at 6:52pm

I'm kind of surprised at sutton's number! I would think it would be higher...oh well lol Good luck to you

[Luckydave14]

Posted: 12/7/06 at 6:53pm

Oh, it's not supposed to say that! I'll ship anywhere!

[Luckydave14]

A few more minutes to place bids.
