This will never make it to the end unfortunately. A bunch of jokers will mess this up with fake bids. To bad its a great cause but there wont be a problem finding a buyer.

My bids are real, I paid 10,000 for a game before and I would pay that much for the Gold NWC. However if you think these are fake bids, why not end the auction now and I will buy it for $10,000

I don't think that is true at all.

The Campus Challenge auction I did a few months back ended at $20,100 and the high bidder paid for it with no problems.  Just because it is a high price doesn't mean it will be a fake bid by someone.

Sometimes they get messed with, but I don't think that's the case here yet.
That's one hell of a tax deduction.

Awesome to watch this, very interested to see how it pans out. You are quite the generous man indeed... though I wonder why you even obtained some of these rares if you only held them briefly.

Here is my thought if you are trying to win don't share your bid with anyone till it is over.

Holy moly. You must be really generous/and or wealthy.
lol you are going to have to send the winner a signed documentation and proof from the charity agency so they can write off some taxes.
