ok, bids are current.

[obligatory "go donate more $" rant]
THESE DON'T HAVE BIDS:

43. NBA 2K and NFL 2K - both disc only in generic case
102. World soccer? (boxed, NTSC-J)
106. Joe Montana II SPORTS TALK FOOTBALL
170. Battlefield 2 Expansions
171. Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell
207. Performance/InterAct brand game-port controller
209. Four Gravis GamePad Pro gamepads (three are boxed - these are game-port gamepads)
211. Gamestop co-axil input cable for oXbox/360/PS1/2/GCN
214. The Aviator
220. Hero
232. Naked Lunch (used rental)
234. Indiana Jones Original Trilogy
238. Skinny Puppy - Back and Forth Series 2
239. Fatima Mansions - Tima Mansio Dumps the Dead EP
245. "Hidden Faces" by Edward Curtis - Native American masks
246. PC World: Best of 1998 (includes AOL 4.0)
248. How to Win at Nintendo Games #3 (by Jeff Rovin, 1990, yellowed pages)
272. Lot of Various convention program guides and catalogs (comes with sampler comics and posters)
298. Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope - Millennium Falcon gyroscope kids meal toy from 1996 theatrical rereleases

That's 19 items - all of these are EASILY worth AT LEAST $1-$2, if not $5-$10 or more.

Also, there are far too many items which are bid at less that it will cost to ship the item. Remember, for U.S. bidders - you don't pay shipping. The idea behind this is that you will kick in the extra shipping monies that you would normally have to pay on eBay or other places so that the $ will go to the charity instead. The reason that some donors and some of us mods are covering shipping is so that you'll chip in more for the items. If you don't do this, I doubt shipping will be free in future auctions. :(

When bidding, ask yourself how much you would pay to have the item shipped to you and bid accordingly. A box of magazines or comics or a lot of 3 or more games for $5 or less is ridiculous. This is about giving to charity, not bargain hunting. We are nearing the end of the auction, so please start getting these numbers up!
