I have been fortunate over the past few months to win a few nice prizes. I recently won an Xbox One, which I have already, so I thought I would put the new prize one, up for auction - with the proceeds going to charity.

 

You get a brand new unopened Xbox One 500GB with Assassins Creed Unity. I don't see a Kinect listed in the contents. 

 

Bidding starts at $350 (I think it's value is >$500, however, I want to encourage all bidders to be generous - the proceeds are going to a charity of the Winners choosing. The selected charity must be registered and recognised as a charity.  Auction closes 9pm on the 5th of June. Highest bidder gets it. No correspondence will be entered into. Money will be paid to me (within 5 days please), and I'll provide the Xbox and a receipt from the charity, to the winner. I'll also cover the freight from Auckland, to where ever you are (within New Zealand).

 

Please, no discussion, questions can be sent to me via PM. Bids only please, and your chosen Charity, if you wish to disclose it. 

 

I'll post some photos of the actual bundle shortly.

 

I'd really like to see us as a community get behind this, and ideally exceed the actual value of the item, so the charity that wins it, gets maximum value.

Think you'd be better off using TradeMe....... they usually waive fees for charity auctions.

Yeah you may be right. I feel like since I started it here and put an end date on it of June 5, I probably need to let it run here till then. I'll check with the admins!
