Charity eBay Invivo X Sarah Jessica Parker

IS A 15 MINUTE CHAT WITH SARAH JESSICA PARKER WORTH $10,000?

A disgruntled eBay shopper told me this story: Sarah Jessica Parker joined other celebrities and donated her time to raise money for the Fashion Scholarship Fund on eBay. Her offer was a fifteen minute personal zoom conversation, another 45 minute chat about wine, and a case of her Invivo X wine. Bidding started at $1000, and our shopper excitedly bid the minimum. Time went by and Sarah noticed that another celebrity deal sold for only $1000 and she was worried that hers would only pull in that much (she had only one bid.) Sarah abruptly switched to BUY IT NOW for $10,000 to up the ante. Our bidder was very disappointed and couldn’t afford that much. He pondered “Is 15 minutes of gossip and a drink with Sarah Jessica Parker worth $10,000?” Remember it IS for charity…

eBay Mid Century Modern Ronald Reagan

RONALD REAGAN’S STOVE CAN NOW BE YOURS (FOR A GOOD CAUSE!)

While browsing eBay for midcentury items, we came upon this amazing stove from the home of Ronald Reagan. After Nancy Reagan’s death, the Bel Air house was sold and most contents auctioned off. Apparently this stove was too large for the auction so it was donated to the Junior Blind Foundation. Alas, it’s too big for our kitchen! Since proceeds go to the charity so it’s probably a tax write-off. It looks like it’s from the 50’s – this O’Keefe and Merritt stove features 6 burners, 2 ovens, a broiler and warming oven – a bonanza of cooking potential! The auction starts at $5000. We can just imagine Ronnie scrambling eggs in his bathrobe…
Here’s the eBay item number: 122244621086.

Charity Church eBay Kim Kardashian Kris Jenner scandal

KIM KARDASHIAN: NOT AS CHARITABLE AS SHE WANTS YOU TO THINK

Nothing is more irritating than a celebrity charity scandal – and they are ALL TOO common! You may recall, not long ago, Kim Kardashian put a boatload of clothes for sale on eBay when Kanye cleaned out her closet. She called it a “charity auction.” But according to RadarOnline, the fine print revealed that only 10% of the proceeds went to charity – and THAT was the Life Change Community Church that her mother Kris Jenner founded! Kim pocketed $180,000 from the charity sale and her mother’s “church” got $20,000. Since “churches” like Scientology, don’t pay taxes, all KINDS of tax funny business could be going on there.

Courtney Love Courtney Love Couture eBay Fashion

WOULD YOU WANT TO WEAR COURTNEY LOVE’S USED CLOTHES?

Courtney Love is leaving yet another beach party in Cannes, looking thoroughly thrashed. Maybe THAT’S why nobody is bidding those designer dresses that she is attempting to sell on eBay listed under Courtney Love Couture. She has outfits she has worn by Givenchy, Gucci, Galliano, etc. on sale at substantial prices, and so far no bids. Maybe that’s because she is so often photographed staggering around looking like she slept in her garments and nobody wants to pay that much to wear her second hand clothes.

eBay Farrah Fawcett Hair!

WHO IS SELLING A HUNK OF FARRAH FAWCETT’S HAIR – AND WHO’S BUYING IT?

Someone has put a hank of what is purported to be the late Farrah Fawcett’s hair up for sale on an eBay store called hunkwithjunk.com. Radaronline.com found the hair for sale for $1000 with no explanation where it came from. Farrah’s longtime hairdresser, Mela Murphy, couldn’t imagine who would sell the hair, or where they would get it. The creepy ad suggests that when the technology is available, perhaps DNA in the hair might be used to clone another Farrah!

eBay Keeping up with the Kardashians Kim Kardashian

THE KARDASHIANS WANT YOUR MONEY

Times are tough, so the Kardashians have cleaned out their closets and put everything up for sale on eBay. Kim has her own “store” called “Kim’s Closet” where she and her boyfriend Reggie Bush and her family are unloading mountains of stuff. Besides cars, they’re selling clothing and designer handbags and shoes. Lots of elastic Herve Leger skin tight dresses with stretched out backsides. The sisters Khloe, Khourtney, and Kim plus their mother Kris, are all different sizes, so there’s something for everyone. Bruce Jenner is even selling his ties. They claim a “portion” of sales are going to charity, but exactly what that portion is, remains unknown.

eBay Fashion Macy Gray

MACY GRAY WEARS BLACK TO THE BEACH

Photo Credit: Buzz Foto

Macy Gray looks really good at the Polaroid party in Malibu, but we can’t help but wonder why people wear black clothes on a hot beach day. Macy loves black all the time – you can tell because she’s having an online “estate sale” on eBay right now and most of her clothes for sale are black. And everything is authenticated. How she can call it an “estate sale” when she’s still alive is a mystery to us.
