Over our five year history Desert Bus for Hope has gotten quite the reputation, not only for raising ludicrous amounts of money for Child’s Play but also for having some of the best auction lots of any fundraiser, online or not.
This year our official sponsor Wizards of the Coast has pulled out all the stops, donating some jaw-dropping one of a kind Magic: The Gathering and D&D items that are so amazing we’re promoting them ahead of time. If you know anyone who likes Magic, tell them about these lots NOW.
This year we are auctioning off:
- 3 uncut sheets of the latest MtG expansion, Innistrad in FOIL – one commons/land, one uncommon and one mythic/rare. Each sheet contains 121 cards and measures approximately 28” by 39”.
- A MTGO account with 4 of EVERY card currently in standard
- Complete sets of M12 and Innistrad, in foil
- A Legend of Drizzt Rulebook, signed by Drizzt creator R.A. Salvatore & Rulebook author Peter Lee
And we’re GIVING AWAY stuff that’s just as amazing!
These lots are for the serious MtG fan and collector. The uncut, foil sheet of Innistrad commons/land will be auctioned off on Sunday, November 20th, the MTGO account on Monday, November 21st, the foil uncommons sheet will be auctioned on Tuesday, November 22nd and the rares/mythic sheet will hit the hit the block on Wednesday November 23rd.
For more information on all the Wizards of the Coast lots you can check out our live auction listings page.
The foil Innistrad rares/mythic sheet. Holy cow.
Looks great. Hope you guys play some D&D and Magic again this year. I love that stuff. /me nerds off
holy. fucking. shit.
It’s a shame those people at Gathering Magic want nothing to do with these charity auction items. Leaves more for me to drool about.
Where is this going on?
Do want.
Cut as you play?
That’s just incredible, I would absolutely DIE if I went home with that foil Innistrad rares/mythic SHEET…
This is the long awaited TP my bunghole has been searching for…
Holy shit! Do want.
Stuff like this that makes me wish I wasn’t so broke.
New wallpaper for my study. Nice.
This… oh man… this could be one crazy as hell auction. *dreads moderating it…*
You guys are giving away stuff that’s just as good as a sheet of foil mythics and rares?
I think I might have forgotten how to breathe for a good ten seconds.
@greg – you can check out the FAQ page for more details, but the auctions will be done live during the broadcast. To bid you just register for a donor account and join the IRC chat.
Shoot me :))))
I want one.
It’s… it’s beautiful…
(sobs quietly)
Wow! Could the desert bus members post the exact times when this and all other Wizards of the Coast live/silent auctions and give aways/challenges are happening on the item pages? It would definitely help for those of us with hectic schedules but still want to contribute. Looking forward to this and all other upcoming activities!
Oh. My. God. If anyone even TOUCHED this apart from me after I won it, I’d be in jail. Unless one of those cards could save me….
Oooh, sparkly…
Also for the record, it was you guys who got me into MtG, and influenced me into spending hundreds of dollars on cards.
Just thought you should know =P
