MLP:FIM OFFICIAL POSTER AUCTION FOR CHARITY (CLOSED)
Hello everyone!
I recently found out that a fellow artist on deviantArt named Karine ( http://goddess-ofthe-night.deviantart.com ) is suffering from cancer and is in desperate need of donations to get the medical help she needs and deserves. This is no small matter - doctors have given her less than a year to live !
Her family will not help, and as she is not a child, no organizations will sponser donations for her, so it's up to us.
Of course, you are free to donate any amount at any time. You can find out how to do that (through PayPal) here: http://www.goddess-ofthe-night.com/donation
But I thought it'd be fun to have a little auction in her honor as well!
Since she is a fan of My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic, I've gotten together some MLP:FIM swag to offer to you.
*Update!*
New auction tiers with all-new goodies have been added, thanks to caring users like yourself!
If YOU would like to add a tier to this auction, let me know! Thank you!
---ANY BID AMOUNT = Set of four posters. These are the Map of Equestria, Royal Wedding, Season 2, and "Chaos is Magic". This is what the initial auction is for.
---FOR EACH $100 UP TO $500 =
MissMillerz will draw the winner a pony character (one for each $100), shaded and highlighted, like so: http://www.furaffinity.net/view/8813068/
---$150+ = Assorted pony toys from McDonald's (as seen holding down my posters*), and at least two blind bag mini ponies (I may be able to scrounge up more before the auction ends).
*UPDATE* - I've added 8 more blind bags from me and my friend's personal collection, and
has added another of her own, making a current total of 11 blind bag ponies.
*(Please note, the Lily Blossom is missing a tail. It fell out - this is a common problem with this specific pony, unfortunately...)
---$175+ = One hand-made MLP pin or magnet by
WickedSairah. Winners choice on which character. Head shot only. Like this: http://www.furaffinity.net/view/8515281/
---$250+ = That giant MLP 25th Anniversary Pinkie Pie plush shown in the photo. I apologise, the Pinkie Pie is actually G3 - if you win the auction above $250 and do NOT want this Pinkie Pie, please let me know, and I will see if I can replace her with something G4-related (but it may not be as large). I can't make any promises though, I'm broker than broke myself, and most of my pony collection is from G3.
---$400+ = One full-color one character commission from yours truly!
TO BID:
Please comment below with your bid. If you wish to outbid someone, please reply to THEIR bid, to let them know you've outbid them.
You must increase the amount of a bid by at least $5 (this is to prevent last-minute sniping with penny bids, you sneaky things, you!)
IF YOU WIN:
You will not be paying ME, you will be making a donation to Karine via this link: http://www.goddess-ofthe-night.com/donation
Please add a note that the donation was from a "Pony charity auction", or some other specific detail, so that I can confirm from her that she got the donation on her end.
Then, show me proof that you have donated (a screenshot is fine, but edit out any personal information you don't want to share with me!).
That's it!
So, I think I will start the bidding at $30.
Auction will end at 9PM EST, September 22.
Oh! And if you can't bid or donate, PLEASE SPREAD THE WORD. That is just as much of a help! Thank you!!

I looked at donating, but paypal automatically sets it to euro's instead of dollars. I'll see what the current exchange rate is and be a bit above it to be safe, but yeah... Since it will be in euro's and not dollars, it will be a lower amount (since the dollar is a bit less valuable then teh euro atm).
can't bid due to no money or paypal, BUUUUT

hate to say this, but those you can get free at target or walmart. the auction is a good thing to help someone in need, but try it with something that isnt free. like artwork, or even better. a complete collection of the MLP:FIM blind bag figurines. i know i would totally be bidding on the whole set.
The posters ARE free, but not easily obtained - I had to travel two states over to find any. xD
And while I usually wouldn't auction off free things, these are selling for $30 each on eBay, so some people are out there who can't find them.
I'd rather they be sold for charity than sold out of greed - I like them, but I won't put them up on my wall or anything.
Plus, it's the only thing I have to offer - I'd buy something to auction off instead, but I probably won't even be able to pay my own bills in a few days. xD Seriously, times are dire. x3
Well, actually, I take that back - if I had the money to buy things to auction, I'd just donate it straight out! xD
I thought about auctioning just a commission from me, I've done that in the past, but I need to be doing commissions for myself right now, or I'm going to be bad off myself. xD
My intentions are good, although I'll admit that selling something that was free is a bad idea.
So far, someone's bid $30 though, so that's better than nothing!

Well, in some areas they are easier to get than others - and I hate to say it, but a lot of people are taking the WHOLE LOT when they find them, and then selling them on ebay, leaving none for anyone else. When me and my friends found some by chance in another state, we took only enough for each of us, but in he back of my mind I knew the next guy was brobably going to take them all. xD
If they are also available at Target now, though, they may be more common now. But I've thrown in other merchandise to make biidding worthwhile! And so are others below this comment, which makes me so happy!

Can't bid, but I'll throw in a hand made MLP pin or magnet if the bidding gets above $175. Winners choice on which character. Head shot only. Like this: http://www.furaffinity.net/view/8515281/
Thank you so much! I also found another blindbag I can add. I will update the auction info when I get to a computer (I'm on my phone right now)
I didn't think that others would add to the auction! That is so kind! I wish now that I had asked first if anyone had anything to add, so I could organize better!

I'm broke, but for every 100$ the auction gets I'll draw a MLP character;s) for the winner
A picture for every 100$ basically lol
Shaded and highlighted

You are AWESOME. I didn't think of the idea that others might want to add to the auction prizes! I wish now that i'd asked first if anyone wanted to add to the pile, so I could have organized it better!
Thank you so much, and I will update the auction as soon as I get to a computer (I'm on my phone)

Aww sweet, a boss MLP poster and the McDonalds toys I was looking fo- wait I can't donate. Drat!!
But wow, that sucks for the girl who has cancer. I actually wish ai could because that's no way to go through cancer. Looks like a donation isn't all she needs, she needs a hug, too. :(

When I hear about these kinds of thing, I can't help but plug it out for a cause: http://www.furaffinity.net/journal/3838646/ Just helping bringing some light to what's going on and hopefully it'll help people know what's going on and hopefully it'll help out the bidding
Spreading the word. Good luck. :D

You see Baree? That's a real-life, brony friend of mine. I just called him that THE DOUCHEBAG OUTBID ME xD
Though that means I can strike a deal with him, and he can pay a lot more, which is much better for the operation of course.
It was a hilarious moment. And I don't have to sell any ribs :P

Donated what I could. Thanks for the heads up about her. Her DA had a journal saying she was shutting down the fundraiser and everyone's money had been refunded (because so many people were calling her a liar and demanding more and more proof), so hopefully those who got their money back will donate again.
