Great bids on these already. Waide's shirt is now up to £102.

Thanks to all the bidders.  Keep them coming!  Remember, all proceeds go to Rovers Inca Trek.

Waide's shirt is now at £130, and Ben's at £47.

Come on Doncaster - lets get some funds raised for the IncaTrek and NSPCC.

No offence Rob but the shirts in question are not exactly high profile. Neither player is at the club at present.

£142 and £62 respectively now, so despite SheepskinStu's naysaying  ;-) , the good folk with an interest in the club are making great bids to support this worthy cause.

Deebee, beautifully framed if I may so, sir.

The auctions close whilst we are romping to victory over Leicester, so dont forget to throw a cheeky bid in before you leave home on Saturday!

i dont know if you know but if you would have selected that all profits go to inca trail you would have saved some of the ebay fees, which for both auctions would have probably meant £20 extra going to charity

Yappa; is that available in Ebay where the seller can select that all proceeds are going to charity?

If so, is there still a way round this where instead of the winner paying for it immediately; you start again and make it \"buy it now\" for the winner; whilst changing the charitable aspect on the new item on ebay?

Hope that makes sense!

I'm no expert so maybe wrong but try editing the auction you may be able to change it
It around the bit where you input the auction start price

Gonna try that.  Thanks chaps.

Still at £142 and £62, so someone is getting a bargain if there are no more bids.  The auction closes during the game today, and the lucky winner will be messaged to arrange delivery/collection this weekend.

Please ensure you have placed your final bids prior to setting off for the game today if you are in the hunt for one of these shirts.

BTW, the Sean McDaid shirt remains unclaimed.  If you bought a raffle ticket for this please check.  The winning number was 21, which was probably sold in the Keepmoat's bar.

Indeed it is.  They are safely secreted in my personal art gallery, aka the garage.
