    Default Peter Brock & ebay

    Just to let you all know i have put up for auction on ebay a signed picture of Peter Brock in his 97 VS commodore that he won one of his 9 Bathurst wins in. The item profits will be donated to the Peter Brock Foundation. Feel free to place a bid. Here is a link http://cgi.ebay.com.au/Peter-Brock-A...QQcmdZViewItem

    Dude at least he is donating the money, unlike a lot of other heartless bastards trying to make a dollar...
    Good luck with the sale mate, good to see someone doing the right thing

    That's the most moronic post I've seen yet, he's donating the profits to the PETER BROCK FOUNDATION incase you can't read, you should find something better to waste your time slandering.

    Cheers

    I'd like to see a receipt if I was the winning bidder.

    I think its a bit weird that people are selling stuff straight up, if anything you should be buying it now. Would be worth more sentimentally and $$$ wise in 10 years.

    If the money is going to a good cause then I don't see a problem with selling it. IMO it's only when people are selling the stuff to make a quick buck for themselves that it's a bit mercinary. What happened to innocent until proven guilty?

    I dunno. I dont think hed be stupid enough to do that after what has happened about the Steve Erlwin memerobilia. You wouldnt come on a public forum and advertise it if you were false. Especially a Holden forum.

    This is true, all i'm saying is give him the benifit of the doubt.
    If he is gonna do what he says then that's good.
    People shouldn't go him if they simply don't know.

    You sir are truely a fool. If you don't want it, don't bid on it. The guy is doing what he thinks is right and wants to donate something to a charity - WHO ARE YOU TO JUDGE WEATHER IT IS RIGHT OR WRONG???

    FFS settle down. Atleast he had the balls, to tell us here. I bet the same thing, can't be said about you.

    By the looks of his E-Bay listing, it's genuine.

    Settle down guys! It seems this guys heart is in the right place. Heres a suggestion for solution for the fella selling it to prove hes legit. In your auction add something about payment to be made to: Peter Brock foundation (or whatever its called), The buyer must then provide donation details and receipt to seller before he sends it, this effectively mean the seller isn't making any money out of it at all and gives buyer peace of mind that their $$ are going to charity.

    NO MORE INSULTS, ABUSE ETC. WARNINGS WILL BE GIVEN TO THOSE WHO BREAK RULES. NO ONE HAS ANY PROOF THIS GUY IS DODGY, SO LETS ASSUME THE BEST OF OUR FELLOW JC MEMBERS!

    Julie's right, should change listing to pay directly to PB foundation... other than that -
    tr3nt - all you seem to do lately is pick on other people. don't you have anything better to do than whinge and bitch about others? I remember not that long ago you were in a bad spot and I for one helped as best as I could (offering advice about your dead transmission and a resolution) but now you're earning such big money you've been nothing but a prick! shut up you whinging little turd.

    PS. good luck with the sale. It seems like a great thing to do, but maybe your timings a little bad
