I was in tears reading through the Q and As at the bottom, Brilliant.

I hope whomever wins pays up and the charity benefits.

From the ebay ad


NEW WEBSITE

I have received over 2,000 questions about the wetsuit, which I've not even made a small dent in (sorry!) so I'm setting up a website which will allow the Q&A's to continue long after the auction ends.

I'll be answering the questions I've missed as well as responding to new questions about other subjects such as garment care, manners and soup.

Visit the site to register your interest: www.bearsdontwearwetsuits.com

Had a good laugh reading it but although it was at £9500 when the auction finished it had dropped to £8999 how's is that possible?

Kind regards

First saw the link via twitter a few days ago, when high bid was at £11,000 - shame some dicks feel the need to have a laugh and make joke-bids when it's for a very serious cause :(

Having returned from Japan in August, the need for aid has resonated with me. Anyone not having £9k for a wetsuit ( :lol: ), please donate to shelterbox - down here in the West Country doing great things...like so many.

Sadly the top bidder has declined to pay, utter ar$e.

Dan has had to offer it to the next highest bidder, hope they honour their bid.

God only know why anyone would bid and not have the ability/desire to pay up, beggers belief.

Hopefully Dan is going to do it as a raffle instead… I'll let you know, all in a good cause!
