Come on Down and Buy Bob Barker's Chair!

Posted Nov 14th 2007 10:24AM by TMZ Staff

Bob Barker's been away from television for just a month, but it seems like an eternity. For those of you who have wandered aimlessly in abject forlornness, fear not, your pitiable life may have just gotten a bit brighter. You can buy Bob's chair on eBay if ... the price is right.
Bob Barker and his chair
Mr. Barker has donated his on-set chair, emblazoned with W.G.M.C., which stands for "World's Greatest Master of Ceremonies," a nickname given to him by his staff of yore. And now it can be yours. Letter of authenticity included -- handwritten by Bob. That alone, is priceless.

100% of the proceeds from the sale will go to United Activists for Animal Rights.

16. I would not buy ANYTHING to support animal rights. I 'm in vet school, and I know animal rightists are psychotic and care about everything except the actual welfare of animals. I wouldn't buy it even if I wanted the stupid ass chair.

17. Obviously the auction originator didn't read the rules or instructions. I find it rich that the homesite for the auction (Golden-Road.net) tried to pawn it off as Ebay's fault when it's entirely the fault of the auction seller by not registering the charity with Ebay and providing to Ebay the 500 word Mission statement for the charity.
One poster went so far as to claim that Bob's letter of authenticity was sufficient proof -sorry but this is not the REQUIRED mission statement that is needed. Apparently, the poster either hasn't read the guidelines or has little disregard for Ebay's rules as well.
Unfortunately this reckless oversight makes both the charity and Mr. Barker look bad. Way to go GR.net!
