I listed quite a few Tolkien items today on eBay. I borrowed info and pictures from several TCG members' websites (I hope this is okay; if not, please let me know, and I'd be glad to remove any of it).
All of the proceeds from these sales go to the charity Compassion International, so I encourage you all to bid on at least one item!

Thanks for the heads up! I will add most of these to the auction tracker, but in the meantime here they are in bulk. Now I wish I still had a VCR so I could use that Film Portrait!

Thanks to all those who bid and/or won something. There were some very solid bids made. It wouldn't be a bad time to list some of your extra copies of some of these items.
The Daily Telegraph interview ended at $237.
The Return of the King ended at $315 (no dust jacket).
Smith of Wootton in Redbook ended at $127.
An ex-library copy of Old English Exodus went for $177.
Two later impression hobbits (10th & 12th) went for over $100 each.
It could be that people were more inclined to bid because it was a charity auction, but it wouldn't hurt to try to list some of your duplicate copies.

I bought the
Daily Telegraph interview, and paid this much as it was going to charity, I would not normally have paid anywhere as near as much for the item (no more than 25% of final price), but well done for raising so much money for charity
