Yeah, haven't heard anything, I'm curious too. I would have gone for Will's drum from the Talk video, but I um, already got something the other day when "Bidder 18" retracted their bid.

I just got Will's Drum from Talk

Ha! That's too funny! What a coinkiedink. Well congrats to you. Makes me wonder who would have gotten it if we were both going for it.

YAY! Congrats! I REALLY wanted that, but it was way out of my range. I'm soooooo glad it went to a Coldplayer!!

I was also considering Jonny's platinum disc (as I was the first bidder on it) but it went insane the last few minutes

Yeah, I noticed that too. I thought that one would be reasonable given the price earlier, but it increased by $3,000 or so in the last few minutes. That was surprising.

Yeah, I know, it was kind of BS!

I'm actually really surprised that Chris' VOX teardrop guitar is now the most expensive item!!! It even passed his first guitar AND the globe!!!

However, it was the funniest picture, so maybe that's why

crazyduckette · 30-12-2009, 07:13 PM

I'm so glad that some people on this board have managed to get some of the stuff.

Especially that globe! I can't wait til you post a pic of it, Carrie

and everyone! I wanna see pics of people hugging their purchases, hahahahaha

It's because the way item's are listed (poorly) - not enough details, not enough referance pictures, not enough background information.

I was planning to bid on the first guitar until the last few seconds, and my max was higher than the closing price but I didn't bid because of the lack of information - IMO if they had put a single picture of Chris playing his "first guitar" as a little boy, they would have doubled the price easily. I searched all over the internet for a single picture of him playing that guitar, but couldn't find any so I went for his Takamine instead, which you can see him play in every single concert during the early days of the band and the parachutes era.

As some of us theorized earlier, this may actually be one of the most unique items being auctioned. It seems this guitar was "plain" during the X&Y tour, and they painted it afterward as "practice" for painting the other guitars for the Viva tour. Unique indeed.

Must be nice to have all that money
