LucasFilm Auctioning Star Wars Memorabilia

Posted by chrisd on from the these-are-not-the-auctions-you-are-looking-for dept.

Captain Chad writes: "LucasFilm has donated some items to eBay's "Auction for America". They include a lightsaber used by Ray Park (Darth Maul) and a stormtrooper helmet used in The Empire Strikes Back and in Return of the Jedi. Check out the list of auction items! I think some of the bids will get astronomical. Would anyone be willing to give me a few hundred thousand dollars so I can get the lightsaber?"

    Sounds great and all... but why not donate some of the revenues from the films (which we already pay a hell of a lot of money to go see anyways) to these charities... why auction off only one or two things which can only be attained by the rich?
