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
