Michael Vick Football Cards Chewed By Dogs Sell for $7,400 on eBay

@ 08:42 PM (10 months, 11 days ago)

 

The eBay auction for 22 of the shithead's football cards, chewed up and slobbered on by two Missouri dogs, ended Wednesday as the winning bidder dished out $7,400 — with the money expected to be donated to the Humane Society.

The success of that auction, with 31 different bidders, created a craze of 25 other postings this week offering torn up cards featuring the disgraced murdering jackass.

But so far, the original post from Rochelle Steffen, of Cape Girardeau, Mo., has been the only auction to attract droves of bidders.

Steffen gave Monte, her 6-year-old Weimaraner, and Roxie, her Great Dane puppy, every Vick card she owned to destroy. The result: The cards worth $1-to-$10 were crumpled, crimped, chewed, torn and generally in a sorry state. Some even had corners missing.

"When I started this, I only expected to get $100 for a local shelter," Steffen told The Associated Press on Wednesday. "But it's received so much attention. It's for such a good cause."

The gnawed cards were the most expensive Vick items on eBay, with well-preserved rookie cards, autographed jerseys and other collectibles selling for far less and in a lot of cases buyers being PAID to take them.

  5. That REALLY grates my cheese. I couldn't get a bid on my "Fidel is Toast" toast. And I went thru a lot of trouble burning his image into that damned white bread.
