Shabby but Chic Powersellers

What is the auction for:

More than 1600 items dating from 1960-2004 including vintage dolls, MOD dolls, loose and MIB contemporary dolls, clothing, accessories, vehicles, furniture, cases and houses...we are shooting for the largest Barbie online auction in history

Who are the SBCP :

It is a private ebay group of female powersellers that discuss all sorts of issues, from auction strategies to chemotherapy. Members can come there throughout the day for laughter, encouragement, venting, or just some company during the sometimes long days of creating listings.

Why did we decide to do this/chose Gilda's:

From the inception of SBCP, a charity auction was discussed. You could say this auction is more than 6 months in the making. We chose Gilda Club because everyone in the group is either a cancer survivor, currently fighting cancer, or has had friend/family members who have struggled with the disease. Gilda Club provides support for not only cancer patients, but friends and family who are also impacted by their loved one struggle with the disease. From the first contact with Gilda Club CEO, Diane Perlmutter, the group knew this was the right charity. Gilda club reaches out with heartfelt love, and provides community, love and laughter the simplest, but sometimes most effective medicine.

Ebay is the perfect venue for our event because ebay selling plays positively into the lives of many cancer fighters in a phenomenal way, allowing them to work from home as their disease permits, giving them earning capacity they might not otherwise have while undergoing chemo, radiation, etc. Because some of our SBCP member's are in that position, as a group we're keenly aware of Ebay's role in enhancing the independence of women, so in addition to everything else this is a celebration of what Ebay means to us all.

About Gilda's Club

Our Mission Statement

The mission of Gilda's Club is to provide meeting places where men, women and children living with cancer - and their families and friends - can join with others to build emotional and social support as a supplement to medical care. Free of charge and nonprofit, Gilda's Club offers support and network groups, lectures, workshops and social events in a nonresidential, homelike setting.

Who is Gilda?

The world knew her as Rosanne Rasannadanna, Emily Litella and Lisa Loopner. We remember her for the phrases she created with writer Alan Zweibel such as "Never mind!" and "It's always something". As one of the "Not Ready for Prime Time Players" featured in the original cast of the groundbreaking Saturday Night Live, Gilda Radner charmed us and made us laugh.

But not everyone knew she played another role, a part she called "The Invisible Cancer Woman" in the saga of 'The Adventures of the Independent Baldheaded Chemo Patient'. She wrote about this and other experiences living with cancer in her book, It's Always Something.

Gilda was diagnosed with ovarian cancer on October 21, 1986 and died at the age of 42 on May 20, 1989. Her legacy is the pantheon of her comedic characters, her films with her husband Gene Wilder and her work on Broadway including 'Gilda Radner Live From New York'. Another lasting gift is her inspiration for Gilda's Club, a free cancer support community. Gilda was part of a cancer support community after her diagnosis and her dream was that anyone dealing with cancer would be able to receive the kind of support she found there. Following her death, Gene Wilder and Joanna Bull, her cancer psychotherapist, started Gilda's Club. The first Gilda's Club opened in New York City in June 1995.
