The Ten Items that Fetched the Highest Bids at the "Lost" Auction

Over the weekend, the ABC network decided that they hadn’t stolen enough of our time over six seasons of “Lost,” and that now they wanted to extract even more money out of the series. Greedy motherfucking bastards. Some serious goddamn cash was dropped at this auction, and best I can tell, all the proceeds went to the network. They raised over $1 million.

And these “Lost” suckers are apparently willing to shell out Dharma coin for cherished memorabilia. Apollo Candy bars went for $2,000. a six-pack of Dharma beer went for $5,000, a pair of Josh Holloway’s boxers sold for $850, and even the “I (Heart) My Shih-Tzu Shirt” that Hurley briefly wore went for $2,000.

Daft twits. You know somebody ended up spending their life savings on a pair of Kate’s briefly worn panties.

Here are the ten items that fetched the highest bids at the “Lost,” auction. If the winners sniff the memorabilia hard enough, maybe they too can find themselves in purgatory.

1. Dharma Van — $47,500

2. Lighthouse Wheel with names, numbers and mirrors — $27,500

3. Daniel Faraday’s Journal with Jughead Details and Des is my Constant — $27,500

4. The Frozen Donkey Wheel: $25,000

5. Hurley’s Camaro: $24,000

6. Dharma Jeep — $20,000

7. Swan Hatch Door/Computer — $16,000 each

8. Season 6 Production Art — $16,000

9. Pilot Script with JJ Abrams and Damon Lindelof’s Autograph — $15,000

10. Season 1 Production Art — $14,000

I've watched most of the shows and I don't even know what half of that shit is. I wish I had that much disposable cash.

Oh man, I would have totally shelled out some dough for the Hatch/Computer.

Faraday's journal would be fun to own. Not $27,500 worth of fun, but fun nonetheless.

All the money goes to ABC? You mean, the company that owned the items in question made money when they sold them? Wow. What a damn travesty. Why isn't Fox News covering this conspiracy, too, eh?

Faraday's Journal was, by far, the piece I wanted. I hate being poor.

just a correction: a large portion of the money went to various charities in hawaii- not abc.

You know, they had a Lord of the Rings traveling exhibit of stuff not too long ago. Why didn't they do that with LOST instead of farming it out to private collectors? I would love to get closer looks at this stuff. Strikes me as shortsighted to sell it all immediately.

HOLD THE FUCK UP. They sold Sawyer's boxers? Like ones he wore on the show, or just his boxers? I am so completely creeped out right now.

cj, do you have a link with details? I did think it was unusual to have all the profits go to abc.

Something wrong with people. Call me when one of the items is Naveen Andrews himself.

You know, there is a blue Battle-Fahrve for sale down the street from my house for about 2 grand. With a little ingenuity, and a metal DHARMA decal I'm fairly certain I could buy online, I could have that same van without selling my kidneys to pay for it.

I was a huge fan of the show and would love to own a prop, but geez.

Lighthouse Wheel Guy: Yes! I got names, numbers, mirrors, and a fucking cool prop for $27,500!

Donkey Wheel Guy: Yes! I got . . . dammit!

I considered checking this event out, but it was forty or fifty bucks just to get into the auction.

Ok, I can see wanting to buy a script that's been signed, or the Dharma door (full of secrets!) or even Sawyer's boxers (cuz I'm a pervert), but the Frozen Donkey Wheel?? WTF would you do with that? I mean, even if you find a nice place for it in your garden or something, you're still gonna have to explain what the hell it is to every guest you have over who sees it.

According to the NY Times:

An ABC spokeswoman said an undisclosed portion of the auction proceeds would go to charities in Hawaii, where the series was taped.

(For some reason, Dharma Pajiba won't let me embed the link. Fuckers.

I stand corrected. The link is active. I prostrate myself before Godtopus.

i wonder what a case of dharma beer would have gone for?

A helpful discussion may be worth provide feedback. I think that you should publish more on it topic, it'd not really become a taboo question but normally people are not enough to speak on this type of subjects. To the next. Cheers
