THE CHALLENGE

You need to auction off four items from the HEBB house. Find or create a picture of each item and describe it as you would if you were an auctioneer trying to sell it.

Item number one, a clock. But not just any clock, no. This funky clock. I was looking in this box in the bedroom and found this clock and thought that someone may want to buy it. I mean come on? Who doesn’t love this weird clock that is bound to bring confusion to your friends! Bid starts at 10 gallons.



Do you love paintings? Do you love wine glasses? Well here is two in one for a low price, unless you are willing to make it higher. These wine glasses are made by Chris of our very own Member in the house! The bets start at 20 gallons!



This mirror is cool and funky. Do you like the Ravenclaw look? Well this mirror is blue and sliver and might be made for a Ravenclaw! So come on you Ravies! Start betting on this mirro, you will not regret it! Bet’s start at 6 gallon.



Found this baby in the Diary room and thought someone may like it! With its horse leather and soft tissues, who wouldn’t mind it. I know some of you leather lovers want this. Bets start as soon as you name it, no lower then 15 gallon though

LOT #69



Yes, it is true! The amazingly comfy, changeable Big Brother Diary Chair is here! It changes its size AND look after the sitter's wish - amazing, huh? Buy this amazing chair for no less than 80 Galleons - and a hug!

Any buyers?

LOT #70



Who wouldn't want to own the legendary golden cage, that once belonged to the all mighty HE Oowlie (...ahem, ME!!!!!!)?

Fated - well, that's what he liked to call himself, anyway! - and is now up for auction for only 120 Galleons.

Take it or leave it - it would look great in your living room, though!

LOT #71



A one piece example of a feather - but just not any feather! Personally plucked out by some evil owl hunters (*coughRAISTYcough*), from MY own butt! This beautiful, shiny feather is auctioned for 50 Galleons - a cheap price for an elegant quill, if I may say so myself.

LOT #72



Two EMPTY bottles of rum. What, sounds ridiculous? Well, what if I said Captain Jack Sparrow emptied these bottles when he was abandoned for the SECOND time on that God-forsaken-island-no-one-knows-the-name-of? Yes! His lovely autograph is also decorating these vile looking bottles, and all this could be yours for only... say, 100 Galleons?

Now this guy looks a little run down, but I promise you it is well worth it to buy this *broken* iPod before others get the chance to! Affectionately named Theodore by yours truly, he just so happened to run out of his limited battery supply during only the first couple of my days in HEBB2 house. It was then in one of my more sleep deprived moments that I chucked poor little Theodore out of a second story window onto the hard, hard ground. Poor guy, must have been found by some deformed creature from the animal enclosure by the looks of it—and to think this would never had happened if Big Brother would just let us have computers in the house…*mutters*.
