Let me save you all the aggravation… Let me save you all the aggravation before you bid anything from CharityBuzz / CharityBomb. This is nothing but a scam, hiding under the “charity umbrella.” What they sell is a lot less if you go directly to the source despite them saying the “value” is more than twice what the actual cost is. I don’t mind paying for stuff but I hate being scammed. Someone needs to look into this further, I’m certain none of this is actually going to charity.

Appreciative Georgian I am a frequent user of Charitybuzz. I figure that Uncle Sam is going to take my money, so it is best to get to do unique things or to get unusual items, especially if it benefits charity; therefore, it becomes a win-win situation. I have found the Charitybuzz staff to be most helpful, especially if donors seem to be dragging their heels on redemptions. Keep up the great work!

I’ve gladly supported the charity… I’ve gladly supported the charity function here but tbh I don’t plan on bidding for anything going forward. Not that I don’t support the charity but the Charitybuzz has poor customer service and tbh somewhat disingenuous business practices. Sad but true

We had a cooking lesson with Chef… We had a cooking lesson with Chef Maisashvili, what a wonderful evening. Chef got us all involved in making our dinner, it was fantastic. Chef was very organized, focused and engaging with a positive attitude (and his daughter, our interpreter as Chef speaks Georgian was great). The food and wine were so good, but most of all, we just had a great time with a great host. Stephen

A Stellar Cause: William Shatner auction The chance to get William Shatner to follow me on Instagram caught my eye! I put an initial bid in and CharityBuzz reminded me of when the auction was to close. I won and helped the Robert Kennedy Human Rights Foundation. Win-win. The follow up was immediate - assisted by lovely people from CharityBuzz and RFK. Mr. Shatner follows 40 people… including me!
