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.

Charity buzz Is fire!!! Besides being able to donate to a very charitable cause (the leukemia foundation), I was able to meet two of the most beautiful people in Hollywood (Courtney Vance & Angela Bassett) . We sat, talked(barely ate because we talked so much) and enjoyed each other’s company. This is the stuff that dreams are made of! Thank you!

Disappointed but determined! Won a trip through Charitybuzz with 2 round trip JetBlue travel certificates to Aruba! Only problem is there are not a lot of seats set aside for travel certificates! So you may find a flight out but no flight coming back on none at all for the dates you want to travel. I finally found a flight going to and coming back and requested to change my dates a week before only to be told the new dates were not available! Thank God I did not book my flights wiht the certificate or I would have lost out!!! Now I have to purchase my flights and I have until November to find somewhere to go so I can use my certificates that I wanted to use with THIS TRIP! UGH!!! Total inconvenience!!!! I just hope to have a beautiful time on my trip so I can leave a review of the hotel and my stay!!!! This may possibly be my first and last auction!!! Glad it went to a good cause though!

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!

There were two separate issues There were two separate issues. One lot I won had a signed guitar, signed sheet music and signed book. The sheet music came crumpled and the book never came despite multiple emails. The second was a VIP experience. It took multiple attempts to reach the person who’s name I was given before it was realized she didn’t work for the charity anymore. Still haven’t been able to book the experience
