Justin Bieber’s sneaker sells for $5,500 on eBay
First hair, now footwear—Justin Bieber’s belongings seem to be quite a hit on the charity circuit these days. The Biebs recently donated a single Nike sneaker, in his signature purple, of course, to Stratford Northwestern Secondary School. The proceeds from the auction will help Bieber’s former school raise money for a broadcasting and communications studio (which couldn’t be more fitting). The size 7 1/2 sneaker features a few scuffs and some gravel and dirt, as well as a scrawled black autograph. In case anyone questioned the authenticity of the shoe, it comes complete with a letter attesting to its authenticity. The singular shoe sold on eBay for $5,500, a price that plummeted from $12, 400 on the last day. Apparently, some of the higher bids weren’t legitimate. Leave it to those over-enthusiastic beliebers.

In fact he donated both sneakers but the school has thus far only auctioned one, figuring that they could potentially double their windfall. The strategy seems to be paying off
love them ill buy them for 45555555$$$$ if you want?????
It turns out that the $5500 was not a legitimate bid either. We think that the highest legitimate bid is actually closer to $1000.00 The students in charge of the campaign did a great job and learned a great deal about working with the media.
