If nothing else, we can see the address and find another Blind Melon-related site in Hollywood.

True!
I still feel bad though, having someones check on Ebay is sort of tacky, even if it is a celebrity.

I saw that this morning. I hope this doesn't discourage Nel from giving things to people at the Vigil. We all want a piece of Shannon and to be close to him, but selling something his Mom gave as a rememberance is not cool. Especially since she gave them for free out of the goodness of her heart and now someone is trying to make money off of her kindness.

Wow... Nel would be pretty mad about that. I have one. The address in Hollywood is: 6833 Delongpre Ave. I also have one that I received at the vigil several years ago and believe me when I say I'm as poor as they come and I would SELL MY ASS before I sold ONE GOD DAMNED PIECE out of my collection! What is wrong with people??? I once bullied a guy on Ebay for selling a grave rubbing til he took it down. Now THAT was tacky and a friend of his had someone rub it and he gave it to the guy cuz he couldn't get to the vigil himself. He did take it down but I was nice first and had to get nasty to get him to pull it. People are assholes! I just sent the following message to the seller...hopefully I can shame him/her into taking it down. Wish me luck! (I am such a bitch sometimes!) I have 3 kids and am out of work for 3 and 1/2 years. I am disabled, recognized by my state as disabled, but can't collect because 1 of my sons had cancer at birth and I had to quit my job, thereby giving up those precious few quarters I am short to collect under SSD AND SSI. I have a VAST collection of BM memorabilia including a check but I would NEVER sell even ONE piece. With all your auctions, how can you sell that check for the kind of money you're asking and sleep at night? I applaud you for trying to take the best care of your kids possible but you are selling something so personal you would REALLY upset his mom. This is wrong and I don't think there's a Melon out there that will buy that check. If one does, it'll be a young kid who spends his allowance on it. Please pull this auction...you won't even get a bid. I'm not trying to be nasty but it hurts me and my fellow Melons to see this item. I can only imagine how Nel Hoon will feel when she sees it. Shame on you!

OMG!That Pisses me off so Bad!Out of a Beautiful Gift that IS Sacred,something sick has come out of it. I don't know if I want to Puke,Break Something or Cry. This is gonna Piss all Melons off.Where is the Humanity? That person disgusts me & I don't care who they are.They are Dead to Me! If I saw someone selling their old concert shirt or a rare record,tape or cd,I wouldn't care that much about it. But something of Shannons,given freely to let Fans have a piece of Shannon,it disgusts me to no end. Whew!Glad I got that out.I'm still Pissed but I don't think I'm gonna break anything now. Nel,We All Love You & I'm So Sorry About What Has Happened.We Wish We Could Have Stopped It.

Shame on you! #smileyhug# You're one great melon! Thanks Ishbell...I would never usually air my personal dirty laundry but I have been in the poverty level (income tax-wise) for 3 going on 4 years in January because of all my disablities but I would NEVER IN A MILLION YEARS sell my stuff like that. This person has a dozen other auctions up. I've been desperate enough to sell my things, jewelry, furniture, collectibles, but even my husband, knowing what I spent on my collection, knowing I could flip it, knowing he doesn't understand my intense love for Shannon and BM, has NEVER asked me to part with even one thing! I've not received an answer yet if I'll get one at all but I hope what I said will be enough. My love for Shannon and Blind Melon weighed against my need for funds? I'll eat Ramen noodles, beef-a-roni, ground meat, and cheese or pbj sandwhiches indefinitely. I'd rather keep all my stuff and my self-respect. Diana #hoonsmiley# #smilieIloveblindmelon# *hey guys...guess what? It's gone! The auction is gone! We did it! You know, we should all apply for the BM security team! Bringing justice to BM and the memory of our beloved Shannon! YAY US!

I sent a message to him yesterday as well... Basically just telling him how upset Nel would be. Hopefully he takes it down.

Yay! ;D Did you send him a message about it? To sell something like that is pretty low.
