Justin Bieber’s Nike basketball shoes fetch $62,000 at eBay charity auction
A pair of Justin Bieber’s Nike basketball shoes has sold for more than $62,000 in an eBay auction to benefit a food bank in his hometown of Stratford, Ontario.
Justin Bieber’s grandparents, Diane and Bruce Dale, donated some of the singer’s personal items to raise money for the Stratford House of Blessing food bank.
The auction started January 31 and closed at noon on February 7.
Justin Bieber’s Toronto Maple Leafs comforter sold for more than $6,000, his pillow case went for more than $3,000, and his ceiling light came in at just under $2,000.
The charity says on its website that Justin Bieber and his mother chose to donate the items “because they were helped by us in their time of need.”
Organizers say Justin Bieber autographed the items when he was in the area over the holidays, and each came with a certificate of authenticity signed by his grandmother. The winning bids aren’t finalized until confirmed by eBay.
