About Charitybuzz
Bidding on a private lunch with a celebrity or a walk-on role in a TV show is a normal Tuesday on this charity auction site, where the winning bids fund the nonprofit tied to each listing. It's less a store and more an auction house for once-in-a-lifetime experiences alongside more conventional items like watches or art, with proceeds going to the listed charitable beneficiary. Because so much of the inventory is experiential rather than physical, the refund rules read more like an events contract than a retail return policy - once you win, you're expected to follow through on scheduling. Read the specific lot description closely before bidding, since blackout dates and travel requirements vary by listing.
Philanthropically minded bidders chasing a genuinely unique experience, rather than bargain hunters, are the real audience here.
