Zabel still CARES on eBay

As we reported on October 18, Erik Zabel is participating in the eBay project to support the charitable CARE organization, but the German branch of the online auction house isn't making it easy -- it accidentally deleted all the auctions involved. All have been put back online and have started over, for an additional 10 days.

Zabel's offer, a surprise packet which includes not only fan items and sponsor products, but also a "meet and greet" with him, was a €667 in the first attempt. As of midday Thursday, the second edition had a bid of €451, the highest bid of any of the ten celebrity auctions being sponsored by CARE.
