Pizza Time does it again - eBay auction for the first pizza after Pesach 

Pizza Time once again auctions off their first pizza baked after Pesach. Plus, as an added bonus, no waiting in line for pizza every Motzei Shabbos in May for the auction winner.

Comments:
hey this pie is only a couple of bucks more than a regular pie so why not bid and get it first

 

is it miter to buy a pie of pizza on cal hamoid and its more than a 6th the price this should be baned.

 

HOW CAN U SELL CHOMETZ ON PESACH

 

they're not selling chometz. they're selling the right to be the first on line

 

you have GOT to be kidding me!!! i just checked ebay and the bid is up to $500. that's NUTS. i truly hope the guy is ordering at least 10 pies and gets them all right away.
still, wayyyy too much money

 

the guy is paying 500 people so he needs that many pies

 

wheres the rav hamachshir? how is this even remotely halachically permissible? you cannot sell something you dont actually own AND you can sell what good is the sale to the goy if you have in mind for it to be so blatanly fake and symbolic? i would expect more from the so called torah community.

 

To the early commentators


definetly not a problem to bid, since they claim the money is for tsedakah. Which makes it a din of vouching for tsedakah. The person is mechuyev to pay regardless if they already have the pie in stock.

In worst case, the pie is only sechor betsidu, given at the owner's own willingness after Yom Tov.

 

WOW! It sold at $660.

 

i have just one question:

who is that fat shlub in the picture (on the left)????
