Los Angeles based AIDS Healthcare Foundation, which operates free clinics worldwide, recently opened an eBay auction featuring items donated by Chamillionaire, T.I., Three Six Mafia, and Lil Jon among other celebrities.

The items, which were part of the BET Awards gift-bags given to the aforementioned artists, included signed memorabilia, Chanel sunglasses, designer clothing, gold jewelry and watches.

The donations were personally dropped off by the high profile stars at the AHF table which was located at the 2006 BET Awards Gift Retreat Room

The single most expensive item, a Rapstor watch valued at around $3,900, was donated by Chamillionaire.

"You can have this watch" said the Houston bred artists at the AHF table. "I've got plenty of watches."

Actor Boris Kodjoe and will.i.am from the Black-Eyed Peas gave away everything in their gift bags. Actress Thandie Newton, Comedian Marlon Wayans, Remy Ma, Singer Ray J, BET's Humanitarian Award Recipient Harry Belafonte and BET's Lifetime Achievement Award recipient Chaka Khan also made donations.

The auction, which will benefit the foundation's prevention and testing programs, specifically HIV/AIDS education and outreach to women, kicked off on Monday (July 3) and will end on July 10.
