Our friends over at Blizzard have pointed us toward an auction for a worthwhile cause that just happens to have a basket full of World of Warcraft items up for auction. The event is being held to support the Peninsula Education Foundation in order to help all schools in the Palos Verdes Peninsula Unified School District. This is not an official Blizzard event and is not supported by the company, but WoW fans may be interested in the wealth of game-related items up for bid.

This WoW basket contains autographed collector's editions of the game and its expansions; a Spectral Tiger mount loot card; one free year of gameplay; an Arthas helm; a cinematic art of Wrath of the Lich King book; the music of Blizzard 2-CD set; the 2008 BlizzCon comic collection; a deluxe edition of the WoW Miniatures core set; a talking murloc plush toy; and a Vindicator Maraad action figure.

The estimated value of all that is $3,500. The current bid is $1,100 and the auction closes on April 27 at 5 p.m. PDT.
