If you weren’t convinced that the store owners at Kamofie & Company were in it for the cash, then this might do the trick. Since selling off the surveillance footage for a cool $35,000 and being threatened with a lawsuit by Lindsay Lohan herself, the jewelry store has decided to auction off the necklace, as well!
Perhaps it’s not actually the money that they’re after, after all. I think it’s the publicity of being associated with someone who’s so polarizing in the media. They are donating the proceeds of the auction to charity, so some good can come from Lindsay’s shenanigans. After this, can we stop hearing about them???
A rep for the store said, “We have decided to sell the diamond necklace through auction, and give the proceeds to charity. We invite the public to make suggestions as to the most appropriate charity to receive the benefit of the sale’s proceeds.”
The auction will not take place until after Lindsay’s criminal case has been resolved.
What do you think? Publicity stunt???
