According to F5, “On Saturday August 2 in San Dimas, CA at 11:00am PST, all this stuff is getting put on the auction block. According to a sales rep at J. Sugarman, auctions typically last 2-3 hours and you can place bids in person or online. The items are doled out depending on the demand, so if someone wants to try and pick up everything in one swoop, it may be put up like that. On the other hand, if someone just wants to try and grab a few of the over 15,000 key chains, they may parse this out.”

It appears that at least part of the auction has made its way to eBay, where for $89,999, you can get your hands on 45,000 books and DVDsfrom many former Full Tilt pros. There is a separate lot for 20,000 Full Tilt t-shirts, collared shirts, and sport shirts, with men’s and women’s sizes included. The clothing lot, if you’re looking to re-tool your wardrobe, is $49,999. If you’re interested in headwear, you can snatch up 18,000 Full Tilt hats for $53,999, or about $3 a hat. Again, men’s and women’s sizes are available.

According to text found on the eBay auction, “Full Tilt Poker Store, $3,500,000 inventory. Full Tilt Poker [was] formerly the world’s leading internet poker site when the government disallowed internet poker gaming for money in the United States. Full Tilt Poker started to use a point system. Those players who raked up points were invited to the store to reclaim their winnings with gifts.”

All of the online auctions end on July 28. The live auction that F5 referred to is set for August 2, so it appears that any leftover inventory will be sold to the highest bidder.

PocketFives reached out to Full Tilt Poker for comment and press officials told us, “The reported auction is not a Full Tilt Poker event. We will be requesting the organizer to represent the event appropriately.”

The inventory is sitting in California and the buyer(s) are responsible for any shipping costs incurred. There’s apparently quite a lot of Full Tilt merchandise up for grabs, which could make for astronomical shipping costs depending on who buys it. F5 explained, “The breakdown looks like this: over 193,000 items (they say over 200K) spread over 28 categories.”
