If I felt that the buyer's main reason for buying the T-shirts was to make a generous contribution to charity, then I would applaud her. If she had given the money to Comic Relief and then burnt the T-shirts, I would have respected her.
However, if you look at her eBay bidding history, you will see that she has bid on nothing but BB-related items. We were also told by sian1980 that the buyer is a member of the Michelle Bass Info website.
The buyer is therefore a fan. She wants these T-shirts; she thinks they're important enough to be worth over £1000. And that's what is sad and bizarre. Michelle and Stuart are probably reasonably harmless, moderately pleasant, quite pretty human beings, but they have done nothing whatsoever to deserve the kind of hero-worship with which the buyer seems to regard them.
