pre-sale estimate&amp;quot; -- but even if all you wanted was a little something to piddle around the house in, well, fuggetaboutit.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;i&gt;[James] Gandolfini was at the auction to see Soprano&amp;#39;s signature 
white tank top, light blue striped boxer shorts, striped short 
robe and leather scuffs went [sic] under the hammer for $21,250, 
again soaring above the pre-sale estimate of $1,500.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;i&gt;
 Another robe -- forecast to go for $1,500 -- fetched 
$13,750... &lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;Proceeds of the sale -- largely organized by Gandolfini -- went to charity, benefitting viewers still traumatized by &lt;i&gt;The Sopranos&lt;/i&gt;&amp;#39; season finale. (Ha, we kid; the money went to &lt;a href="http://www.woundedwarriorproject.org/" target="_blank"&gt;Wounded Warriors&lt;/a&gt;.)&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;i&gt;[Thanks Scanner Em!]&lt;/i&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;img src="http://www.nerve.com/CS/aggbug.aspx?PostID=104716" width="1" height="1"&gt;</description><category domain="http://www.nerve.com/CS/blogs/theremoteisland/archive/tags/The+Sopranos/default.aspx">The Sopranos</category><category domain="http://www.nerve.com/CS/blogs/theremoteisland/archive/tags/auctions/default.aspx">auctions</category><category domain="http://www.nerve.com/CS/blogs/theremoteisland/archive/tags/charity/default.aspx">charity</category><category domain="http://www.nerve.com/CS/blogs/theremoteisland/archive/tags/James+Gandolfini/default.aspx">James Gandolfini</category><category domain="http://www.nerve.com/CS/blogs/theremoteisland/archive/tags/Christie_2700_s/default.aspx">Christie's</category><category domain="http://www.nerve.com/CS/blogs/theremoteisland/archive/tags/Wounded+Warriors/default.aspx">Wounded Warriors</category></item></channel></rss>
