Bernie Madoff's Personal Effects Up For Auction

bernie madoffWe've seen the houses and yachts go up for sale, now some of the smaller Madoff effects are ready to hit the auction block in an upcoming U.S. Marshals sale. Many of Madoff's pieces including his Rolex watches and a satin New York Mets jacket with the name 'Madoff' on the back in big orange letters are up for sale this weekend. The auction features flatware, furs, art, golf clubs and Mrs. Madoff's designer purses. Even Madoff's stationery and personalized Post-It notes are up for bid.

The pieces will be auctioned off through Gaston & Sheehan Auctioneers Inc. at 10 a.m. EST on November 14 at the Sheraton New York Hotel & Towers. Bidding will also be available online. The Wall Street Journal added up the over 200 lots which have an estimated value of around $500,000 but could go for more depending on just how badly people want a piece of this epic swindler. Check out CNBC's gallery of some of the items.
