If you don't know what I'm talking about this are bracelets to support the Lance Armstrong foundation to help people around the world who are living with cancer.

This bracelets are becoming very popular around the world a bunch of celebreties are wearing them. The main bracelet are color yellow and NIKE but there are some that aren't original and they are coming out in different colors which means differents kind of cancer (I guess).

The funny thing is that this bracelets are not too easy too find in all countries it supposed to cost 1$ but peopler are selling it around 10$ by internet. So is this money helping to the fundation ?.. I guess no .. and people are taking advantage of this .. I thinks is more about fashion than other thing..

I'm fine with it , I just think people must not take advantage of this , they should sell it in 1$ too.

Ive got one, er had one. Took it off after a couple of weeks. I bought in front of Home Depot for a buck. I bet if you forward the eBay link to the Livestrong foundation, they'll take care of it. ;)

it's $1 for one, but u have to buy a bag of 10 ($10) from the website (lance's).

I got a bag and it took quite a few weeks to actually get the item b/c they are back ordered.

the first ones made were the yellow...they are the original. Now I've seen lots of colors representing different causes copying their design. I saw a hunter green one that says "support our troops" the other day. Copy cats.
