Dear auctioneers,
My name is Ufuk Güler, and I am a bowmaker from Turkey.
As most of you know, my country and Syria recently experienced a devastating earthquake that has left many of our neighbours and friends in need of help.
It is heart-wrenching to see the destruction and suffering caused by the earthquake. But in moments like these, we must come together as a community and extend a helping hand to those in need.
In response to this tragedy, I have decided to sell one of my bows in this auction, with all proceeds going towards relief efforts. I am humbly asking for your participation and support in this endeavor.
Your contribution will not only help those in need, but it will also show that we are a community that cares for one another.
So I invite you to bid generously and help us raise funds for this worthy cause. Thank you for your time and consideration.
And also, I would like to thank FX TOURTE HONG KONG Ltd. for their valuable collaboration.
