LONDON, Dec. 14 (UPI) -- The British rock band Coldplay has announced plans to sell instruments they have used, as well as other memorabilia, in an "End of Decade Clearout Sale."

The BBC said the proceeds from the eBay auction, which is to begin Thursday and to run through Dec. 31, are intended to benefit the charity Kids Company.

"All items will either be signed by the four of us, or accompanied by a certificate of authenticity, again signed by all of us," the band said on their official Web site.
