OJ Simpson Real Estate declined a $15,000 offer to purchase the engraved Bible of Kim Kardashian's late father, Robert Kardashian.
According to peopleSkim's founders contacted Malcolm Lavergne, the manager responsible for selling Simpson's belongings to pay off his debts, and bought heirlooms before they were auctioned.
“The amount is why I didn't have an option. Because why do I spend $15,000 in real estate money, why do I spend $15,000 on lawyer fees – selling to Kim for $15,000?” Labagnu told the outlet.
“It's a zero-sum game. It's a bad business model. If Kim had offered $150,000 for it, we would have been in the court that approved this outside of auction,” he continued.
Lavergne explained that Kim, 44, can bid on the Bible online.
“She might be cheaper than 15 grands, so who knows,” he said.
The “Kardashians” star rep was not immediately available on Page 6 due to comments.
The Bible holds a handwritten letter Robert wrote to Simpson on June 18, 1994.
“OJ, this book is useful,” reads the note. “God is loved, and he speaks to you in his words. Read this book every day.
“God has a clear plan for your life. You are his child and he will use you again. I love you, and God loves you.”
Robert stands by Simpson, the side of his longtime fellow peer, and was hired as the defense attorney for the latter at a murder trial.
However, the loyalty of the lawyer grew up near Simpson and Brown Simpson, splitting his family as ex-wife Kris Jenner and children Kourtney Kardashian, Kim Kardashian, Khloe Kardashian and Rob Kardashian.
“Just before the trial began, Robert sat down and wrote a handwritten letter, saying, “Look, I know I don't agree with what's going on here, but this is something I have to do for a friend,” Jenner said during his 2009 appearance on Dr. Phil.
The retired NFL star was found liable in a civil trial in 1997, but was declared an innocent star.
Robert Sr. passed away in September 2003 at the age of 59 from esophageal cancer.
As for Simpson, he died of prostate cancer in April 2024. He was 76 years old.
