The “Coffee with Tim Cook” charity auction has ended with the last bidder paying $610,000 / €473,528 to see the Apple CEO in the flesh at the company’s HQ in California.

Proceeds from the auction will go straight to the RFK Center for Justice and Human Rights, an international nonprofit founded as a memorial to Robert F. Kennedy by his family and friends.

CNN reports that there were 86 bids in total, the last of which was from an anonymous bidder. Many of the bids were reportedly placed by companies that either do business or want to do business with the Cupertino giant.

The meeting will take place at Apple's headquarters in Cupertino, California, and the winner may bring along one guest, though it is not mandatory.

The duo will also be required to sign an agreement stating that they will not disclose the contents of their discussion with Tim Cook. Liveblogging will also be prohibited, according to the NDA.
