Benefit plea to all

Post by Reeltarded »

First things first. There is already a small group of people working in the background to come up with $800 to buy Passfan's Asteroid so we can make a benefit auction out of it on Ebay with proceeds going to his brother.

We are a little short on donations, but not real short. I won't say how short because I am not exactly sure how much because it's mostly out of my hands now!

Being public hopefully gets it done quicker and maybe someone can help manage how it all happens. Trying to communicate with a list from private messages is not so easy.

This isn't the only thing planned for the ThermOronic Angels to do, but it's a great and worthy start. We can talk about the other stuff later.. but please.

If you can afford to donate to this cause, do. We aren't all rich in the bank, but the richness here can't be usually counted like money; there's too much to count.

Thanks for being here and taking the time.

Excellent! Exactly.

So Passfan can tell us when it's paid for and we need a person with a great seller rating on Ebay to auction it, unless someone has a better idea?

Scott, is it ok to post your PayPal addy in the open?

Sure that would be fine.
anything that comes in over will be returned or forwarded to Miles for the ThermOronic Angels fund, whichever the sender chooses. I felt blessed tonight to have so many Angels in my corner.

Just let us know when we get close. A couple guys that said they would send money are busy for a day or two. I hope it goes over. It's probably worth more than you were asking.

We need someone with a massive Ebay +++++ seller rating and someone to write up a listing that tells a story about everything the amp means.

Amazing peeps in this place!

I will ship the amp to whomever wants to list it. I dont want anyone to put their rating on the line without checking out what they will be selling. I always stand behind what I build.

Maybe we should ship it to Martin. He is probably going to give someone advice on how to fix every amp ever made at some point.

Just kidding. (sort of)

My eBay is 430, 100%. I'm superconductormusic. Someone's gotta have 1000+, right?

That beats me. I only have 69, 100%.

Besides, if I sell it, I won't be able to bid on it. :D
