+Cheesy pigs Posted December 22, 2007 Posted December 22, 2007 Email sent to auction two coins. Quote
+mousekakat Posted December 22, 2007 Posted December 22, 2007 I don't have much, but I'm willing to donate one of each of my and Hanna's geojellies... maybe some other jelly owners want to get together and put a bunch in an auction, all three versions, and make it a big parcel instead of just my 2 wimpy jellies? Maybe a mix of jellies and nerdz? Anyone interested We don't have to mix the jellies and nerdz, if there is enough interest we could do 2 different "packages" or could even do parcels of nerdz, chicks, jellies, sig items, etc?

SoCalGeocoins Posted December 22, 2007 Posted December 22, 2007 (edited) Every little bit will help. We have 20 Items going up for auction tomorrow for seven days, so please bid generously. The money is set up to go directly into Tracy's PayPal account. Thanks, Matt & Nan Edited December 22, 2007 by SoCalGeocoins Quote
+T"n"T Posted December 22, 2007 Posted December 22, 2007 Thanks so much for all you folks are doing. I am o the way back to hosipital. Last night was kinda rough and I had a small breakdown and had to have the EMT's called to house. I am trying to be strong and have some down moments. The good news is things are stable. They ran a long series of texts yesterday and we should be hearing something today. Thanks for all the prayers and thanks for the offers of help. The e-mails, phone calls, and visits at the hospital have really helped. Thanking 3Doxies for all their wonderful support and Matt and Nan for helping with the end of things we really had not begun to think about. Will keep posted. Quote
+MustangJoni Posted December 22, 2007 Posted December 22, 2007 Let us know when you list the items. I'm sure the community will help in anyway they can! Thanks Matt & Nan for taking this on! Quote
+Rockin Roddy Posted December 22, 2007 Posted December 22, 2007 Guys, I am not in any shape to donate at this time...but I feel I must try to help. I will be going through my coins and seing what can be donated. Will be back soon! THANKS for spearheading this project...no insurance and a very sick family member is a bad combination, let's all try to lend a hand!! Quote

+Nochipra Posted December 22, 2007 Posted December 22, 2007 TNT just finished getting out the personalized poker chips out to everyone just before this happened. If we can get everyone who participated in that project to donate at least one of their chips, I'm sure we could get a good price for a set on ebay? We would be willing to donate one or two towards a set or two to sell on ebay. Quote

+mousekakat Posted December 22, 2007 Posted December 22, 2007 So, does anyone want to put a bunch of different edition geojellies together and put them up for auction with me? Like I said, the same could be done with other smaller coins, like the nerdz, mwgb chicks, etc.... Naomi Quote

Let's give it till Jan 10 to get the jellies to ya, that way with all the postal holidays it gives a decent amount of time, what do you think?

CONSIDERABLE soul searching was needed before I could even THINK about this...and even typing now, I have reservations...but the health of Tony and the welfare of Tracy and the youngsters is MUCH more important than my having this coin...and I will still have my 2007 LACKEY to remind me of the WONDERFUL gift Bryan gave me!! This coin is being sold with Bryan's permission. Whoever will post the coin on ebay, please contact me! Quote

+tadpole379 Posted December 23, 2007 Posted December 23, 2007 The Geocoin Nerds did a charity ebay auction where we auctioned off a set of 36 nerds. We raised $132.50 from the auction. The proceeds were to be donated to St Judes Childrens Research Hospital. I sent an email out to the group, and so far everyone agrees that instead of donating the money to St Judes, we would like to donate the money to Tank and Tracy. Quote

WI_Robin Posted December 23, 2007 Posted December 23, 2007 WOW - The WI_Robin coin is already up to $51! Way to go gang. I sent an e-mail out to the geocoin nerds group. I had one e-mail that got sent back as undeliverable. If you don't see it check your junk mail. I would like to collect one of each (if possible). I think I have enough nerds left to do trades to get them all if it will help. So if you have a nerd and want to donate it to the auction or trade for one of mine send me an e-mail. Thanks. This Christmas if you feel you have nothing to be thankful for just consider your health as one of the greatest gifts you can have; anything beyond that is a bonus!! Quote
SoCalGeocoins Posted December 23, 2007 Posted December 23, 2007 (edited) I just got home from work. Wow what a great response from EVERYONE! Matt is out of town right now but Im going to have him log on so he can take care of any requests to list anyone's coin they want to auction off. He deals with all that. Matt said he has several of our coins to go up automatically on Ebay at 6:30pm PST tonight as well. They will have a 7 day auction. So watch for them. I'll be out tonight and will check back soon. Thank you so much to everyone who has responded with your generousity,donations and concerns. Nan & Matt Just a thought, if you decide to list your own auctions it might be a great idea to put on the listing page that they are coins to help a cause or something along that lines. That way the geocachers that dont frequent the forums are also made aware and will more be more likely to spend more on the coin. Edited December 23, 2007 by SoCalGeocoins Quote
WI_Robin Posted December 23, 2007 Posted December 23, 2007 On the sub-title for my listing it says that it's a "Tank and Tracy auction". Last time I did a "charitable" auction on E-bay it got pulled because it said in the description that the proceeds where going to help----. You have to be careful how you list it because if it says in the description that it is for charity E-bay will pull it. I will be doing a Nerds auction as well. I have gotten several responses already. Thanks to all who are donating their nerd! Quote
