Glad you guys are doing yet another auction! So any interest in the following items? I have tons of comic books, episode 1 figures, tons of star wars vehicles in varying conditions and some original metal thomas the tank engine toys. The star Wars toys are perfect for custom makers!

I know when I was selling some custom vehicle fodder, it was selling really well, though it was a lot of older stuff that wasn't complete and missing parts, perfect for custom fodder.. I'd say break them up in lots of some sort, or one big huge vehicle lot and see how it goes. EP1 figs.. eeeh.. I can see people wanting one or two figs, not many though... I don't know about comics.. but if you ahve and DC ones, my bro's trying to complete some lines, so you never know, see what you have, see what people are looking for then see about maybe putting a couple up for auction(or in the sales/trades section).

We have some good bids comming in for the current items,

What are some future items of intrest to you, the members?  Action figure related, Gentle Giant, Sideshow, Acme, Movie posters,  you name it and we can see if it is in the vault. Remember all the proceeds go to charity and there is no stinking EBay fee to deal with.

Hey bud, though we appreciate the desire to raise more money, as of right now ONLY site admins will be allowed to start new auctions.  This is to protect the membership, as well as being able to keep a tighter control on sales and such.  We don't want anyone on either side getting ripped off!  Though we don't anticipate this being a problem, it has in the past, and we want to avoid that.  So please, don't take any offense, but we'll be deleting your previous postings for auction items at this time.

ok i understand. wanted to auction the items here ratjer on ebay. they're all to raise money for the Eli toy drive. not sure how to go about doing this as i'm not an admin.

[wraithnine]

think all you need to do is PM all the relevant details and they will take care of it

[Tamer]

AFE we really appreciate you being willing to donate your items for sale here to raise money for Eli that is great!

That being said, we want to spare our site members from any of the negativity that can result from the running of said auctions. If anyone has done any selling on ebay I am sure they can associate, but we do agree selling here is gonna enable us to not have ebay nick the total auction price we get.

We are just getting this section started so please bear with us as we get this going. As of right now only Site Admins will create the auctions and deal with any issues if they arise. If you have items you would like to donate, please contact your local site admin and I am sure they will give you the relevant information you need to get your product to one of us so we can get it listed.
