trailboss Posted February 21, 2009 Author Report Share Posted February 21, 2009 Hey guys, sorry for not being arround. The sat link is down again and I had to take a drive to dad's place an hour away to use his dial up. All tickets should be issued as of 4AM GMT. At the sugestion of some of our American members I have decided to extend things by a few hours to allow the full weekend for the US to get involved. I was reminded that a whole different lot of members come in on weekends so you now have untill 2PM AEST (GMT+10) Monday to donate. The draw will be Tuesday. Thanks to those who have donated. A couple of late entrys on the prize list as well: a pair of hand made pens from Graman over at RWG1.1. Reagrds , Col. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulw Posted February 21, 2009 Report Share Posted February 21, 2009 As an Oz expat I must say I am overwhelmed by the generosity of the members of this board and indeed the world community in general. I am travelling home to Melbourne next week but in the meantime I am in contact with my parents regarding the events. The main message I'm receiving is that just about everyone either knows or has friends, relatives of someone who has perrished or lost their home. In a world I perceive as growing more selfish and self centred I am now reminded that deep down people still have the milk of human kindness. Thanks to those members who have put this together.

If anyone has a prize they don't want feel free to put it up for sale/ auction at the forum of your choice and donate some/all of the proceeds. Maybe split them between the appeal and the forum fund? It ain't over yet! Yep, I have a couple of watches still in the kitty for auction! There's a gen with a retail of over 800 bucks from a most generous Jamin72 (again!) and a Brietling from WBK.

Don't forget I'm still having to travel for the best part of an hour to dad's to go on line so I'l only be chking the mail once a day. First time will be in aprox 20hrs. Thanks to all those who helped make this possible. We have raised $3285 so far including those who opted out of the raffle but not including those who donated but did not pass an amount on to me. I suspect the total is well in advance of 4000 bucks with more to came from the auctions. Well done everybody. Give yourselves a pat on the back. Oh, Onzenuub, I need your address too mate. There's a special little thankyou headed your way for the work you put in. For those who don't know Onze has been takeing care of posting at Geeks for me since I am not a member there as well as bumping the thread everywhere. Onze even offered the use of his PP acount for those without CCs to donate.Considering you live on the other side of the world and have no connection with this disaster appart from living on the same planet I think you deserve it. You are NOT to auction/sell it tho. It's for you buddy. I'll catch up with everybody tomorrow. You are all stars in my book! Many thanks and regards from my self and the people of Victoria, Col.

offshore Posted February 24, 2009 Report Share Posted February 24, 2009 Great job Trailboss. I'm sure all the members here at RWG, join me in thanking you and onzenuub, for your tireless efforts in this raffle. The replica community as a whole should be extremely proud of their combined contributions, which will only help to swell the coffers, with desperately needed funds, for the victims of this tragic event. Thanks Col. Offshore Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spider87 Posted February 24, 2009 Report Share Posted February 24, 2009 (edited) I'm glad we raised so much for them and I hope the situation there gets much better. Congrats to all who won something. :-) and thanks TB and onze and all of the people who donated prizes and money to this great cause. I am proud of everyone and surprised humans would go to such lengths to help others (as I only see the selfish ones in every day life).
