Shawl & more! in auction for Open Mike fund

I deliberately put this above the line for widest circulation.

90% to the Open Mike fund, 10% to Mudcat.

I will pay mailing costs to wherever so don't worry if you're not in the USA.

Maybe one of the clones can combine Seamus' thread and this one?

? two seperate auctions deserve two threads.

Ahhh..okay.

Thanks Mario. So I should start a new thread as I just started an auction as well?

Definitely Deb - the more publicity the better!

I'd suggest one thread for 'Auction Items for Open Mike Fund'. It might seem good to have separate threads for everything, but once people are in a thread, they can view everything instead of having to click on separate threads, all of which only tell them they need to look elsewhere (the auction).

Just my opinion. You can start loads of threads, but I'm not going to read all of them when I can just go look in the auction.

Well, for some reason my opening bid of $20 didn't take, so I bid on my own CDs myself. :-)

Deb - be careful. I ended up bidding against myself when I put a few books up for auction last year!
However, for a good cause like this.....hhmmm?

Youse are awesome.

I'll have some CDs to put into the auction either tomorrow or Thursday. I'll post to the auction when I have them in my hands and have heard the first one.

You bet, Seamus. I do hope other folks will bid though so we can get a substantial amount going to Laurel to help her out.

Go to the above site. I'll send that bracelet to the winner of the auction 90% to Open Mike 10% to the Mudcat. If some one can post the picture and the following text in the Auction Forum so much the better.

The Jeweler's Choice Sterling Silver Bracelet from Don Meixner.

Thanks,

Don

Is there some 'rule' about a 10% cut for the Cat? I didn't think there was.

No rule Sorcha, but if we're using the 'Cat to do this I thought it only right to make some contribution to the Mudcat fund. Simply my thoughts when I put up my auction item.

well - I figured more threads wouldl bring more attention to the auction - once they are in the auction then they'd see all the items.   The point is to get attention and bids.

It'd be nice to have a few more bids for my album ...and there are other copies of it which could be available (to help Open Mike) if anyone's disappointed not to get it ...

thank you all---soooooo much!

i have heard that there is an article about me and my plight
on the Sing Out! magazine news web page...and that there is
a link there to Rapaire's address for donations to be sent.

I appreciate all the out pouring of help and just want to
let you know how much it means to nme. I am on the way to
play at a little folk fest in oregon that folky frank is
putting together in Toledo...a street fair, antique sale
and also car and quilt show...Toledo oregon is just a few
miles inland from Newport. The beat goes on.....
