... less than $1 per donation ... less than a money order.

Mmm...not quite true; I found out that at two supermarket chains I can buy "MoneyGram" Money Orders for 99 cents. I once paid for an ePrey auction this way from a seller in Canada.

I'm in Frank. If you are still in need of a US PayPal account I can handle this (I did this once before when collecting funds for Natalia after Katrina). Should we shoot for a donation of at least twenty, but accept whatever others can afford? Just a thought...

 

[VictorM.]

Count me in.

I think its a good idea too. How about international funds and how to get them together. I doubt if im the only guy abroad thats interested so how to get the money to you or whatever camera shop thats decided to purchase from. Another thing is supporting the sponsers of the the forum, If its a contest related camera gift maybe it should be bought from POPFLASH as theve stepped up first to give away a camera. You can PM mail me when the whole plan is in order. What is the tenative date of purchase?

 

[lynn]

Yes. Please add my name to the list...

Bryan, you can use PayPal or a money order to contribute. Ray_g has volunteered his account. (thanks Doug) Details to be decided still, just looking for interest right now.

I don't know. I still have this picture in my mind of joe in front of his computer, reading/writing/ranting/moderating on RFF, while sitting naked eating a banana! It raises the question, "What would he do with the afore mentioned camera if he got it?"

Geez, I'm in for twenty zoids, but he's got to promise LESS INFORMATION about his "moderator atire." ....... or lack thereof. 🙄

Put the newbie down for $20 as well 🙂

Let's put any surplus towards a decent pair of shorts 🙂.

Great! 30% there in less than 2 hours. If this idea gets nixed (I should have checked with Jorge first) we may have to go underground via e-mails or PM's.

 

[Chaser]

If we can get it all arranged for payments ahead of time i bet Tony at popflash would work with us to take multiple payments and ship it directly to Joe. It's an option at least....

[Honu-Hugger]

Are we going to begin committing with cash now, or do we wait for a certain number of pledges?

 

[FrankS]

Good idea Chaser, we will look into that.

Doug, I think we should still wait. Good thoughts and ideas are still coming up.

 

[ray_g]

Heh... Joe -----> darkside 😉

Standing by with an itchy PayPal trigger-finger 🙂...

Count me in too. I'll put some stuff onto ebay so that the $ come from the paypal balance 😀
