862, A different kind of site donation
Posted by azdave, Dec-31-69 06:00 PM
Here's an idea to raise some bucks to keep this site funded.

I placed a Star turbo manifold on ebay today for $1 with no reserve and I'll donate 10% of the final selling price to 2GNT (up to $20 max).

If I get a deadbeat buyer the manifold will go back up for sale again. I will not end the auction early for other offers.

I'm not here to boost the auction price. I thought this might be an idea that a few others may consider too. Look around. Got anything to sell that would put some cash in your pocket and benefit 2GNT too?

Opinions? Would it be appropriate to mention the site donation in the ebay ad or do we want random traffic visiting the site? Do you think it would yield some quality recruits or just generate a lot of "one-post wonders"?

I do that all the time, Ive actually given alot of stuff away to people in exchange for them donating to 2gnt, its just a great way to give the site some money without taking any out of your pocket.

2GNT will be getting a $20 donation as soon as I'm paid for the auction.
