Charity December 15 2006 5:51 PM EST

Thank you to everyone who donated! You helped raise $24,356,234 for the Child's Play charity!

This thread is to sell the accumulated cash for US dollars which I will then donate to Child's Play. (Please see here, here and here for more information

I have decided to separate the cash into 5 bundles of 5M each. with luck, I'll get a few more last minute donations to bring the total to 25M. If not, I'll use some of my own money.

Please indicate which bundle you are bidding for and quote a price per million (since that is the standard notation in these parts).

Bidding starts at $15 per Million. Sale ends Sunday Dec 17 at 6pm Server time. Please be generous as your money goes to help sick kids (If you have any concerns about this sale or my reliability please speak directly to an admin)

Gnu, you do realise that those are per million bids don't you?

Flamey December 16 2006 5:27 PM EST

hopefully, Gnu knows that he's paying $100 USD for 5 mil if he wins.

lol.

GnuUzir December 16 2006 5:34 PM EST

Oops actually I did not, I thought no one was bidding >.<

I guess I am being really charitable then XD

GnuUzir December 16 2006 5:35 PM EST

I guess it was not in a big enough font for me...

Charity December 16 2006 10:22 PM EST

Due to the confusion, I have added a "total" column to the table. If you didn't understand that this was price per million, and wish to retract your bid please do so as soon as possible

Thank you, everyone who bid. I will contact you soon to finalize the deal and transfer the funds.

I also have some Seeker bolts to sell of and will hijack my own thread for that purpose. You are welcome to bid with CB$ as the Charity pot is a little shy of the 25Million I just sold :-) Any takers?

I have sent all the money and chatmailed my paypal details.

GnuUzir owes $75 USD
{cb1}Freed owes 2 * $75 = $150 USD
{cb1}jayuu owes 2 * $80 = $160 USD

GnuUzir December 21 2006 9:35 PM EST

All Paid Up !

Thanx

Charity December 23 2006 12:15 AM EST

I have received payment from GnuUzir and jayuu. Freed says he sent the money but it's not showing up in my paypal account.

Phrede December 23 2006 12:52 AM EST

I did the old trick of sending and not confirming the payment - I have done that 5 or 6 times before. It is now sent.

TheHatchetman December 23 2006 5:47 AM EST

It takes one helluva scammer to not even know you're doing it :-P jk, i do it all the time myself. The confirm page does look like a receipt of some sort tho, doesn't it?
