Good idea

but i think it may have implications in regard to the tax boys and not to mention the amount of work for Adam and the crew - and how do you police it? The auction a few months ago must have been fairly good in obtaining operating capital and maybe something like this every 3 or 4 months would be the way to go. Donations rather than fees and charges seems to have no tax or organisational implications.

i was thinking just as you sold an item just whack it through as a donation as what ever you want to donate no set rate

Agree with 7739

Cant see how donating moola from the sale of stuff is going to help, and how do you determine the rate for someone selling something for 20 bucks to someone selling something at 1000 bucks?

Liked the idea of the auction (dunno how well the blokes who offered there services for the action liked it)

and it was nice of you to think of the site.  I think donations would be greately excepted by Adam and everybody on this site.

Appreciated

I generally hope that anyone that does any business from the site, or sells a few items, that they donate.  I certainly won't ask and its not a problem if people don't want to, its purely up to the individual but its certainly appreciated.

Last years events were a one off and had nothing to do with me.  Would be a great bonus to boost up next years FW Exxy comp.  Hopefully we will be accredited with neatfish by then as a website setting the standard in 'best fishing practice.'

Cheers,

Adam

Hi Ya,

Slightly off topic, but I can't help but notice that there are more and more 'for sale' posts happening in the Fishing Discussion forum.  What's wrong with using the For Sale forum or are some more privileged than others?

Cheers.

More than just fishing on this site, i think thats why this site is one of the best. We all help each other out..networking !  Maybe it is time for another auction like we had last year, everyone chipped in...was great to see.
