Multiple Miniature Collection Sale

[Valloa]

An update to the Rare Limited Edition Blood Bowl Chaos All-Stars team!


Through a generous donation we have a new miniature that will be included with the auction. This miniature is of a fantasy fantasy football evil elf thrower that can also represent Rex Farsight, who was also part of the Chaos All Stars at some point.

We wanted to thank everyone so very much because our goal is in sight with only 1,000.00 USD to go!

Thank you everyone for the well wishes, they have kept our spirits up when we throught we would never make any progress. Through everyone\'s help, our goal is in sight and when we reach it we will have the best Christmas gift that we could ever wish for!

We feel that with the auctions and promotions now running and the remaining auctions to go up tonight and tomorrow, that we can complete the remaining 1k. We are very grateful for all the offers of items, but at this point it is likely that we will have raised the funds before they could be put up for auction or would reach the goal before their auction period would be up.

While Alexander may not have actual hearing aids by Christmas (due to the 2 week waiting period for them to be made), we hope to get them fitted and the aids ordered by then. If that is the case, he will be hearing by the first of the year!

Maya~

Got the minis, thanks for the fast shipping! Was the picture included of your son? If so, he is a cute kid!

Greetings to all,

Last night was a milestone in our quest to pay for Alex\'s hearing aids. When all the auctions currently up have been paid for, we will have reached beyond the goal of $5000 we needed. Next week, after all the auctions are ended, we intend to do a final accounting and post on all boards.We know everyone is anxious to see what your efforts have achieved in the past few weeks.

While we have probably passed the final goal when all the people have paid for tonight\'s auctions, we have put up a last batch of auctions of donated items which arrived in the mail today, and those last auctions will end on the day after Christmas. We were told by the people who donated the items to auction that if we reached our goal before their items arrived in the mail, we could just keep them or auction them and keep the money rather than return them. We have no intention of keeping them or the money from the auctions. There are two reasons we are putting them up as a final auction: one, they were donations intended to help Alex; two, although we will have reached our goal, we think the donors would like to see their donations go to good use. After subtracting the cost of Alex\'s hearing aids from the total raised, we intend to \"pay it forward.\" Any money left over after paying for the hearing aids will be donated, in honor of everyone on the boards, to another child in the miniature community whose illness has caused financial hardship on the parents. We estimate that sum should be considerable. It is only fair that we take the money we do not need beyond our original goal and help another child. Also, as soon as the last auction has ended, we will be closing the eBay store and removing all items. They will not be needed again until Alex is ready for his first upgrade in 6 months and that sum is one we can manage by ourselves.

Monday, we will be setting up an appointment for Alex to have impressions made and hopefully he will have hearing aids within the next two weeks. You will never know how grateful we are to the many people on the boards who stepped forward to help, by sending good wishes, donating items for auction, selling their painting services, buying from the eBay store, bidding on the auctions, donating money raised from their own auctions, paying extra for their purchases to donate to Alex, and to those who gave cash donations. We had no idea that it was possible to get this far in a few short weeks. Miracles do happen and Alex will be hearing soon. We will keep everyone informed of Alex\'s progress and also post when everyone has paid and we have reached a final amount. Have a wonderful holiday from our family to yours.

Valloa (Maya), Anatora (Ann) and Alex

[Roger Bunting]

Excellent news on reaching your target.

 

[Wombat85]

It is always good to see that people still do care enough in this day and age. Best wishes for the holiday and the hearing aids

 

[Valloa]

For all of you who helped Alex get his hearing aids, we gratefully send our thanks. We got his set of temperary aids this morning. It took a week for the permanent behind-the-ears part to be made and these temps will help him hear at a low level until his permanent in-the-ear section come in next week. By that time, we hope he has gotten used to wearing them. Already we notice a great difference in his demenor. With them on, he tries out different sound ranges, volume and he said \"Bye-Bye\" clear as a bell today. We were afraid he would freak out at hearing a stranger\'s voice for the first time, but he was fearless. He wants to hear.

For those interested in the accounting for this project, here is the breakdown.

$2606.80 sale of donated items
$ 252.62 in cash donations
+$3523.97 from sales of our items
----------------------
$6383.39 Total
-$288.28 from people who did not pay (one even resigned from eBay to avoid paying).
-$1013.49 Ebay fees and Paypal fees
----------------
$5081.62
-$5000.00 for hearing aids
---------------
81.62 used as part of the $150 paid for temperary in-the-ear aids

We are not counting the overpayments for shipping we made when the packages costs more to send than the buyer\'s paid and refunds which are a part of doing business on eBay.

We had hoped to have money left over to send on to another child, but the eBay and Paypal fees were taken out over the course of the project. At the end, when all auctions were done and the store items removed, all the money had been accounted for.

Again we send everyone our thanks for helping Alex hear.

[Zora]

That is so awesome to hear. Nothing better than being able to communicate with your child.

I\'m so happy for you.:flip:

That is AWESOME news!

So far, this is the best news of the New Year.

I\'m very happy for you all.

This is the best news I\'ve had all Day.

However:-

-$288.28 from people who did not pay (one even resigned from eBay to avoid paying).
Gutless heartless F*cks :flame: Is about the level of contempt I hold for people like that.
