Katrina Charity Auction - now what?
 

We bid, we won, we paid- that was a month ago, now what?

I haven't heard myself, and someone won my donation. I'd really like to pay up. :)

I've tried ICQ'ing Pete but he doesn't respond... hmmm :)

Hurricane Wilma Auction.

Maybe the $71k went to Hurricane Porsche...

Same here

Your in my buddy list and I have never recieved a icq from you, Ill contact you tomo and get you in touch with the people you won an item from. Sorry about the confusion

try email usually works better then icq.

goto the listings and find out who listed the item and contact them directly, it worked for me

We auctioned off 1 paysite design and 100 banners.

We have sched. in the company for the paysite design but haven't heard from the winner of the 100 Animated Banners. I guess I will try and find out there info.

you need to contact me on icq or email and once the payment is verified they are notified and then you can notify them, my icq is 295458749 and my email is [email protected]

Pete hit me up when they got payment ... we are doing a site design for the winner now ...

I do think Ally is owed a Mobbucks jersey ... Pete let me know about that when we talk tomorrow .. :)

Oh, that thing upsets me man. :(

I highly doubt that since 95% of the money collected has been through company checks MADE OUT to RED CROSS OF AMERICA and then all put into an envelope along with the money collected by online methods and sent in to Red Cross. People that know me, know that i would never take charity money and spend it on myself thats just selfish and stupid. If you won an item and Havnt been contacted PLEASE hit me up on icq at 295458749 or email me at [email protected]

Red Cross took their time cashing the checks. But we got a letter from the Red Cross yesterday thanking us for our donation. :thumbsup

I just hope the money actually goes to the people who need it, and fast.

By the way....

:thumbsup :thumbsup

2 thumbs up for Pete, and everyone else who helped out and contributed to this auction.

We sent our check out right away, and contacted everyone we bought items from, right away. Went as smooth as it should have.

By the way Pete, again, thanks for the time and effort you put into this and good luck with your new program. I was told never to trust Satan :1orglaugh but on this case, i will make an exception, just becuase of the good things you did for Katrina relief.

Ya know whats fucked up though? All these mainstream businesses that donated money for nothing more then a publicity stunt.

Not to mention these "faith based" groups. I read somewhere, cant recall where, that many of these "faith based" groups, are going to be paid back by the government for their "donations". Shit like that makes me want to throw up.

:2 cents:

Wish I was so lucky - Pete's been great, but I've been chasing one company (a BIG one) that donated an item (a relatively expensive one) that I bought for six weeks now - got one return email from them in early November, and then nothing further - they're not answering my emails and today ignored my ICQs.
I'm giving them until next week, then will see if Pete can help, and then will have to go public, I guess...even though that's not my style.

Wow, that sucks. Was'nt hard to figure out who it was. Hope it all works out for you.

Thanks. I wouldn't think it would be hard...but I guess sometimes things are.

Pete, is it going to be checks only and no Epassporte?

Don't wait till next week, hit me up on icq and I will help you, you won the item you deserver to have it. And ya took them FOREVER to cash the checks Vrock I will contact you on icq

The Red Cross gave $380 to eligible persons a few weeks after the storm. Currently they are giving out a box of dry goods but only to the households that registered/qualified for the first assistance. They only registered so many people per day, I know several people who waited in line but never got registered and elderly who couldn't wait in line but they wouldn't let someone else take care of it for them:(
