To all who have pledged and sent-in a donation via this thread!

$ 190 ($150 + $40) HAS BEEN SENT TO CRAIG ON BEHALF OF ALL YOU NICE PEOPLE! GREAT JOB EVERYONE!

yes! poppage has started, so pleeeeeeze begin to send me your Pledges. $190.00 was raised so far, because of your pledges here, thanks! (PLEEEEZE NOTE: Any other gumbyfan group submission participant that would like to pledge 'a little something' to gumbyfan for his great job with this sub, feel free to post your pledge on this thread, and then you can then send it to an addy below, thanks!)

1. you can Paypal me: addy: rbdjr@ymail.com (make sure to include your CU id, so I can give you credit for your pledge/payment). Also pleeeeeze LMK that you paid, so I can mark it paid below on the list, thanks!


2. or you can send me your pledge: addy: The Renaissance Trust, P.O. Box 6059 Delray Beach, FL 33482-6059 (make sure to include your CU id, so I can give you credit for your pledge/payment). Also pleeeeeze LMK that you paid, so I can mark it paid below on the list, thanks!

I will try to PM all who have pledged a contribution periodically to remind you to pay! Thanks!


*** update: again, participants have kicked-in $190.00 here so far! And there is still plenty of time for other 'gumby group rip' participants to contribute 'a little something' too!



gameusedhoop (Steve) gave me a wonderful idea to reward an organizer of a "group submission", especially a large group sub, like gumbyfan's, with a surcharge of some sorts, to compensate him for all his efforts, labor and time it takes to "pull-off" a successful group sub. I decided to start this thread.

So here we go:

Craig (gumbyfan) has demonstrated so far, by his receiving, bookkeeping, listing, packing, shipping, submitting, continuous communication with participants, and then to come, receiving 1500 items back from PSA, breaking up items to match each participants' items, packing, labeling, transport to the post office, and more! Yikes!

What we can all do is say thanks gumby!

But that's not all we can do! So here's what I propose:

Each 'group sub' participant kicks-in, let's say a whopping 20 cents per item! Showing Craig all our appreciation and gratitude for his performance and his efforts related to his group rip!

For example, ...my sub part was 66 items, so I'd be more than happy to start-off by kicking-in $13.20 (66 subs x $0.20 = $13.20).

Heck, I rounded-up to $ 15.00

This is strictly voluntary, and in no way will I (nor should anybody else for that matter!) single out any group participant for not kicking-in a little for gumbyfan's wonderful effort here!

And who knows? Maybe, we can get Craig to "quarterback" another group rip for our community?


So, I'm making a list for any participant who wants to contribute something (for Craig). I know it's not much, but maybe if each participant contributes a little something? It will be a nice way for all of us to show gumbyfan, in some small way, just how much we all do appreciate his wonderful "group submission" efforts:

"Stay tuned"!

edit: By the time poppage begins, we can have my "group kick-in contribution thing" on the road to completion!

Or if you already sent Craig 'a little something', on your own, LMK so I can give you "some love here" for being such a nice guy! (I'll put you on the above list, even if you gave, or you are giving a little something to Craig on your own!)

P.S. Craig, I'm still looking to 'carve out' a nice '86T Paul Molitor &/or Robin Yount for you! (Ok! I'll look for a nice 86T Jim Gantner upgrade too!)

Talk about a "group" sub, I teamed up with fellow board member Pokerbot for a 45 card sub. That way my tight a$$ could really save money.

Anyway, I looked around for some cards I thought craig would like but couldn't find any.

Rob and I sent him $10 with our cards and told him to get a couple graded on us.

I agree it is taking A LOT of effort to put this together, so we thanked him previously.

Robert, great gesture.
While I already planned on hooking Craig up when this is all said and done,
it'll have to wait. Right now, I have $3.87 in my paypal acct which is pathetic.
I had to sell a bunch of psa 10 rookies to generate funds for my 75 card sub.

You can mark me down as "pending".
I really appreciate what Craig has done and his efforts will get rewarded.

I don't recall anyone taking up donations for me. Craig is an a&&hole and I will apologize for that statement tomorrow. I think I may have had one (or 6) too many at my fantasy baseball draft tonight.
