ive got an ebay name, ill freaking outbid it if you want.

>>i personally think that we should have both auctions
>>going on at once. it wont be confusing because
>>NEITHER groups will know the other exists. people
>>bidding on ebay won't know about the auction we're
>>having at the event, and people bidding at our event
>>won't know about the one on ebay. it's pretty simple
>>if you don't Let it get confusing. i mean, writing it
>>all out makes it sound more confusing, right?
>>
>>so here's what we'd do:
>>we'd put up the ebay auctions a few days before the
>>event. (they would be scheduled to end on the same
>>day as the event or a couple days later.)
>>during the event, we want everyone to bid throughout
>>the night, which means, if it's 11:00 PM and there are
>>still five people left, and they want to bid, we
>>ENCOURAGE them to do so, so we can get the max out of
>>everyone. we tell them that we will be calling the
>>winners within the next couple days to let them know
>>they won. we don't mention that we're doing this on
>>ebay.
>>if the event "winners" have been outbid by the ebay
>>bidders, then we just don't call them.
>>if the ebay "winners" have been outbid by the event
>>bidders, then we just personally outbid the ebay
>>"winners". it's not like we haven't done that before.
>>:P

>>i know it sounds ultra-confusing, but it's really
>>not... and i think it utilizes the items to their full
>>extent, and in the end, RAINN will be getting more
>>money out of it. because you know some of those
>>items, like the Henry Rollins book and 3eb CD, will
>>sell for a lot more on ebay, considering only 200 -
>>300 people will be looking at it at the event (two of
>>which may actually give a damn), but millions of
>>people may look at it on ebay. :PP but the gift
>>basket stuff (the ones not going towards the raffle)..
>>people on ebay probably wont care AS Much. but who
>>knows!
>>
>>it works, i swear to god. :P
