IF YOU ARE HAVING A FUNDRAISER FOR LLMD DEFENSE FUNDS PLEASE SEND ME THE INFO and I will include it on this page. Bookmark the page to keep current with fundraising efforts for LLMDs!
** This is a way, hopefully, people can donate to Dr. Jones' defense without hardship**
I have gotten a few donations for the eBay fundraiser and have gotten 17 items listed this week. This weeks items are donated by Alison, Paula, Sue Vogan, Rita Stanley, Marie and Theresa! Thanks very much for your donations!
What is a Trading Assistant? Trading Assistants are experienced eBay sellers who will sell your items for you on eBay for a fee. By hiring a Trading Assistant, you can take advantage of their selling expertise, save time and effort, and still reap the rewards of selling your item on eBay.

In the box "I need help selling" do NOT choose "Charity Events" ________________________________________________________________________________ Ebay auction update! We have 17 items for sale this week! Check them out: http://search.ebay.com/_W0QQsassZllmd_fundraiserQQhtZ-1
Or go to www.ebay.com and put llmd in the search box.
Several people have offered me boxes of goods for me to photograph, describe, list and ship. Thanks very much! The problem is I don't have the time to do all the steps myself. Just listing the auctions and communicating with donors is eating many hours of my week.
There is a service on ebay where you can hire someone to do all the work for you for a fee. They will even PICK UP the items to be sold! If you have items to donate but feel you can't send a photo, description and ship out the item(s) please consider hiring a "Trading Assistant" and donating the profits of your sales to Dr. Jones' defense fund. The fees are deducted from your sale total, not paid upfront.
The info is above. All you have to do is choose an assistant and make arrangements for pick up or delivery.
There will be NEW items starting EVERY Sunday.
PLEASE look around for a few items we can sell on eBay to raise funds for Dr. Jones' defense. Please. Details below this message.
Ebay auction FUNDRAISER for Dr. Jones defense fund- I hope everyone has been looking around for things we can list on Ebay!
If you have anything that would be good for an Ebay auction I will need a few things from you so I can create a listing:
1. A GOOD photo. (or UPC code for movies and CDs!)Good photos make all the difference in how much an item sells for on Ebay. If you can send me a . jpg or .tif file that is great! Most digital photos are saved as a .jpg file. You need to forward me your photos. [email protected] If you CAN'T send a digital image, you can snail mail me a regular image and I will scan it. Email me for my address, [email protected]
2. A description of the item. People on Ebay like stories, if there is one, associated with your item(s). Even something like, I have a closet full of these and hate to part with this one but if I don't start getting rid...etc. Please MEASURE and if appropriate WEIGH every item. If it is a piece of designer clothing give label size, measurements, fabric and laundering care.
3. You need to be WILLING and ABLE to ship your item United States Postal Service PRIORITY shipping to the winner within 2 days of the auction end. I will send shipping info as soon as I get it. If the buyer pays on Sunday you need to ship NO LATER than Tuesday. I will list all auctions to begin and end on Sundays as that is the best time for selling on Ebay. If out of pocket shipping costs are a hardship, I will send you the shipping fees we collect with the auction. In other words, this can be done at no expense to you OR you can pay the shipping costs out of pocket as an added donation for the fund. ** I am hoping to make this a way people can donate without hardship** so PLEASE, if shipping fees are a hardship let me know. [email protected] Pick up FREE boxes at your local post office OR order priority mailing boxes for FREE from the post office: go to: http://www.usps.com/ Choose "buy stamps and shop" in a white box under the red stripe. Choose "for mailing and shipping" blue box, top right Choose "priority mail" 3rd row of gray boxes, 1st on the left Choose page "2" Choose "priority mail box 0-10965" In drop down box "select format" Choose number you want shipped, for free Choose the yellow "buy" button Finish the forms. They will ship them to you for no charge!
4. If the buyer pays with Paypal the cost for the Ebay listing fees and the Paypal percentage ends up costing about 20% of the final sale price. In other words, if your item sells for $10.00 the net value to the Dr. Jones fund will be $8.00. If you donate the shipping, it will, of course, increase the donation.
When I get paid I will transfer the money from my Paypal account to Dr. Jones' defense fund account.
