    There are better ways to give back than buying merch and flipping it at twice the price.

    Sure. I could sell it for $35 each plus 4 hours of my time in line. That would be more than what I'm asking.

    This allows me to offer it here, give the money (and time) I spent, and money made to non-profits. I guess I should have been prepared for the bummer replies.

    Wow! Maybe the OP is just trying to break even given that he donated some of this merch..........I'd love the Schuss, but don't have the funds right now due to unexpected family expenses! Good luck with your sale, OP!

    Thanks for all the kind replies and PM's.

    To answer a few questions...

    I'm paying for shipping (within the states). If you're overseas, we can work something out.
    Engeye is a non-profit based out of Portland, that provides medical services, clinics, and education here & in Uganda.
    Yes, these were purchased in Chicago and are not artist editions.
    I prefer to keep the Shuss or Emek, but will take what I'm left with. Hopefully, it's one of those two.

    Even if this sale wasn't to benefit good causes.....why is it so hard for people to realize that once items are sold out from all the different places they were available (at the show, artists sales, 10C shop), the original retail price no longer exists. If you don't like it, don't buy it.

    Does anybody have a PJ20 Ames or Klausen to sell for $35? ;)

    I'm not trying to start a debate, and will glady pull the post.

    I'm donating over $150 of merch (face value) and paying for shipping, in order to help some people, who help all of us in one way or another. I'm not trying to compete with 10C or the artists. I'll even accept face value if the remainder is sent onto the non-profit first.

    wow, thank you JMo...your heart is bigger than all of our love for this band and each other combined.

    For the debate- I simply ask what's the difference of this and when Pearl Jam puts up a poster or item to help raise funds? The idea is to use something to give back to others in need. Don't want it at the price? Don't buy it. I would have died for a used EV guitar string bracelet which helps benefit a non-profit from another thread but I didn't want to spend $125. So guess what? I said Kudos to the band and the people who made it happen and who offered people a great product for a great cause. I didn't buy it though. Ok rant done.

    JMo- again thank you for all that you give and nothing you take

    People are just angry they don't have this stuff.

    In the end they only care about what you are doing because they are unhappy with themselves.

    Ignore the haters... Haters gonna hate.

    Sell your stuff as you see fit, the rhetoric is pointless.

    Thanks everyone!

    Lots of PM's. However, a couple posters and shirts left. If it's pending, I haven't heard back from the original person interested. Making a post office run in the morning!
  • JMoJMo Posts: 1,071
    I updated the first post with what is currently available.

    Great quote and bump for two great people and members of this community. Sad to see people on this board are actually so immature that they bring negative energy to a positive cause.

    THANK YOU
