Hey guys,

I don't know if anyone is keeping up with the ebay auctions, but I thought this was so great that I would start a new thread! Kitfoxer donated a kit whose proceeds will benefit the TV advertising campaign. This donated item sold for a lot more than we ever expected.

Check out the thread at for links to the original auctions http://www.watchfarscape.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=15516

$325!!! :eek4:

Congratulations to Kitfoxer for putting up such an unexpectedly valuable item for auction! I believe the total of $325 for the two kits will bring in over 2% of the total needed for phase one of the tv fund. I know it was hard for her to give up these kits, so everyone should give her a round of applause!!! :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap:

:signbravo

More auctions to come folks, so everyone check your closets. You never know what treasures you will find. Kitfoxer and I were hoping we might get a good $40 or more with these kits, so it was a pleasant surprise (actually jaw-dropping surprise) to get $325!

Awesome, KF and Huh! BTW, Huh, do you have an idea of the total raised by all the auctions you've run so far?

Hi SabaceanBabe,

Thanks should all go to Huh for hosting these auctions! I was too chicken to auction this stuff myself. Nothing would have happened without her initiative. I hope more Scapers can find goodies in their closets/attics/garages for the cause. You never know what others might think they are worth...

follow the link above and you will find the links to the ebay auctions.

The item that sold for $305 was a anime model kit for a ship based upon Captain Harlock/Arcadia.

I have no idea what it was all about, but apparently Kitfoxer had a valuable one. I think some colors are rare for these kits. But I know little about anime!

Right on!! My shippy wall hanging garnered $150. a few months back......I hope when the Farscape inspired quilt is finished that it scores this kind of cash!!!!
