Well, the ball is rolling and by Friday at the latest the website will be done and ready for bids!! I have to take a moment to say thanks again to Melissa who has just done such an incredible job in putting this site together in no time! I answered her email and she already had a basic layout done!! I also need to thank Sam who is donating quite a few items for the auctions, thanks again, your generosity has been so over and beyond!! I will post the site address in tomorrow's FML so everyone starts looking at the same time!! We will have a minimum of 12 items for auction (I have more, but need to get some pics done). The auctions will be 'silent' - meaning you simply bid the highest amount you are willing to pay and high bid wins! Each item will have a bid form and you simply fill out the info and it is emailed to an account specifically for the auctions. The emails will NOT be read until the end of auction and the high bidder announced! The auction website will be posted here, KiSta's and the Ferret Store's Board. The silent auctions allow everyone to bid without signing up or registering for anything and with NO FEES!!! FYI to everyone, ebay charges a listing fee as well as taking a percentage of the selling price. Again, no overhead will be taken out, all monies go directly to help the ferrets. Items that will be posted by Friday include: 2 pc flannel/fur bedding set Teddy faces print hammock Hanging playtube Fleece tent Pewter ferret earrings Pewter ferret pin 2001 ferret calendar Handstamped ferret candles Handmade ferret costumes (really cute!) Handstamped ferret treat can Ferret cuddle bed Other upcoming items include more bedding, handquilted wallhanging (non ferret), Valentine Day Furby (limited edition collectible), Hallmark Keepsake Snowman ornament, Santa ferret beanies, ferret toys, handstamped ferret Valentine Day cards and more!!! We will try to have something for every budget! Thanks and hug your babies from all of us at KiSta. Jen [Posted in FML issue 3280]
