No longer taking donations at this time, thanks to everyone who did donate.. Gonna keep this thread for posterity, but it is locked for now!




Hey guys, Here's the official buyout information thread, which will only be for donation reporting.. See the other thread for why the buyout is happening, what is planned for our future , suggestions of things you'd  like to see, etc.

First off,  I wlll start taking Paypal donations at thecj3apage@aol.com....effective today, Sunday 7/1/1.....  Please use the Personal tab on Paypal, and check off "gift" ..Use the form supplied to add a note stating it is a donation to the website, and include both your real name and your screen name here.  It is pretty important to include your screen name so I know who to check off on the list of pledges, and who to put Sponsor member next to their names...

again, the Paypal addy is thecj3apage@aol.com ..

Let me know if you have any problems with the Paypal process, as this is a new account name, and hopefully it all works.


WE also can take money order or personal check donations.It is a bit more work for me, but if you cannot do a Paypal payment,  (they assure me anyone with a checking account or debit card can do it but your experince may vary..) you can use snail mail for this. Actually if you are unable to do the Paypal thing, you may send a check made out to Bill Foshay with a notation at the bottom" 3A page donation" on that line they give you for donations, and your user name as well  somewhere on the check for me. I will deposit them and transfer the money  into the Paypal account we are going to use for the donations and also to pay with. (Please don't send any rubber checks, my bank is really not too understanding of us low dollar types when things bounce...)

THe address to use will be Bill Foshay, 2610 Guadalupe St, Coleman TX 76834. Please do not send  any homeless jeeps or projects to that address, the neighbors are gonna kill me. Plain envelopes full of checks they won't mind.  ....

Here is the list of folks who have either emailed me or PM'ed me with a pledge. Amounts will be kept confidential.

This is in no particular order, just the way I wrote them all down this afternoon sifting thru emails and PM's... If I missed you, go ahead and let me know thru email preferably....I opened up a new aol account ( I know, AOL is a dinosaur..) at thecj3apage@aol.com to handle 3A page business.  Might as well start using it.

Again, If I somehow missed you in this list of those who PM'ed or emailed me, shoot me an email at thecj3apage@aol.com  and I will add you to the list of pledges.....

I have not gone thru the buyout thread and listed all those from that thread who were willing to help but did not send me an email as I had requested. I will be doing that next, and updating this post with those names too.

OK, here's the folks who said they would be glad to help out  on the buyout thread.. Pretty large list, but by and large I have no pledged amount from these guys for various reasons.

Some may be in the above list also because I didn't look up user names when I was emailed .....no biggie,just let me know...

Again, no particular order here...

Roughly 30 people between the two lists... IF everyone wants to split the costs evenly, it would work out to about $50 apiece or a little less. I know I had a few people who were able to commit to a smaller amount than $50, so I can't just tell everyone to donate $50.. Just donate what you can, what you'd like to, and iit will probably work out well. If we don't get enough $$ I will ask One or two more times and then if we still don't get enough, I will return the donations received to date... but I really don't expect that to happen.


Thanks for wading thru all this. I think I need someone to edit my posts...

EDITED 7/1/12 with final payment instructions..

Thanks, Dez, I figured it was you...lol.

Paypal is definitely easier for me to keep track of.  I will let everyone know what email to send a personal payment/donation to in a day or two. Thanks!

Edited the first post to include the Paypal Address.  Please use the Personal tab on Paypal, and check off "gift" ..Use teh form supplied to add a note stating it is a donation to the website, and include both your real name and your screen name here.  It is pretty important to include your screen name so I know who to check off on the list of pledges, and who to put Sponsor member next to their names...

again, the Paypal addy is thecj3apage@aol.com ..

Let me know if you have any problems with the Paypal process, as this is a new account name, and hopefully it all works.
