[NJARC] Auctions

[donald ball]

Hi All,

Perhaps we could consider taking Rob's suggestions to another level.  
IF  the Club wishes to get
a NJ Sales Tax License and IF the Club has volunteers who will LIST  on  
Ebay  and PACK  and 
SHIP  items from the Club Member Only auctions which are not bought by 
Club Members,  then,
the Club might be able to develop two streams of revenue.  We know that 
in the near future the Club
will be responsible for certain lighting, heating and maintenance 
charges, perhaps the auctions
could/would  reduce our out of  pocket  expenditures .

I'd like to echo Rob's remarks about remaining cool and friendly about 
our hobby, and auctions
and meeting places.

Thanks,  Don
