JAP PAY BACK

I'm selling alot of my TFs as I need the money, but I feel it's only right to put at least one auction dedicated to raisinf money for Japan, I urge others to do the same. If I can I'll use this thread to promote the auction. I know you can donate through ebay, but I need to check if you can choose the charity. I'm not entirely happy with that route as ebay/paypal like to grab as much as they can, so I was wondering if people have any suggestions. I don't expect people to pay me and trust that I will give to the cuase. Does anyone know of any paypal scheme where I can get the buyer to pay the charity through paypal but I somehow get notified that the transaction has gone through so I can mail the trnasformer.

I wonder if any of the transformers I have imported from Japan came from homes that are now gone due to the earth quake / tsunami. We have no idea what they must be going through and yes we all have moments in our life of dispair, but to know that for miles around you there is little hope, they maybe alive, but that is little comfort when everything they once knew is wiped away. And how can they begin to help when the infrastructure is obliterated, there must be people alive still trapped and have no chance of help due to the shear scale of the situation.

I urge everyone to do what they can no matter how small. ANd any advice on how to do so would be much appreciated.
