Rubbish. Its theirs and they can do as they wish with it. The charity has had the money.

RA Dunk

but they should still be shot none the less

solosteve

Have to agree with this comment. Different perhaps if someone bought multiple copies solely to re-sell



Edited to say that it shouldnt be on offer competing with the charity auction. Thought they were all sold??

MCRAE GATHERING PRINT 314/555
Limited Edition Mosaic Print

Above also on Ebay - being sold by the McRae Gathering Team.

Thought they had sold all theirs after the frantic bidding the other night?

RA Dunk

lol nice one, hopefully it will kill the price of the one being sold for profit!!

Excellent Job!

I still have a handful of Limited Prints left.

I got 553, I know I keep saying it but I am sooooo happy.

These prints are getting more common than swisstony's jokes!

Even if the vendor had bought five to sell, thered be nothing wrong with that, as distasteful as it would be.. Teh charity has had the money that it wanted; after that it became a collectable item...

Not being funny here and i now that its all in aid of a great driver but when these mosaic ltd number of prints came out i knew a few were being held back to be signed and what haveyeh but it seems to have been turned into a money making thing just seen the number 314 go up on ebay by the mcrae gathering team itself .. WHY WERENT THESE SOLD TO GENUINE enthusiast who wanted one from the begining at the original cost and the final 5 kept back for signing as originally planned ,,, there is a lot of mcrae enthusiast out there that missed out. but yet these prints keep popping up i bought one at begining i also bid and won the large A5 signed print and the signed sticker which i paid a large amount for ... but i genuinly feel sorry the ones who missed out at the begining

Define genuine enthuasists please? people from here? people who went on the convoy? people who bought the actual prints? werent these the people who bought them?

I honestly thought everybody who bought one to begin with were genuine enthuasists but after seeing how many of them appeared on Fleabay as soon as some folk clicked onto the fact there was a few bob to be made off of them i have changed my mind about just how many people who follow subaru are enthuasists and how many are penny pinching cowboys!

YATESY

yes mate thats exactley what i meant sorry ,,, we went on the weekend and bought the sticker and loved the weekend but now people see the ones on ebay and think HEY THATS BROUGHT A BIT WE CAN MAKE MORE MONEY HERE

RA Dunk

yup some say its ok to sell straight away and make money off of a charitable event, what sort of enthusiast does that anyway, me im against it, these should be held onto considering what they mean, but that means nothing to some

YATESY

HERE HERE MATE

solosteve

now ive seen the print 314 go up.
i say good luck to her..
the charity is ripping us off as-well, by selling a product
@ more then 40 pounds..
will they give me the diffrence, in what i paid for mine...

RA Dunk

its a charity raising money for charity? off course they will try and make as much off of it as possible, thats the whole idea of it all is it not?

Of the hundreds sold so far theres only been a few complaints that im aware off and IMO thats pretty impressive figures, off course some will moan about this and that but hey you cant please all of the people all of the time

scoobychick555

let me get this right...

you think that the Gathering organisers are ripping you off by auctioning a Print to give more money for the charity that we're working towards?

and that you want us to give you money to buy back the print that you bought off us in the first place??

wouldnt that mean that you are ripping us off?

imy

solosteve

im not into biting, just sell me your one for 40 notes..
il pick up also..

RA Dunk

whats wrong with the one you bought for 40 notes lol, its the same print?

Brun

Can't believe all this moaning about someone's property. Wish i had one to sell because i would sure as dammit do what the hell i want with it.....

solosteve

why not just sell them @ 40 pounds to people on here..???

you are doing the same as her,and making money out of some-thing that cost forty pounds...charity or not..
even if she gave you forty pounds, for the print..your all moan.


how many are left to sell.....???
as i want one for forty pounds please, and il give this to you, and charity
now...

solosteve

come on homer...
your number is better...

We put 500 in the shop and they sold out in 36 hours

We held back 2 - 6 and 550 - 555 from the very begining as we knew these would be more desirable if we got them signed by some relevant people

That left us with 500 orders to process in double quick time. Working evry spare minute and then some we got about 450 out the door in the alloted time and put the rest of the stock on the back burner, not literally as that would be silly. The fate of the remaining unallocated ones would b dcided at a later date once we have fulfilled all the existing orders

Once we had cleared everyting that was outstanding we used some to send to the companies that supported us like Roger Clark, Autosportiff, PowerSupply and Litchfields, we even gave one to Thames Valley and Warks Police as a thanks for tier valued assistance on the day.

Sven mysteriously appeared as stock in our shop and we fulfilled they orders at the original stock price and that has left us with some left over.

What happens with the remaining stock will be decided at a later date and if we decide to list them on Ebay then it is a decision i will stand by.

Sitting at just over £53000 raised i will do whatever i can to maximise that short of selling my ar$e, i am considering selling a kidney but no way am i doing the bum thing, not even for charity

Hope this explains everything rearding the prints

Thanks

Grant

RA Dunk

why so the people on here can go onto ebay and sell them again for profit? at least any extra thats made from ebay is going to the charity and not into some supposed enthusiasts pocket

McRaeGathering

We do fear that if we were to put the rest on general release then at the original £40 there would be a significant proportion that would appear by magic on Ebay.

We are down to single figures on remaining stock and as i mentioned before thier fate is as yet not decided.

The A1 poster on the other hand which contains the overhead shot is available to buy in our shop and quantity is not an issue. Priced at £20 plus P+P and of this 100% goes to the charity. These are selling well and the feedback we are getting suggests that its content and design is spot on

Thanks

Grant

YATESY

IF YOU ASK ME THEY SHOULD HAVE ALL BEEN SOLD AT £40 APART FROM THE 5 ORIGINALLY STATED WHICH WERE SUGNED

AND ITHINK THATS WHY PEOPLES GOT THEIR BACKS UP

CHARITY OR NO CHARITY
TRUE MCRAE ENTHUSIASTS THATS WHAT I SAY ITS NOT MONEY ITS THE MEMORABELIA

RA Dunk

Hence why im 100% fully in support of what your doing, I would rather the extra money from Ebay went to the correct charity than into some fleabags back pocket for their next Mcdonalds!
