I am going to be riding my bicycle in the April Houston to Austin bike ride to benifit the national MS society and my fund raising posibilities are limited. However I do have some cool hot rod books, posters, and a few parts that I don't have much use for, like the Rod & Custom book, Rodders Journal Posters, old Caddy hub caps, etc that I would like to put up for auction to help raise some donations.

So that I don't break any rules, can I post such an action to the hamb? And where should I put it? A sticky would be great. A week long auction ending Sunday night at 12 would be great, I could pay shipping(in US, or first 10 bucks anywhere else). Payment could be made via credit or debit card straight to the National MS Society via the link in my sig, or they could send me a check/Money order made out to the National MS Society. My employeer doubles all my donations so this could really make a big difference.

So how about it, what's the best way to do this and not make a moderator mad at me?

Tell me how much you want for the stuff if you want to trade it. I own a bicycle shop in Austin and would consider swaping you for some merch if you need some support. We support the MS150 every year. Good for you for helping the cause!
PM me if interested

Hey John,
Just hunting some donations. I can afford the bike parts, thats not a problem. I'll probably be in to the shop in the next week or so hunting for a riser handle bar stem. Need some hundred and eight mile shorts and seat also. Ever get the Caddy back on the road? What are the plans for the Round Up?

Paul,
So who is the boss?
