I agree completely, which is why I'm trying to find someone who can get it going sooner than I'll be able to.

If this is sent to iccarus, would it be possible for a time table to be established, so that all those involved have some goals that they could try to meet? I was thinking of something like this.

Does this sound like a reasonable idea? Or am I totally off base?

I have no problem with setting a timetable, but I don't think it's totally necessary. I have every intention of turning these cards around as quickly as possible and getting things moving.

My goal would be to have the sale up within two weeks of getting the cards in hand. I'm honestly hoping it won't even take that long. I'm very much the planner and have already been going over in my head how I'm going to handle the logistics of the sale. Really, it's just a matter of getting the cards in hand at this point.

Also, since nderdog listed just about everything that's come in from people so far, I can even start writing up the sales post before I get the cards.

Once the sale starts, I don't anticipate more than a 3-day period before cards are shipped. I'm not sure on the specifics yet, but what I'll likely do is head to the post office once I have a certain number of orders ready to go or every 3 days, whichever comes first. This should ensure cards go out quickly, especially early on in the sale.

I'm also open to advice from B55 and 'slinga on how they handled aspects of the previous stacks, especially if they have any advice on how to properly offer shipping and all that.

Thanks to everyone who has shown a vote of confidence for me. I'm more than happy to help MOTL in whatever way I can.

As far as I know, yes. nderdog is planning to mail the cards when his vacation concludes.

I now have the cards and have begun the process of sorting everything into piles for pricing. I should have that wrapped up relatively soon, hopefully by Thursday night. After that will be the process of typing/pricing up the sales post.

Those who donated cards to this stack should expect an e-mail about 24 hours in advance of when the sale will be posted. At this point I expect it to be sometime next week, but it really depends on how long it takes to type up the sales list. The auctions for Leshrac and mod-signed cards will go up around the same time as well.

I'll update with more details as needed.

I have Letter Bombs signed by a lot of the mod staff.

The sale is currently held up right now because a chunk of the foil cards were accidentally left out of the shipment nderdog first sent to me. I have no interest in adding cards to the sale halfway through, since it's unfair to those who buy early. nder is supposed to be sending them my way and I'll enter them in the master list ASAP when they arrive.
