YDC 124 Announcement Thread NAWT Thurrock 24th - 28th August 2014
Well, it's that time again folks!
YDC 124 Begins on 24th August 2014!
As the winner of YDC 123,
emmily121
has chosen
NAWT - Thurrock
as this month's nominated charity.
Everyone is welcome to join in and list for this fabulous good cause
YDC (Your Donation Counts) is the monthly round of charity auctions on eBid.net.
YDC has two aspects, the general fund-raising for good causes, and the competitive aspect where those who choose to can compete to win the right to select the next month's nominated charity.
The rules, therefore, also have two parts: the first part applies to all auctions which are to be part of YDC; the second part applies ONLY to those auctions which are to be considered part of the competition,
If joining in with the YDC monthly charity auctions you MUST follow the rules in part one. If you would like to be in with a chance of winning the competition, you are REQUIRED to also follow the rules in part two. If you do not wish to choose, you can ignore part 2, though you may find it still contains some useful ideas that are convenient to follow.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Part one: Rules for All.
1. Auctions must run from the 24th to the 28th of the month.
2. Auctions must be listed in the Your Donation Counts sub-category of the Charity Auctions category.
3. Your items must be listed on eBid.net and must comply with all eBid's listing rules.
4. Your auction(s) must be for a charity or good cause.
5. YDC nnn (the number of the current YDC) must be included in the auction title.
You can list as many items as you wish. You do not have to support the nominated charity, you are free to choose any cause you wish. If you would like to support the nominated charity, that's great. Please try to offer your auctions to as many international destinations as possible, for maximum YDC visibility.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Part two: Rules for the competition.
1. Auctions should have a start price of 99p or less. (or local equivalent.) The website xe.com is a good place to check currency exchanges.
2. No item should have an expected value of more than £20.00 (or local equivalent). Higher value items are still welcome in YDC but should not be considered competition entries.
3. No reserve or Buy Now price should be used, nor should any listing enhancements such as Featured.
4. Please make sure your end time on the 28th matches your start time on the 24th, so that your auction only runs for exactly four days - no extending from very early on the 24th to late on the 28th, please.
5. YDC nnn (the number of the current YDC) must be included in the title, preferably as shown with a space between the letters and the numbers.
6. Naturally, your items must be listed on eBid.net and must comply with all eBid's listing rules.
7. Your auction(s) must be for a charity or good cause and the description of your item must include the following text:
This auction is an entry in the YDC nn charity auction competition. All money raised by this auction will go to: charity.
8. Please do not charge more than cost price for shipping / postage.

Great kids card games Ash, is the MAKE UP clue about making up after the arguing about the card games...just teasing, I think I can work out that clue :) good to see you joining in this month :cool: hope all's going well with all your selling outlets.

I have listed a couple for NAWT, one for the red cross and the rest for the Laurencekirk Thursday group (LTG).
The Laurencekirk Thursday Group provides a safe environment for people with severe mental health issues to get together and chat. For some this is the only time in a week they have interactions with others outside the home. The money raised provides transport in a very rural area to get folk to and from the group. This group is a lifeline to around 20 people from an area that stretches 20 miles wide. My auctions are their only fundraising outside the group.
