I think it would be neat to have GS Resource T-shirts available with some portion of the cost going to support the site. This would be another source of funds in addition to donations.I bet many members would eat this up.
Any thoughts?

I find it strange that Frank doesn't have a Paypal acc't.
Seems everyone else on the internet does.

Why have money go to another party, then be forwarded to you ??

PayPal is indecently convenient, but it can also turn into a nightmare overnight that will cost you thousands with absolutely no recourse. Although they provide financial services, PayPal is (by careful design) legally not a bank, and is thus not subject to the protections banking laws give consumers. Their Terms of Service is a truly frightening document. They count on most people never bothering to read it.

Frank has elected not to risk becoming entangled with PayPal, which is a choice I can fully respect.

I have a PayPal account that I use regularly, but I have also taken steps to protect myself. No matter what, PayPal cannot access more than a small amount of my money, and I never keep much of a balance in my PayPal account. I've never had a problem.

The vast majority of the time, PayPal works beautifully. But if something goes wrong, it's a nightmare. The PayPal TOS allows them to take all the money in your account AND all the money they can access in linked accounts and cards whenever they wish and for whatever reasons they wish, and you are not allowed to appeal or to even learn of their reasons -- PayPal's decisions are final. Learn more here: http://paypalsucks.com

PayPal is great, until they're not. If you're going to use PayPal, just make sure that you understand the risks and you've protected yourself.



Anyway, I sent Frank a check several months ago, but it got lost in the mail (Frank confirmed that he never received it). Thanks for the kick in the rear, BC -- another check is on the way to Georgia!

Thanks for the reminder Brian. Just transferred most of my Paypal balance over to the bank. Better safe than sorry.

Donation sent last month

Hello!

How can I tell if my donation was received? I never got any type of confirmation - it was sent last month IIRC.

Thanks,

+2 on all that. A well designed t-shirt and decal would be great.

Frank and Dan and I are being very thankful for donations that are having been made to the site, as well as to those that have been contributing their time and acting as conduits for those who are preferring to use alternate methods of payment!

This site would not be being what it is without you all, and I am not just talking about monetary contributions. Some people are contributing to success of this site through monies, whereas others are contributing through technical expertise on the site and in some cases, even personally visiting members (old and new) with problems to help them get their bikes up and running. And others are helping/contributing in ways that are not being so obvious.

My hat is being off to all of you and thanking you all for your help and support. In great appreciation, I, we all, thank you and salute you!

Now, where am I having laid down my hat?

I LIKE the T shirt idea! Maybe one that had a certain profit to go to the Gs Resources site? That way we all win! Who can come up with the best idea for one?
