[announce] 2nd Saturday Sale Info

["Jonathan Hall" <jonhall@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

At the July 2nd Saturday Sale, ACLUG plans to operate a table for the
purpose of allowing members to sell their computer-related goods.  Anyone
interested in selling their items, please read below!  Anyone interested in
buying things from the ACLUG table, please come to the sale on July 13.

Any questions not answered here can be addressed to me at
jonhall@xxxxxxxxxxxx.  Hopefully I've covered most of it here.

Cost:  ACLUG will charge $10 per member, plus 10% of the sale price on all
items sold.  This will cover our operational expenses.  If any profits are
made, they will go to the ACLUG general fund.

Accepted items: Any _working_ computer hardware, _legal_ computer software
(either opensource, or with complete license/documentation, etc), or books.
Non-Linux books/software are fine, so long as they're legal.

Deadline: Anyone wishing to participate must reply to this e-mail and pay
the $10 table fee by Saturday, July 6.

Payment: The $10 payment may be made by PayPal, by U.S. Mail, or you can
drop payment off.  Please e-mail for more details.

Misc info: We will be accepting credit card (Visa and MasterCard) payments,
checks, and cash.  We will be charging sales tax on all sales.

You will be responsible for bringing your items to the sale on Saturday,
July 13, between 8:00 and 8:45am.  You will also be responsible to pick up
any unsold items after the sale (which ends at 3:00).  Any items unclaimed
after the sale will become property of ACLUG unless prior arrangements have
been made.

To participate, reply to this e-mail with the following information.  Be
sure to include an adaquate description of the items you are selling,
including its condition (new, working, untested, dirty, etc), the quantity
available, the minimum price you are willing to take for the item, as well
as an asking (or sticker) price.  Please note that 10% will be taken out
_AFTER_ the sale.  So if you want $5.00 for an item, your minimum price
should not be less than $5.56, because the $0.56 will go to ACLUG.

BE SURE TO TEST ANY HARDWARE BEFORE SELLING IT!  We will _not_ be selling
broken/dead/untested/semi-working hardware.

All items you're selling must have a securely fastened price tag with your
initials and the asking price on it prior to the start of the sale.

We will review the lists of all hardware for sale before the sale, and let
you know which hardware to actually bring.  This is to prevent large numbers
of duplicate items from multiple people, as well as to give priority to
items which are most likely to sell.

If anyone's list of list is rejected for any reason (perhaps b/c of an
enormous response?), their $10 fee will be returned.

Anyone who responds with a list of hardware for sale by July 6 should
receive a reply from us by Thursday, July 11, to let them know which  items
to bring to the sale.
