I agree. If Mr Beans wants to donate to a cause, maybe he should take the $100K out of HIS pocket. This whole thing stinks, and I think you have a LONG uphill battle to dig yourself out of this hole.

Please don't try and pass this off as a "good hearted intentiont." If you had even mentioned that Fred Beans was trying to raise money for a daycare I am sure many would DONATE money instead of bidding. In such a case you would raise more then the required money without selling a thing.

Nice try, but you're not fooling anyone Gene.
