donating hard to find serato vinyl is as good as cash,
plus it will bring awareness to the cause, and this is what Serato held last
time there was a disaster, only difference is we want to donate the vinyl,
instead of them digging it out of there vault
there is nothing to get excited about except helping those in need
65+ people los there lives, not to mention all the injuries and lost homes
and business, these peoples lives are changed forever.
this is nothing more than a goodwill gesture,
by the way, what did you two donate?

Right now I found some J-Dilla's and the Trouble and Bass. So I'd donate those if this actually kicks up. Sorry, it's not much though :(

its not how much or what, its all about helping with stuff that we have plenty of
thanks for even considering this and joing me, ninos, and rob so far
hopefully this will catch onand we could make a small difference

I can respect that. However, they need help NOW. Not in 7 or 5 days when the auction ends plus the time it will take to organize and ship the vinyl, NOW.

this is on top of my monetary donations
they will be needing help for many months

It's not my personal practice to give to any cause then say - "look at me, this is what I have done".. That's a bit egotistic - don't ya think..

Good intentions? I guess... But it came across as excitement for another auction - rather then genuine concern..with all this talk about "serato freaks" and the "color" vinyl your going to donate.. No solemness conveyed..

But if that's your way of helping then fine... No arguement on my part..

Let me offer this perspective and alternate point of view: the money raised from someone DONATING control vinyl may far exceed cash they might be able to AFFORD to give.

I appreciate the dialogue but find it difficult to read comments that appear to dismiss peoples' attempt to do what they can to help

Rob is the official spokesman for the forum.
Well said,and lets raise some vinyl!
Let's help and give opinions later?

Yah - who the cap fit mek them wear it..


Certainly..

So, where are you guys sending the vinyl to? As I have some Tits & Greens to Donate

when we get enough donations, we will contact Brigid at Serato,
and probably come up with a logistics plan when we know the amount
of the donations
thanks lumas13 for joining the effort

Sending vinyl around the world is wasting time and money, that makes no sense.
That's money you could've donated right away.
If you want to donate money from a vinyl sale, sell it at donate the money.

Don't get me wrong, help in any way is appreciated, I'm just sayin'...

I can donate a WHITE Nike-Head Porter Serato bag if anyone is interested. Roman...hit me up on PM.

we do not have anything set in stone, we are just seeing how many donations
we can gather, than foward this to brigid, and see if the are interested in getting involved
no sense in contacting serato with no committments for a donation
and yes there is a better way than shipping everything to N.Z
and then shipping back to the auction winner
it is a small obstacle that can be overcome

thanks feniks for coming on board, that would be a nice addition to the auction

Hey guys,
Feniks and Roman both sent me a message and pointed me to this thread.

It's incredible that you guys would all give up rare vinyl for another auction to help Christchurch. The support we got the first time around was phenomenal, and it's seriously cool that you've started this thread in anticipation of another one.

However, the circumstances are quite different this time around. Last time, while there was damage, we were lucky enough to have no casualties.

This time, the earthquake has devastated the city, and as a result, we've lost quite a few friends/fellow countrymen. We've talked about it in the office, and decided against holding another auction.

Instead, we will be contributing a donation from the company privately, and spreading the word to other people on how to donate.

If you can't afford to donate, spreading the message about how to donate helps just as much. The Red Cross is the best place to send money, but as that site has been getting a lot of traffic, here are a list of places you can donate (all of which will be sent to the Red Cross):

www.redcross.org.nz
www.oxfam.org.nz
www.grabone.co.nz

Thanks again for the support, it's been a tough time for NZ and the support we've received from nations around the world has been amazing. We really appreciate it.

God bless you, the Serato team and New Zeland.
I will be making more donations to the Red Cross.
And if you guys and gals decide to go through with the auction
the offer on my part will stand forever.
Thanks Brigid

ninos,imallama,rob,feniks has an idea that would work, we just need to figure out the selling part now
and then we could donate the proceeds
what do you think?
i have donated via red cross, but rob has it down, the vinyl would be more than the cash i can give, so still willing to donate my time and some more of my collection

Sweet. Let me know.

Smh..

roger rabbit, i have no problem with you not liking my posts and may think that they are in bad taste or whatever.you definiteley have a right to your opinion
but seriously, there is no ulterior motive here accept to help in an unique.
like i said, some of us have multiples of some rare vinyl, and if we feel like donating it,
that is our perogative.
will you please post only positive or meaningful posts at this thread.
as Brigid said, this devatated a whole country, not the time for opinions, its time to help
if you do not want to participate, you do not have to, but do not criticize those that are trying to help.

i was just going to say guys, but Brigid is part of the team, i do not think she wasoffended buy the gus and gals remark

I'm ready to move forward. Let the nay-sayers nay say. Let us doers do.

+1
lets do it

Maybe if we could get pics of everything that is for auction. I'd be willing to post the eBay auctions. Items would be shipped directly from original owners to the winners to avoid having to conglomerate the entire collection.

just let me know where to send the pictures feniks
