Today I have posted a thread for us to pledge donations to the 2007 ATF Fundraising. Of course, all donations are appreciated in equal measure but I feel that I should make special mention of a donation by Vince of ModelsForSale.com.

In January, before the raffle was cancelled, Vince contacted me and said that he would like to contribute to the prize list. Of course, I was most happy to accept and thanked him very much for what is a very generous contribution. His donation will consist of a selection of kits and modelling accessories which will be given as individual prizes - once we have sorted out what our fundraising activities are going to be. Vince and I still have to discuss the actual prizes and once we have done so, I will make a post in the Prizes and Pledges thread.

I'm sure you will join me in thanking Vince very much for what is not an insignificant donation and for his continuing support of ATF.

Dave

I'll second that. Great bloke Vince! Helped me out with some things recently, and I've just this second finished placing a couple of orders with him.

He's an evil man, who is in league with the devil and my credit card company in their mission to bankrupt me

I've had nothing but excellent experiences with Modelsforsale and from a short membership on his forum I can say that Vince is a very nice man indeed. Good on him for offering his support!
