As Scott mentioned, it’s important that we keep these funds
separate from the club funds. Perhaps a supply of envelopes so that we can put
the proceeds from EACH sale into a separate envelope. Thanks, Mike The Banker…. <grin> From:

Of sc.smiley@juno.com One other point that was made that I thought was a good idea
is that if members wanted to bring some train items to sell we have all of
those shelves in the room that could be used to hold them on display.
Since it will be hard to watch things and keep them from going out the door on
their own, I would not bring real expensive items. I am planning on
bringing some ready to go made up sets so people could buy something for their
Christmas tree. Some guidelines for these items are in order since not
everyone will there all the time to monitor their items. All items need to be marked with price. I would think
that no negotiations except by owner. All items need to be marked with owner or some identifier. Provide a reasonable description of the item(s) if not
obvious so others can explain what it is being offered. ie. sound, smoke,
in an engine.... Bring a few bags to carry items out, as well as some packing
material. We will have a book or pad to collect the money and write
down the item sold and previous owner. Also a money box. Should be
emptied often. Respond with other needs, suggestions, or problems. Scott
