I see the point you're making - be it in humor, criticism, whatever.. but it
would still contradict his motives. IF they NEED "equipment", why get it
donated only to sell it for the cash to present to them? Just keep the
equipment. IF he is on the up and up and I'm not saying he isn't, it may be
a good idea for him to make a public statement in his own behalf. Perhaps
explain or apologize for the way it "appears". Thank those who may have
donated. Just suggestions, not a sentence handed down. It just all "looks"
so hokey. That is the opinion many have taken and it's by his doing, not
ours. If he can make it look reasonable, who knows, it could boost his sales
too! I don't know that we've heard from him since his "requests" for
equipment donations. I don't know that he has even replied to anyone when
they questioned his requests at the onset. I've read many posts over the
months, maybe I missed his replied here or in other Amateur sites. HE needs
to do some damage control for his own sake or that of the club he was
allegedly representing. MNS

I'm sure any of the equipment he's selling that was on the "donated"
list, is not for his personal gain, but for the club's. He just hasn't
listed it that way because he wants to surprise his club with a little
cash present. Ya, that must be it. ;-^
