Proudly used PayPal.

Wouldn’t have posted just for that, but wanted to bump this back to the top. TB2K already proved itself for 2020 with WuFlu, but with all the protests, riots, looting and general carnage now, this is a great time to support TB2K!

Thanks to Dennis and the admins!!!

Couple thousand S & H green stamps on the way via pony express. Don’t worry, the guy with the pony suit in the Yugo assured me they would be delivered within your lifetime.
 
Just a question before I send my usual with a little extra.....when I charge something and Pay Pal is involved, I know they take a percentage out of the payment. Is that also true when sending you our money via Pay Pal? I know it gets to you faster, Dennis, but would you get that percentage more by us paying TB2K directly thru snail mail?

They do keep a couple percent of all transactions. If you want to send by snail mail, that’s perfectly fine. It’ll take a week or two for us to reach goal anyway. It starts out quick (we’re at 30% right now) but drops off after a couple days.
 
OK, I think I'll just go with Pay Pal so it gets there sooner. Some other members may need to send their pymts. via snail mail for personal reasons.

Hoping that with a bunch of new members, we will reach goal easily.

Where else will we get so much information so quickly? Where else would we get all this information on the rioting taking place all over the country? I am in awe at all the pages of news about the rioting that never seems to end!

When chatting with friends and neighbors, they don't hear anywhere near as much on their news sources as I do, here! I really appreciate all the input our members take the time and effort to post, keeping us so well informed! Let's everyone chip in and help Dennis achieve what's necessary to keep TB2K smoothly rolling along!

I’m happy that I was able to get it added in time. A little nip here, a little tuck there. Eventually we’ll get the place back into shape.

recently I have had paypal add their own surcharge on top

I bot a knife grinder for $2k and paypal added $12

when I sent $20.US to tb2k yesterday, I noticed it was more than the exchange rate

ended up being $28ish cdn (that would be 40%)

exchange rate is 30%

so it looks like paypal added about 10% ?

no biggie

just letting cdn folks know

Snail mail on it's way along with extra for those on limited budgets.

Keep up the good work Dennis! This site is well worth every cent I sent.

Done.

Dennis, be careful when opening my package. It's got vary sharp edges inside. And I sent it certified.

:D
