I had to transfer the funds to my own PayPal account so I could then use my PayPal debit card to make the donation. There is a $2,000 transfer limitation per month on the fund account so I could only transfer $1,209.62 after making the two disbursments. That leaves a balance of $149.75 in the fund account. Paypals fee for the transfer was $35.38 leaving a net total transfer of $1,174.24. I have made the donation to the above charity. The outstanding balance will also be sent to them next month when the fund account is able to transfer funds again.

Responding to email notices you receive.
**************************************************
In short, DON'T! Email notices are to ONLY alert you of a reply to your private message or your ad on this site. Replying to the email just wastes your time as it goes NOWHERE, and probably pisses off the person you thought you replied to when they think you just ignored them. So instead of complaining to me about your messages not being replied to from this site via email, please READ that email notice that plainly states what you need to do in order to reply to who you are trying to converse with.

IMPORTANT! PLEASE READ!! About the Google Adsense ads being displayed

Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.
Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."
Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

Addendum: 01/10/2026
=====================
Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Thank you, Dennis, for taking this on. There will be some very happy kids because of it.
And thank you everyone who donated. Again, there are two very happy kids because of it.

And my last post made absolutely no sense, whatsoever.
How about this:

I have found the Pennsylvania Elder Abuse contact information.

If anyone has spoken with Mike and any concerns that you have about his abusing of his mother's identity and money, it would be good to take the time to contact them. Those who were ripped off by Mike using his mother's paypal account, you have a great deal of information to provide the attorney general. I am curious if his mother's nursing home has been receiving the money owed to them for her care. It would be good if we can get Mike's mother's address so the attorney general can send people to check on her.

junkyard, I will offer any information needed you all can just let tere know she knows how to contact me... I wonder though if any of that about his mother is even true since he is a compulsive lier and manipulator. I hope its not true for his mothers sake, but if it did again I will be more then happy to provide the police report info and stuff I filed. Thank you GUYS SO MUCH for the Merry Christmas!!! happy NEW Year all!

Happy New Year to you All!
Once I told my kids what had happened with Ebay, PayPal and Mikey and how you all donated your hard earned money at Christmastime to folks you didn't even know, they couldn't believe it! Both my kids said "Thank you". Unfortunately, when I went to get the PS3 at the store, they were sold out. I managed to get an XBOX360 with several games and they LOVE it!
You are all wonderful people and we thank you from the bottom of our hearts!

No. He called me and left a message, he was using a block on his number so I did not get a number to call him back. I sent him an e-mail, at the moment he has not sent anymore communications my way.Wilomn said:

I have a feeling they'll be much happier with an Xbox 360, the only real reason you'd want a PS3 is for Blu-ray as the PS3 doesn't have very many (good) exclusive games (exclusive as in for PS3 only and not for the PS3 and 360). There are tons of great games for the 360.
