WE ARE LEAVING - THANK YOU ALL!!!
« on: August 18, 2017, 04:02:12 PM »
Guys I am looking to sell most of my music collection and other items to have enough money to leave my country (Venezuela) I don't know if you are aware of our current situation but Venezuela it's now a failed state and our conditions here are worsening everyday.
I asked permission to the admins/mods to post this thread here.

If you want to know a bit more I've been posting relevant info of the situation of Venezuela in this thread:

https://www.mikeportnoy.com/forum/m2991797.aspx

The items I am selling varies from CD to DVD, BR, and miscellaneous, Including a Dream Theater Leather Jacket SIZE M that I bought back in 2010 which I have wore only 3 times.
At the DT shop site it sells for $375 shipped I am looking to get $300 shipped

Here's an album where you can see pictures of all the items I am selling:

https://ibb.co/album/bEMkQa

With every single purchase of my items or donations, I will be giving mp3 files of a concert that I am sure DT fans will love to have.

In case you guys want to help our departure this is our PayPal account:   
 
Or you can donate to the GoFundMe campaing that The Fish (forumer at MP forum) set up:   
 

   
Best, 
JP

Got my items in the mail yesterday, surprisingly quick! I'm very happy and proud to own them and add them to my collection, so thanks again MinistroRaven, and once again, best wishes and good luck with your journey! I know it must suck having to part with such things, but life happens, and I'm glad to see you getting rid of more of this stuff! I hope everyone else who wanted things here got theirs as well and will enjoy them as much as you did, and as much as I will!

Ok I am going nuts here, but I really need to sell this.

I will let the DT LEATHER JACKET GO FOR $220 USD shipping included

If we get that money today we could depart tomorrow. I will also include a DT banner with the purchase of the jacket  (I don't know what other name to give to it) it has pictured MP JR JLB JM JP with the TOT background it measures 5 feet long and almost 3 feet wide

If interested I will send you a picture of it.

I'm sorry to see you parting with all this stuff mini. I know how much you like DT and MP stuff and I can't even imagine getting rid of, say, my Stratovarius stuff. It'd be heartbreaking.

I know I said over on MPForum (this is Firewings) but I want to know when you get out of Venezuela safe and sound, after you get yourself all settled and taken care of. Best of luck my friend.

We just got the money from the GoFundMe campaing this morning as The Fish settle it to be received at his father in law account, and were waiting for it to hit his bank account, it was all we were waiting for to depart. But my sister in law is giving birth next Friday so we have postponed our departure for September 26th, 2017. I will post an update about it when the time comes Firewings/Kattlelox thank you for having us in your thoughts bud.

Ah, fair enough, no worries. I was surprised, I figured he'd have mentioned it on the forum if he'd got married.

Good luck with everything Ministro.

We are leaving tonite.
I don't know when I'll be posting here again, I hope it is sooner than not as I have sold my cellphone because it is not unlocked and I can't use it there. I also sold my laptop and have to deliver it in a couple hours to my brother in law.
We are as I said earlier, thrilled, excited but scared to start from scratch in a different country with our sons.
I want to thank all of you who helped us by donating to our campaing and our PayPal, purchasing our items, by praying, or sharing thoughts with us you are all in our hearts, and we thank you from the bottom of our hearts.
All the best to you guys.
