Hiya Christine,

I’ll respond to each individually:

There are two types of membership. The first is the Gold SadGeezer Membership (all items of merchandise and this costs about 30 pounds). The second is the Silver SadGeezer membership which is [b]free[/b] and you also get a free SadGeezer pen. The only thing we ask for is that you pay the postage. It’s only a few pence in the UK (38pence I think), but the cost of shiping a pen and a letter to say California from the UK is about 2 dollars. Since we are giving stuff away, we only ask that you pay postage.

quote[quote][b] …and i would also like to know why are some of the forums private?? like the Auction one?? i mean i would like to sell some of my stuff… or try to any way .. but i don’t have the pass word…. now how could i go about doing this ??? do i need to be a full fledged memeber or do i need permission from SAD or what?? if anyone can help please respond !!! thanks !!

There are a couple of private forums for SadGeezer Members. The auction is one of them. The auction is for members to sell any surplus sci fi stuff to other members and it’s a feature of SadGezer Membership.

There are two ways to gain access:

  1. You must be a SadGeezer Member to participate and you must be issued with a password
  2. You should email me with your SadGeezer Membership number and I will grant you privalaged access (saves having to type in the forum password each time you try and enter).

Hope that answers your questions. I should say that the SadGeezer club membership is still pretty new and we have a lot of shy members out there, so it’s pretty inactive at the moment. However, there will soon be competitions and auctions of sci fi merchandise on a regular basis once we get the SadGeezers Guide up to date (its undergoing a major re-development as you may have noticed).

Also, if enough of you insist, I could open the auction forum up to non members so that you can try it out for a while… what do you think?
