| The
growing demands for a way to fund the ever growing site, and,
more importantly, a way to purchase new material for the site
makes a new funding programme necessary. |
- This is the way I have
decided is best. There are a few things to keep in mind.
- I believe that this
is still in keeping with my "no advertising"
policy because YOU choose whether or not to go to the
new auction & sales site.
- Because the site is
now operated by a "not for profit" group,
Incorporated in Queensland, Australia, there is no
gain to me personally.

|
- All funds generated are to be
used for the purpose of expanding or supporting the web site
Digger History and it's Associate sites.
- All transactions are handled
under the rules of the world's largest Internet auction house,
Ebay. All safeguards are there, built in.
- Many items are offered for a fixed
price. No auction
worries. See it, like it, buy it.

- Please note the various safety
measures that Ebay suggest. They are for your benefit. Internet
trading can be very rewarding, all you need is a little
bit of caution.
- Please DO NOT approach me to
purchase an item listed with Ebay in some "private"
manner. It is against the rules and if I did that sort of thing I
would lose the Ebay account and my own self respect. (Remember, I
pay the fees, you don't).
- I accept PayPal, bank cheque,
Australia Post money order, personal cheque (subject to clearance,
5 days) or for sums under $15 Australian I accept Australian 50
cent stamps to the value.
- PayPal allows you to use
Visa, Master Card, Amex etc with complete safety.
- The fees are paid by me, not
by you.
allows you to use 
 
 
- Pay in Australian dollars to avoid bank
transaction fees !
- Overseas buyers pay in US dollars or GB
Pounds.
- I do not accept cash. Please do
not send any. It has a habit of going missing without trace.

The Q Store
Quartermaster, or Quarter Master
(and Quartermaster Store) are the names used by armies around the
world to describe the role and operations of the person or group of
persons or responsible for the gathering, control of and issue
of rations, equipment and weaponry.
In the Australian Army it gets
called the Q Store. It is the army's version of Woolworths, Coles Myer
and Bill's Gun Shop, all rolled into one.
Old army tale:
A new soldier approaches the salty old QM Sergeant and asks for an
issue of something. "Son", says the Sgt., "this is the
QM Store. The Army calls it a store because we store stuff. If they
wanted us to 'issue' stuff they would call it the QM Issues. Now go
away".
