OK, here it is (sorry, I'm so %$&^@%^(*@'ing swamped you wouldn't believe it):
It turns out donations made in exchange for goods/services aren't tax deductible. I've been working to figure out how to handle this, and I offer this as my solution.
1) Donate directly to Childreach and not through us. If you choose to claim the donation that's up to you, essentially we'll send along the goodies separately from the donation and that should help those that choose to do so, but obviously, legally, we can't advocate this. It's quite possible that since we're donating the goodies and not the charity that it's legal anyway, but I'm no tax man. However, as well as I know many of you, we still need some form of verification that the payment has been sent to them, so you would have to get a copy of that to me before I can get the goods going your way. This means a bit more delay before you get a present in the mail, but what can you do? Donations can be made here: http://www.planusa.org/action/donation.php and choose whichever branch most appeals to you - they're all good causes. Credit card donations or snail mail/cheques, no paypal.
For those not concerned with a tax receipt that would like to get their stuff a little sooner (possibly - I'm not sure how quickly Child Reach processes stuff) or who need to pay Paypal, you can still do it through FB.Net. Simply let me know and when I hear from everyone I'll get the ball rolling.
Shine, regarding you specifically, I can't give you top spot in choosing the goodies, since that would be woefully unfair to those who bid high earlier and before the close, but if you're still making a donation Kathryn has volunteered her goodies and place in choosing them. You have only to let me know via email.
So, once again, please email me, and I still am waiting on some of you to give me your preferences.
Thanks,
Dean

Hey, once again, thanks to all the bidders this was a huge success.
And, uhh, I'm ready to mail these bad-boys out as soon as I get the go-ahead from Dean.
I've been keeping them safe for 4 months now and actually I'm ready to get them out of
my closet and into yours.

| Thanks, you too OMIACC and Dean for all your hard work. I made my contribution directly this weekend. It was very hard to choose which cause to direct the funds to. I ended up choosing the Pak. earthquake relief. So Dean, if for some reason that you didn't get it let me know and I can resend. |

Nope, turns out I'm still missing a bit. But emails have been sent and we should be able to send out things by the weekend I hope.

Damn, completely forgot I was waiting on that westport guy to email me back, I'm just going to send them out and he can have what's left. I'm sure you'll understand how it slipped my mind tomorrow. :)
