HAPPY HOLIDAY AND AN ANNOUNCEMENT from Joey
Friday, December 14, 2007, 05:27 PM
Dan and Joey of RavenLoches Entertainment hope this finds you all in a great time of the holiday swing and we hope that all your wishes come true.
My apologies for not updating here but I would like to thank those who have kept up the information in my stead. It's great to have people step up and keep it going. Thank you again.
What I’m writing here today is a feeling out process for an idea I have and I'd like to see if anything will come of it.
As many of you know, it's been a particularly interesting year for me and my family and I wish I could say things are better. All a man can ever dream of is having his family happy. Everything else is secondary.
I have the greatest family that anyone could ever wish for. They've taken care of me through many trying and tiring events and quite often I'm not able to give back other than to try and smile and encourage them on to attain their dreams.
In that vein, the holidays here aren't looking like there will be much under the tree. I'm the last to look for charity and I don’t want it here. An idea dawned upon me. Use the things that have been special to me over the years.
In my personal collections, I have a great many things that will make someone else happy in a new home. Some of them are interesting items that I'm managed to salvage from abandonment and others have been personally acquired due to my collector nature and the interesting people I've met over the last decade.
So along those lines, I'm going to attempt to have Joey Cruz's Personal Collection Sale with somewhat of a garage sale attached to it. There are things that may not be tremendously expensive and need to find a new person to love them. Other things are for someone special who will love them. Still, prolly not too terribly expensive.
I don't know much about selling things online and I actually like the human contact of telling stories of how something came to be. I would like to try Ebay and Craig's List but I dunno how (some media guy I am). Never bought anything from them either so it's a two-way street of ignorance.
If there were to be a face-to-face sale, it would go two ways. Garage sale style for a great many things, and then an auction of the more eclectic stuff.
Dunno if this will be before or after Christmas but I will say that everyone who is here visiting RavenLoches will certainly have the jump on the news and happenings of what is happening.
Like I said, this is just a "feeling out" idea phase since I have neither a place to do it nor an idea on how to get started.
I may try to move large quantities of books to used bookstores straight off rather than try to sell them one-to-one from a table, dunno what to do with my comics (mebbe my Dr. wants them for credit on his bill), I have multi-media and game design college textbooks that I don't know where to sell and the list goes on...
This is certainly not a sympathy ploy, ya’ll know me for being honest. These items have given me much happiness over the years and more but I would like to be able to get my girlies something for Christmas and I think it's a fair trade.
Over the years, I and everyone involved in my ventures - RavenLoches, my radio, law enforcement, entertainment and music fields - have always made it our goal to bring happiness to as many people as possible. This may be my last chance, with the family in one place, to bring some home.
My phone is down, but please email me at
