Duck Comander 1,000,000th Duck Call

I need to add that this is a quote from their ebay page.
This is the 1,000,000 call Duck Commander has built in 2013. This Classic Commander call is autographed by the A&E's Duck Dynasty's, Phil Robertson. Patriarch of the Robertson family, Phil, is better known by his alias; the Duck Commander. He created the Duck Commander® Duck Call in 1972, which has gone on to become the most trusted duck whistle ever conceived. The Classic Commander is a double reed, friction fit call.

The proceeds of this auction will be donated to the Northeast Louisiana Veterans Association Wounded Warrior Alumni. The funds raised will assist in paying for wounded veterans to come to North East Louisiana to hunt.

For an interview with Al Robertson and to see a video, you can go to the Arkansas Matters web site. The story is under Duck Commander to Make 1 Millionth Duck Call

The News Star also has the story and a video listed. Duck Commander hits 1 million milestone

Dang. Unless all one million duck whistles have been numbered and certified, that's just a regular ol' duck call someone signed. That they've made one million of them is just a point of interest.
 
Yeah. I doubt that it is the true millionth call made. Just one that they made to commemorate it. But it is cool that the proceeds are going to a Wounded Warriors foundation.
 
Pretty sleazy to launder money through a Veterans organization... Though I could see how it would work, being as people don't expect that from an organization like that.
 
I took a quick look & didn't see it was a missionfish listing. I guess its more believable then another million dollar religious figure on a grilled cheese sandwich though. To be in compliance with ebay's rules and regulations it must be setup through the fish mission.

I've done a few listings on ebay over the years for non-profits, gotten the money forwarded to the nonprofit, and then around 3 weeks -3 months later, sometimes paypal will send a matching check amount to the non-profit org.
When a listing is setup thru MF, there are no listing fees, no final value fees, no paypal fees.

So I'm looking around some more on the www, and find

Fans can bid on the Duck Commander’s 1 millionth call, which is signed by Phil Robertson, on eBay or through the company’s website

so maybe they don't know they could list it right and not give ebay $5000 (at this moment, $50.000 bid-- but who knows how high it will go) in final value fees. I cannot find a link to the "official ebay" listing on their website. But it looks linked up all over facebook &c so I guess it's legit. Their 1.000.000th duck call made this year, at $19.95 to a high of $179.95. I'm in the wrong business.

It would be wonderful if the Northeast Louisiana Veterans Association (501C3/NPO, so it would take them just a day to setup with MF) (and all similar organizations) were setup with MF, so anyone, anywhere, could run charity listings for them.
