We had an auction last night and did the Global Safari. It went for $4500. Since you have to split the amount with the company, we asked the other bidder if he also woudl buy one for $4500--he said yes so splitting it with the company--we did make $4500. It might be worth it for you to do that--if it gets that high then its pretty obvious the other person has an amount of money to spend and is interested. We also had in the program--what was included and what was not and made sure people knew airfare was not included. From what I understand--the one safari was going to be 4 guys going so they just planned to split expenses four ways.

Dont know how much response I will actually get back but wanted to share.
I went to our state locally made website. In KY its Kentucky Proud, I emailed a lot of local producers that I wouldnt have thought of otherwise. Such as bee keepers who make local honey and people to donate fruit!
