Reversed the donation flow order, such that comments, bids (and thus amount) are entered first, THEN the user is redirected to paypal.  It may be different, but I _HOPE_ this will make things simpler.
Removed a bunch of views that are now as a result unneccessary.
Small issue: donation donor is now no longer required to facilitate this set-up, this is the one major drawback of this method.
