(...) I'm not so worried about that -- if I buy in at $10, it (logically) doesn't matter to me how the other $490 is paid out -- I still have a 2% chance of winning. Plus, the issue is somewhat self-correcting. The "deep pockets" are more likely to (...) (18 years ago, 2-Mar-07, to lugnet.starwars)

(...) Todd, do you have an account at FBTB? I think you'll get a lot more responses if you posted this there. I think the raffle is a good idea - you just need 50+ more people who also think it's cool to make this whole thing worth doing! -Bryan (18 years ago, 1-Mar-07, to lugnet.starwars)

(...) I just decided to order one for myself (couldn't resist, besides they will not bill the credit card until it ships) and tax was added. It added about $34.00 to the total. So, the cost of tax would have to be factored in, but there is no (...) (18 years ago, 1-Mar-07, to lugnet.starwars)

(...) I like that idea! Organize the event and get the raffle done prior to the deadline for free shipping. I could then have it shipped to the person and I'll pay for it with the money collected. That would be easy. (...) Not so fast Brian. I could (...) (18 years ago, 1-Mar-07, to lugnet.starwars)

(...) Sounds like a good idea. I would pay up to $10 for a chance. I think tickets should be limited to one per person so that everybody has an equal chance of winning, and to avoid a case where the "richest person" wins (i.e. s/he bought the most (...) (18 years ago, 1-Mar-07, to lugnet.starwars)

(...) I thought it was a fun idea and would participate. I'd be good for two tickets at $10.00 each. I don't use PayPal or any other online payment service so may be out of luck. Thanks for offering to take the project on. Jonathan (18 years ago, 1-Mar-07, to lugnet.starwars)

To All, Hey, I just saw a great idea on Eurobricks (URL) They are holding a raffle for the $500.00 Millenium Falcon 10179 set. So I am interested whether or not the community on LUGNET might be willing to do this. Here's my thinking: There are few (...) (18 years ago, 1-Mar-07, to lugnet.starwars, lugnet.announce)

(...) John, I think I do. Is one of the ten loose parts a grey rod? If so, I have 9 base pieces and a grey rod as the 10 loose pieces. I have 5 sealed bags labelled 1 through 5. Thanks for your help!! (18 years ago, 27-Feb-07, to lugnet.starwars)
