Default Was thinking of doing a PS4 Raffle? NON PROFIT

I have had a few (don't shoot me!) and they have sold in about an hour, but I have been left with one for 2 days now.

Anyway my idea is for a Killzone bundle PS4 raffle:

Limit the amount of tickets to 400 if they were £1 a ticket, 200 if £2 a ticket etc. Dependant on how many were interested.

Transfer the money via Bank transfer to a Moderator so everyone is that little bit more comfortable I'm not going to do a runner. (I'd imagine most people have online banking these days so it'd be easy to send) or send it via a PAYPAL gift so no fees were incurred.

I've got lots of time on my hands this week so I don't mind writing out the large amount of names and putting them in a hat to draw out the winning ticket. This could be done with a local scoobynet member and maybe filmed and uploaded here to prove nothing dodgy has gone on.

Let me know what you think? If it's possible or not, or what could be done to make it better/fairer etc.

Thanks

Timmy

All £400 to charity, or £400 minus what the bundle owes you?

I'd be in, even if it's £4 per ticket for 100 people. Although I think we'd struggle to get that amount in SNR. You will probably be better off posting it in General Section as well (if you're allowed and if it isn't breaking any SN forum rules?).

Don't quite understand, but if it wasn't clear: £400 back to me (I can take it back and get a refund if I want, just wanted to do something fun and give a little back to the forum) NO PROFIT WILL BE MADE BY ME OR ANYONE ELSE

Thanks

Think I'll post a link to this in the general section to see if it can gather enough interest.

Sorry to be the killjoy, but SN and Internet Brands doesn't allow raffles to sell an item (in marketplace rules).

Main reason being its a legal headache for it to be legit as it may need to be registered with your local authority or the Gaming Board.

Also Moderators cannot be used as a intermediary for funds; We are a just random strangers on the internet so you can't trust us either.
