Raffle idea?

[brushlessboy16]

I send my raffle money :)

I'm in, but I seriously think maybe a money order or something would be the best bet. I'd hate to see someone loose their paypal acount, and everyone loose their money because some paypal internet cruiser found this post and deemed it gambling. Here is a link to the other one I was talking about that got busted http://www.rc10talk.com/viewtopic.ph...6&hilit=raffle

Amazing the different opinions here. I agree w/Chris....a % should go to a worthwhile cause. I also agree w/Brian in doing a trial run as well.

This has the potential in serving 2 purposes. First, someone could win a great prize....and second, if this progresses, could help out the less fortunate. Remember, we are blessed w/the wonderful hobby which we all love and there are many that have nothing. I my self have to take a step back from time to time and realize that my own needs sometimes have to come second to the less fortunate.

Just my 2 cents worth

This might be the ticket. The Speed Calculator script download could be $5 for example. The only issue would be the taxman. If something is offered for sale in a forum this public, taxes would probably have to be collected/paid.

Instead of someone putting there PP account in jepordy . Just add the PP fees to your donation . So after they are deducted you are left with a $5.00 donation. I think thats the eaisest way to do this .
