Title: thinkin about raffling my car off
Post by: gti turbo on 24 March 2005, 18:40

hi there. I am trying to sell my 1996 gti anniversary but am having no joy.
so I thought about raffling it off either on here or ebay. Or even at big bang at santa pod next
bank holiday. Tickets would probably be £5.00 each and I would need to sell about 350 to make it worth my while.
which means that one lucky person would get a mint mark 3 gti anniversary for a fiver and with a 1 in 350 chance of winning the odds have got to be good.
whats your opinion on the idea and how could I make it look NOT like a scam
cheers peeps.

But what would you do if you only sold 20 tickets?  You'd be a bit sad then, wouldn't you, waving bye-bye to your Golf and waiting in the bus queue........

Not the best of ideas! :shocked:

Alright if it goes well, though bloody hard work, but if it cocks up :embarassed:

Stick with trying to sell it. Spend the time and effort sorting out advertising the car on all the free papers/websites and auto trader type things and you'll get a more reliable return.

If not good luck with the scam, sorry scheme :laugh:
