  If all 200 tickets are not sold by December 31st, participants will be offered a refund.

wait im a little confused.... if all 200 tickets are not sold the bike will still be raffled off. Correct?

[silentbob]

We needed to set an end date for people to be able to get their money back.  If all the tickets are not sold by the 31st we will either raffle the bike for less than the 200 tickets or offer a refund to anyone that wants to opt out and continue the raffle for those that want to remain.

but wouldnt your odds be increased if all 200 weren't sold? why would anyone opt out because their probability of winning increased?

not if they extend the date and sell more than 200 tickets

[silentbob]

If we extend the date we still wont go beyond 200 tickets.

thx for the clarification. All sounds very fair

[lofty55]

how many tickets we at?

[Raux]

I'm trying to work ticket funds for myself. when is the deadline again?

[stopintime]

Can I PayPal someone close, since a check from overseas will be impossible.
That someone can enter a check in my name (sort of)?


*SOLVED**

[silentbob]

We are closing in on 140 tickets sold so far.  Xavi has decided to end the auction on the 31st and not go any further.  So if you want to get in time is running out and your odds of winning have gone up.  Currently a 1 in 140 chance.

We are planning on holding the drawing at 5pm Dec 31st at GP Motorcycles in San Diego.
