Guest Posted November 13, 2008 Share Posted November 13, 2008 All, There are 3 remaining Tip to Tip wings that need to be sold. I did not want to put them on E-bay as the last one sold for less than £900 before fees. I have a few Ideas... 1) A raffle? I could sell raffle tickets in the shop, to the tune of £1300 and then ask the local Air Ambulance to pick a number out of the hat... or similar... 2) We could run a club bid (not E-bay) If you think this is a good Idea, your reply should have your number (min) £1000. 3) advertise for sale at £1300 each Any thoughts? help needed.

frazer1981 Posted November 13, 2008 Share Posted November 13, 2008 watching the cash, i would say at least one should be a raffle!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragonphotographic Posted November 13, 2008 Share Posted November 13, 2008 I would favour the raffle route myself. However, it may come under the lotteries and gaming act and be subject to tax. (I'll check out the latest regs if you like. I used to run raffles for the air ambulance regularly) The advantages are obvious, you pays a little money and someone gets a great result. As long as you set your minimum to the mentioned £1300 plus any tax liability the idea's a great one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Posted November 13, 2008 Share Posted November 13, 2008 Hi, l reckon a raffle for at least one of the wings then everyone has a chance of owning one. Two obvious points though, is how many tickets can be sold in what sort of time span and secondly how much. If each ticket is say £5 l would buy four at least. My pennies worth anyway haha.

dantheman Posted November 13, 2008 Share Posted November 13, 2008 I like option 3 - just advertise them at £1300 each, would be a bargain to anyone on PMC starting to learn, if you have more than three buyers only then would you need to think about how to dish them out. Maybe a reply to this thread saying I WANT ONE on a first come first served basis - at least you would know where you stand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
huffhuff Posted November 13, 2008 Share Posted November 13, 2008 Combine it with the Christmas doo somehow. Charge extra for tickets then have someone pick winning number at the end... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragonphotographic Posted November 13, 2008 Share Posted November 13, 2008 I WANT ONE! I can't afford £1300, but I can afford a £20 punt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
