Thinking of doing another Raffle

[mark lane]

could i just throw this idea at you all,
lets say a bank account was opened in heliaddicts name which raffle payments could be paid into,then once all tickets had been sold the money would be transfered to the seller .This way peoples bank details wouldnt be banded all over the place.im sure that people who use this forum are all trustworthy people but it would give you that peace of mind that your only ever giving one person(heliaddicts) your details.im not sure whether this is feasible or whether the administrators would approve?

.... including a small percentage for support of the site

Stuart... is this possible mate. Could be a good honest addition to the site and we are all agreed that everyone enjoys the raffles?

I would feel much better if the raffles were run in this way.

Looks like Stuart has already done some work on the raffle idea -> Test Raffel - RCHA Ads

There's a 'test' raffle in the classifieds section.

LOL - okay as test can you buy the test raffel, I want to see if the qty goes down I have another way to do this also via the store so I'll put a test one up there tomorrow - I don't mind using the business reserve account to hold funds as security for the raffel.

I think this would be the best way to do them and as you say a small percentage can go to RCHA for this. So this would stop any issues arriving with paypal because you are a business?Then you would simply transfer the money over. The only issue I could see is that when doin a raffle the seller needs to know who has paid for what for number so it can marked of the list which is extremely time consuming.So Stuart would have to do something to let the seller know as you could not really have the buyer of a ticket just saying I have paid. ??? Not easy doin a raffle

IMHO it all seems more trouble than it's worth.
