Title: Antminer S1 Raffle ( 0.0025 per ticket )
Post by: Convicted2008 on February 09, 2015, 05:41:01 PM
I'm gonna hold a raffle. I am going to raffle off a single Antminer S1 w/o powersupply. The ticket entry is 0.0025 which at current market price is $.56 per ticket. Since there's no way of holding people true to their word, you can purchase unlimited tickets if you want to. We are gonna have 1 main winner for the Antminer S1 and 2nd and 3rd place will get their btc refunded.

Also if you wanting to know the reason I'm getting rid of it, well its tax time. I'm selling my Silverfish 28mh scrypt miner and looking to upgrade to something around 100mh. I only had 1 SHA256 unit so I may as well get rid of it. I only paid 0.1 for it from another bitcointalk member last year. The miner is running right now if anybody asks if it works or not. No issues with it at all. Works great.

Send the btc to the following address: 1GuNj981dWUcFAaYGHJzxAnSFnzUuGFUVk

Make sure that you post in the thread the address it came from and the amount of tickets you purchase. If you have any questions or concerns email me at any time or if you wish since I don't want to publicly release my home phone number, I will give it to you or call you directly. I'm not trying to scam anybody there's no reason for it. Its gonna cost me as much to ship the damn thing as what its worth to sell it. I'd rather raffle it off and pay $20 to ship it and get my reputation up. If enough tickets are not sold to pay for the shipping then the btc will be refunded as well.

Your more than welcome to add me on Facebook as well. I have no problems with showing my identity.

This belongs in games and rounds (reported).

I think it would probably be better if you had an escrow hold the funds and then the escrow can use an RNG (or random.org) to select a winner

I did post it in Auctions, but I didn't see nobody that's ever held a raffle there or I overlooked it. As for the escrow, since its minimal amounts I don't see the need for it. People can look at my trust and see I'm not no scammer of any type.

Since nobody bought 1 ticket raffle is closed.

Sorry to hear that, it was a nice idea. They're still fetching alright money on ebay it's probably your best bet putting it on there or selling on here for a set price.
