[CLOSED] Casascius MS 69 1 BTC silver, MS69 0.1 BTC, MS65 Bowl coin

[monkeynuts]

A raffle of 16 spots, for 16 hex characters - each hex character is a ticket 0 - 9, then A - F in that order

16 prizes available all listed in fixed order of approximate value, last character of the block hash of a block chosen when all tickets are paid for will choose the winner. (I will call what the specific block is at this point, prior to the block being mined)

1st prize goes to the hex character at the end of the stated block on the chain
2nd prize goes to the hex character at the end of the stated block on the chain + 1
3rd prize goes to the hex character at the end of the next block on the chain + 2
etc

Once we get to F, then we start again at 0 for the next prize allocated
So fixed order of prizes, hex raffle ticket, 1 draw determines the starting point for a fixed order of distribution for all 16 prizes

Ticket slots are available now, payment not taken until all 16 are reserved, initially 1 slot per person. I may extend to multiple slots per person, if its needed to push over the line.

HOWEVER, at any time until the last slot is reserved, all 16 prizes are available as a buy it now for 5 BTC  (no bartering, including shipping)

Ticket price is 0.35. So I value you have a 25% chance of breaking even or much better, and wont 'go home' empty handed. Again shipping included

These are the prizes and order
1 - Casascius 1btc silver coin graded MS69
2 - Casascius 0.1 btc silver coin graded MS69
3 - Casascius St Petersburg bowl coin graded MS65 plus St Petersburg bowl patch

Bump. I would welcome any comments here, even if not interested in a ticket / BIN. (Thanks)

[chronicsky]

Except the first 5 prized , rest aren't worth 0.35

And it's a big amount to risk anyway

So am not sure you can find all tickets

If some prizes are worth (much) more than the ticket price, then naturally some prizes have to be less.

I will give it a few days and see how this runs

Increasing the number of tickets, while lowering the cost, reduces the chances, so again, its not straightforward. MJ's 256 ticket raffle seems to be geting some traction though.

I am toying with the idea of a reverse auction for all 16 prizes as a single lot, but figured the buy it now as being fairly competitively priced already

YEs that is true the price will be less naturally
But risking 0.35 BTC per ticket is little hard and not everyone have that fund in hand always

Maybe increase the ticket and lower the price money?

Then folks will say that there isnt enough chance to win. Reckon I will go back to good old sales and auctions
