If you want to buy tickets to your own raffle to a coin you dont own i would highly suggest you find a willing escrow to provide this service of holding funds and buying the coin.

I didn't look at the comments, I just saw that you used stock photos.  I'm not sure how I feel about auctions where the coin isn't owned by the person doing it or a community member who has offered it up.  You're basically trying to make money using other peoples money.

Good point as well.

OP, Why don't you just go buy yourself a coin if you want one that badly? Cheesy

I would assume you have an escrow for this as there's no way anyone would buy a ticket otherwise?

I am taking back my previous comment about you making money with other peoples money.  I don't actually see how you would make money and it looks like you might lose money so I am curious how you propose to pay for shipping since the coin will cost 1.5BTC and you are collecting 1.57BTC from the raffle.  I hope you weren't planning to ship directly to the winner from btcc.com because what if the winner is in the USA?
 
Also, no way anyone is going to buy a ticket to this without a trusted escrow handling the money.

Well as you can see from ALL of the slots already taken , by him saying he is his own escrow...lol

I think the OP needs to understand that no one here feels comfortable with going into a raffle (or sale) of an item he doesnt own and "promises " to purchase after the fact, and not have those funds laid out and available for that specific sole purpose with an escrow besides himself Smiley

You can be the most trusted person on this forum and you would be asked the exact same questions, this is by no means a personal attack, consider it 'advice' as you own "nothing" here,  and are expecting people to give you money for that.

I do think however if you set aside the proper funds with a trusted escrow for the purpose of paying for the coin and shipping and all that is involved with getting this safely to the winner, then maybe you might have some people join.

This is called OPM or Other People's Money - it was an old investment scam thing in the 80's - not saying you are scamming , not saying that at all. but the concept is about using other people's money to invest or buy something you dont own and make profit.

thanks!

Also, do you have the address that's showing the funds?

The picture shown is simply a stock picture of a regular .5 BTCC coin.  Just making note that it isn't the error coin being raffled.

The 'error'/double funded .5 coins are:
