Am I the only one who HATES it when people type ebay auctions in all caps?
I MEAN, IT'* REALLY ANNOYING, BECAUSE YOU'RE TRYING TO READ WHAT THEY'RE ACTUALLY SAYING, BUT YOUR EYES ARE SO FREAKING JARRED BY THE 'ALL CAPINESS' OF IT THAT YOU CAN'T ACTUALLY FOCUS ON WHAT THEY'RE SAYING. I MEAN, IT'* REALLY FRUSTRATING.

...what in the world? If the dude wants to sell 20 lots of tickets @ 50 bucks each, then why don't he just auction the car the "normal' way with a $1000 reserve price...????

And what would be the incentive to pay if you don't win? Do all of the payments have to be in before */he draws the ticket?
edit: Good grief, one of the main "plugs" is that you get 20 tickets for $50. Umm.. if everyone buys 20 tickets, there'* no advantage, right?

EVERYBODY RUN! Ford boy has an idea.....
perhaps be the only person to buy a ticket, during the final seconds of the auction. if you are the only person who buys a ticket... then you SHOULD have a car for $50. right?

Only problem was, his "drawing" was held remotely, and very privately, and some unknown person "won"...lol...He did have a picture of the "winner" though...lol...
His new bike looks a LOT like the raffled off one though...just has a nice (probably $10,000) paint job now...
