[Mudneck]

Hey did they raffel that rhino yet, I think I have had these darn tickets for going on 1 year & 8 months. Does anyone else have tickets for this? I am really upset with wasting the cash. I was led to believe the ARTIC cat or PROWLER was to be raffeled off that weekend in MARCH OF 2006. I want to know how LEGAL this is & where can I get a REFUND!

[GrlNextDoor]

I'd love to see some pics too.  Unfortunately, I started drinking too early and forgot about my camera.

[Mudneck]

Mine are so faded out from being on my visor in my truck. I got 6 anyone else have Raffel Tickets & getting pissed off about the raffel not being held yet?

[561rincon]

yeh pretty pissed i think they shoulda bit the bullet and ate the remainder of the tix and raffled it off

[HVYHLR53]

How much are the raffle tickets? I might just buy the remainder left to stop hearing everyone pregnant dog. Nobody has any pictures from the weekend?? Everytime I take a camera with me I end up loosing it in one of the holes.

[Mudneck]

There $10 each & you would pregnant dog if you waited over a 1 1/2 years for a raffel  that never took place. Buy the next 1-200 I will be happy to see a winner period.Its the point.You dont sell something & let it drag on this long without stepping up & either cancelling it giving a refund or sucking up the last few tickets & announcing a winner. Enough is enough already.It is just BAD business period!

[Bleedsblue]

I've never heard of a raffle that takes over a year, especially one that isn't advertised as such. Sounds like they bit off more than they could chew and instead of refunding it they are leading everyone along.

I'm sure they had a goal in mind.... sell so many tickets @ $xxx = money for machine = 1 happy person that they spent the $10.00. They probably didn't expect the low sales volume. I'm sure the constant bitchin on this forum didn't help sales either.

Anyways, I guess nobody has any pics of rednecks in the mud? I bet youall have pics of the raffle tickets! Sorry, couldn't resist that one!

We do raffles for fundraisers at work (we are a  non-profit). In order for them to be legal, they have to have a set beginning and end date. Unless specifically laid out on the tickets, the raffle must be held on that date and the item given to the winner. If it is laid out that a certain number of tickets must be sold by that date or the item will not be given away, then all funds must be returned in a 90 day period. Some items (on large ticket items) must be registered with some agency, but I do not know the info. on that.

When taking someone else's money, you should set REALISTIC goals.  This LCross is not just a farmer opening his property.  It is a business, they take in revenue.  They provide services.  Good for them, free enterprise reigns!  Lord knows farm prices are not that good.  Everything they makes goes to keep government regulations and then to freight out the product, the freight hauler has to give most everything he gets to the oil company, the grocer has to charge us more to cover his costs.   But that is another subject for another day.  

When you have a pie in the sky idea (a raffle), you should have a back up plan.  I never heard any complaining about the raffle until a reasonable date of drawing was well past.  Doubt it hurt sales.
They could show a special fund that has been set aside to prove that the raffle money is not just gone, too bad, so sad.  If they bought a machine with the proceeds of the raffle, is it stored for the eventual winner, or being banged up in use....so is the winner getting a "slightly used" vehicle vs what was advertised?   It all boils down to this, your word is only as good as your actions.

People pregnant dog about a whole lot less on this forum than money that seems to be thrown away.
Guess that is the nature of an open forum.  

So, where are the pics?

[LostCause]

So does anyone want to sell their ticket.  I will by it for 1.00 that way you get 1.00 back from your 10.00.

Clarify:  Is this offer only good pre raffle or open post raffle?

[Joedirt]

LOL This whole situation is funny.... Just rafffle the Thing and be done with it.

[LostCause]

PRE

lol

I have a ticket from February 2007. I am a little pissed off but only because so many other people have a lot more than $10 wrapped up into something that was supposed to be a good thing. If you blow $50 on lottery tickets, you don't get pissed off as we are because there IS a winner or it is rolled over. RAFFLE THE DARN THING!!

[wilburz]

You would think , with all the money the Peaces make , they would just dump the damn thing and make things right. so what if they lose a couple grand. Mr. Pierce must squeak when he walks.

Even if someone did they couldn't post them unless they are wearing helmets and how many rednecks playing in the mud have you seen wearing helmets? Very few.

Has anyone e-mailed Patricia P. about this? She is a member here. The way I see it is they have not sold enough tickets to pay for the full price of the unit. This has been going on for a while. I will E-mail her and aske her to chime in.

The funny part is that the owners seem to frequent this board where a lot of their income comes from & they still havent spoke up or stepped up yet.

They will probably announce a "winner" who is an unknown friend of theirs & will vouch for them. I hope not, but they have obviousley broken the rules or laws concerning raffles. Sorry for you guys who wasted your money.

[VForcedave]

 I just sent her a pm and asked. We shall wait and see.
