$77.50 Raffle ****CANCELLED****Spots for Beautiful One of a Kind Ginacue!!!
I am sad to say I have chosen to end this raffle. I was excited, as I know were all the participants, to see this beautiful cue end up in someone's hands for $77.50
I thought it would fill quickly, and certainly started like a "house on fire" but it appears to have slowed to a crawl. Perhaps there aren't 100 people who want to throw $77.50 at a 1:100 chance to win this cue.
My attorney, who I mentioned this raffle to in passing has been "all over" me about it as well. Here is a small excerpt from his last email to me regarding the "grayness" of the law in California regarding these raffles. I pay him handsomely for his advice, and probably shouldn't ignore it:
Penal Code Sec.319.
A lottery is any scheme for the disposal or distribution of property by chance, among persons who have paid or promised to pay any valuable consideration for the chance of obtaining such property or a portion of it, or for any share or any interest in such property, upon any agreement, understanding, or expectation that it is to be distributed or disposed of by lot or chance, whether called a lottery, raffle, or gift enterprise, or by whatever name the same may be known.
Penal Code Sec. 320.
Every person who contrives, prepares, sets up, proposes, or draws any lottery, is guilty of a misdemeanor.
So, given these factors I have chosen to end the auction. All monies received by me so
far have been via PayPal, and I will refund them all immediately (DONE).
I know some, including myself, had an emotional investment in this, and I apologize to any who feel slighted.
