Which leads to the following question:

Who will be doing the drawing, and how will we know it's fair?
I am starting to become a little concerned about this whole thing...

then don't enter, most of us have known chris for a long time, and know he's a standup guy. He also is open to having members over to his house for the drawing..

Too late.

You have to understand that this isn't about who is buddies with who. It's about people's money, and this needs to be taken seriously. I think it's important for everyone to know how the whole system is going to work. If this is not going to be done in a professional manner, then I would like my $30 back. Plain and simple.

originally, he already explained everything to everyone before, that when he was seeing how many people were interested. And as for the buddy comment, yet it IS about that, he doesn't have to hook up a pretty damn good discount on the TV, he's doing so because he likes a lot of us here and wanted to do something nice for the anniversary. He's not making any money off of this and we the winner will get the TV at cost...

You're saying "cost" on this TV is $2899...is this retail cost or what? You can buy this same model for $2695 on ebay from sellers with 4000+ feedback (plus shipping of $259). Granted that's still more than $2899 if shipping is included, but when I hear "at cost" I would think dealer cost, not consumer cost.


I'll be in when the collected amount gets closer, I just don't like the idea of joining in now when there is no final date and no guarantee it'll get to $2899 this year....or for that matter next year....

It that amount is not met, we will opt out for a cheaper 37" model .
