I thought they only did that for retail transactions? I send money to friends and they don't take anything from it. Plus I wonder if they have something special for charity.

In reply to:

Jack, You need to remember this one important detail: When we get the tickets ready for sale, you will have to BUY one in order to have a chance of winning ...


I'm sorry, but that's expecting too much. I think I should win based on good looks alone?

Inane - You could be right. My experience with Paypal is receiving money for selling gear, which then goes into my wife's "shopping" account ... and perhaps 3% is not such a big deal.

I will just make sure $2500 goes to the charity, period.

As soon as I get the nod from Amie on Monday, I will post both our paypal e-mail address and a mailing address.

Once we get the 100 people in and verified, the drawing will occur.

Two thoughts:
I think the percentage lost to PayPal would more than be made up by additional donations due to the ease of doing so....
and...
Are there even 100 of us on the board?

Word about these things has a way of getting around.

Here is a deal - Once the raffle officially opens here, the Axiom board has 24 hours of exclusivity, then it gets posted on AVS and Audioholics.

3% of $25 is only 75cents so for those who wish the convenience of paypal could send $25.75.

Snakeyes - Thanks for the idea, but $25 is more than fair from each ticket holder ...

Yeah, I would rather send the 25.75 through paypal for ease of use and the confidence that my money will get there in time to be in the first 100. Checks and snail mail too slow!
