I saw this through another dsm group and went and joined...it's kind of a raffle. Items are posted with a number of "spots for sale" then there is a draw and someone wins. First day I won ECMlink V3 in my choice of 1g or 2g for 2-20$ spots...I have also bought on a few more that are still open. I have NOTHING to do with this page!!, just wanted everyone to have the chance at some good stuff! Canadians have to pay there own shipping BTW

If you're not pressed for time, could be good. Like any game, nothing is for certain though. Rather buy exaclty what I need when I need it. Or, in my case triplicates lol

Isn't it a gray area to do raffles like this? Doesn't it borderline become unlicensed gambling? Just wondering.

If not, it's a sneaky way to sell your car for 10 000$ tongue

Technically, yes. This is gambling and you do need a license. Then again, all of my experience is performing such a raffle in a licensed establishment, of which you need to acquire a license. So it might be totally legal to do this out of your basement.

Much license.

Doesn't surprise me. It's a "way" of getting around betting. If it's a donation it's technically not gambling. Still iffy in my books.

It's a raffle.

I'm more surprised that it's allowed or not governed online.

Let me be the first to post my GT35R for $5 "numbers" and after I receive 1,000 submissions, I'll pick a random number, and the lucky winner gets a new $2000 turbo for only $5.

Well the ExtremePSI is 25 bucks a spot... 50 spots availlable, so after its done... someone gets $ 1075
worth of ExtremePsi.. and someone gets $175.

Extremepsi instantly sells over $1000.. So I would assume they are happy!

They have a few other "sponsers" too. Carbonetics is one.. theres aCF 2g rear window spoiler up for grabs.
