Christopher Marks Posted June 1, 2002 Share Posted June 1, 2002 The Nano-Reef.com Raffle is now open! Get your raffle tickets! You could win your choice of a Nano Reef Aquaria 7.5 system or 4 stage 100 GPD RO/DI! Raffle tickets are only $10 each, and there is no limit on how many tickets you may purchase. Only 500 tickets will be sold, making your chances of winning 1 in 500, or better if you purchase more than one ticket. Two winners will be randomly chosen once all of the tickets have been sold, or by July 6th, whichever comes first. Each winner will be given a choice of either a 7.5 gallon Nano Reef Aquaria system of their choice, or a 4 stage 100 GPD RO/DI system made by Aquatic Reef Systems. International members are welcome to join in the raffle also! Click here for more details! Link to comment
Sahin Posted June 2, 2002 Share Posted June 2, 2002 Hi chris, I tried to buy two raffles, but the paypal service crap says I have to look at my bank next statement for a stupid number, then I get to COMPLETE my paypal membership, and only THEN do I get to purchase the raffles... Kinda silly. Link to comment
Christopher Marks Posted June 2, 2002 Author Share Posted June 2, 2002 I'll see if I can make it so non-paypal members don't have to signup. Link to comment
Sahin Posted June 2, 2002 Share Posted June 2, 2002 I already signed up, they have already charged me for the membership, which I dont mind, but its waiting for that crappy 4-digit number on my bank statement to activate my account with them, thats the silly part! Link to comment
Pele Posted June 2, 2002 Share Posted June 2, 2002 Hi Chris, I'm having a similar problem, but then again Paypal has never liked me or my cc/bank info. It just won't let me sign up period, it either says I already have an account or that my information is invalid. If one were to mail the payment in and it doesn't reach you by the 6th, then what? This site is incredible, btw. Thanks for putting it together. Pele Link to comment

JIM27 Posted June 5, 2002 Share Posted June 5, 2002 Chris are we getting a number or somthing for buying a ticket? Link to comment

HuBu Posted June 5, 2002 Share Posted June 5, 2002 hey chris. i have a major question. we are suppose to get a ticket number after paying for the ticket. when are we suppose to get this email because i paid thru paypal.com and received a receipt email but i accidentally deleted it. thanks to the UF email server. theres no way i can get that email back.

Djm9288 Posted June 7, 2002 Share Posted June 7, 2002 Hi Chris, I was wondering if you could please, please if possible give me a free ticket? Im only 13. I am trying to get into this hobby. If i won i would get the RO?DI system. It would make my day, especially since my only real income is my $8.00 allowance. Sincerely Daniel (p.s. have i told you how nice you are and how wonderful you and this site is, lately) Link to comment
JIM27 Posted June 7, 2002 Share Posted June 7, 2002 That doesn't seem very fair to the other members. You also have to remember Chris is doing this raffle do make money to pay for running this site. Link to comment
Djm9288 Posted June 7, 2002 Share Posted June 7, 2002 Fine, ill probably end up failing my tank, and ill never do this hobby again. Link to comment
JIM27 Posted June 7, 2002 Share Posted June 7, 2002 How does possibly not getting a free raffle ticket make your tank fail? I don't understand your logic. (Edited by JIM27 at 1:40 am on June 7, 2002) Link to comment
NINReeferX Posted June 7, 2002 Share Posted June 7, 2002 he's 13 , but i wish I could get a free ticket also, After all I only make 6.55 an hour <J/K> don't be retarded dan -the raffle is to make money so I don't think that freebies are an option Link to comment
Djm9288 Posted June 7, 2002 Share Posted June 7, 2002 Hey it was worth a shot. Daniel Link to comment
Guest AbSoluTc Posted June 7, 2002 Share Posted June 7, 2002 Perhaps if you spoke to chris in PRIVATE and not publicly, he might have been able to do something for you. Since, if you did that, none of us would have known that you got a free ticket. But, you will never know now will you? Link to comment
HuBu Posted June 7, 2002 Share Posted June 7, 2002 abs is right. but then again...there are a bunch of 13 yrs old on this board. see them asking for a free tic? Link to comment
cjm033 Posted June 7, 2002 Share Posted June 7, 2002 im 14 and not asking for a free ticket and sucking up to Chris,Chris:) Link to comment
