[Ben]

What you think lol

[db_1.2]

Spag......

Think i seen it round my end a long while ago, cant really miss itm might be a different car but its rather close to me......

[ade]

lol at bid for a number bit! 1 in 49 chance of winning!

and do you trust someone to refund your money if not all 49 no's are sold?

I dont.

nice idea but not for my cynical world.

Car will sell for ?1225 if 49 no's are sold too...

I like the colour

[Stanley]

its a shame the cars rank but a nice idea all the same

could be a scam where he takes off on the 1st december though haha

[Ben]

lol its mine you fools!

Its not a scam!

Someone will win it as long as all 49 balls sell.

[Stanley]

its just clicked that ?25 and you could have that car lol

imagine that!! hehe

granted its not my cup of tea but even so!

Really nice twist to an ebay auction

[Ben]

Wheels are worth more than that lol

[JSeymour]

Hmm. its only ?25......... i think its a good idea, might even give it ago.

[Ben]

LOL theres 15 watchers already, only been on half an hour.

[Stanley]

bet you wish the National Lottery had more numbers now eh?? lol

[Ben]

49 is a long way off yet!!

[db_1.2]

You ever driven it to Westbury by any chance Ben?lol

[vallanc3]

someone did this with a punto turbo. will try find link for it

[hendrix]

haha great idea ben, i might even buy a number myself. 1 in 49, not bad!
Didnt someone do this with their house too? lol

[Dpnova]

i bet ones of bens mates win :cool:

[hendrix]

The only problem is the system is up for abuse unless you issue the numbers before the lotto draw.

[Jack]

I'd have thought the number could be emailled, or attached to a paypal receipt. Only problem is you might end up with a load of people buying at the last minute; I've not looked at the end date though, is there a decent leeway between the auction end and lotto draw?

I think its quite a good idea!

[Matt2107]

Not a bad idea Ben... if it works.

[Stuart]

hmm might do the nova like that too lol

someone did sell a house that way.. they made ?500K and the house was worth ?180K lol

[Adam]

Lol,cool idea.

Might be worth a go, you get about ?1200 and someone gets the car for ?25, everyones a winner,Lol.

[Riggy]

except for the 48 other people lol :thumb:

top idea though

[draper]

i read this before i went to work this morning, brilliant idea ben hope they all sell, id have a go if work overtim e1 night this week lol

[Ben]

With Fees etc taken out as theres 49 ots of fees as each one is a sale, i walk away with about ?1100.

I am hoping a lot of people i know will take the chance and buy the ticket but how can i influence it in any way? They get the number in any order they buy it and if i could influence which ball is going to come out the lottery machine then i certainly wouldnt be sat here chatting now i can asure you.

Like i say as long as 49 numbers go the car WILL be won otherwise refunds will be issued before the draw as it ends on the Thursday.

[hendrix]

wont you actually lose money though if you have to offer 25 quid refunds?

[Matt2107]

I'm thinking about having a go.

[General Baxter]

what if 49 people dont buy numbers, will there be a roll over and you get 2 cars. lol

[Mike]

what will you do if two poeple have the same number?

[hendrix]

they can't have the same number, there are only 49 available slots.

[novaco]

love the idea ben..hope all goes to plan..

lmfao at baxter!

[Ben]

If you refund back through paypal you dont pay the fee's.
