    Simmer down Colt, remember how long it took us to get our ducks in a row? Wait until Saturday & see whats up them. This guy has legit web sites, forums...etc...I don't think he'll scam us, just think he's busy with life's matters.

    Lets give him the benefit of the doubt.

    I just did quite a bit of research and He has alot of Legit raffles going on right now on other sites. He has help from supporters so I feel it isn't a scam. I know how you feel, you want your ticket. We'll see how it pans out.

    You don't, you just have to have good faith in humanity.

    I bought 10 tickets, and I don't know anyone else who bought that many. I'm poor, its a lot of money to me. Just gotta wait bro.

    Calm down man. I bought 2 tickets and I had sent a PM and stuff, never got a response. Got the tickets several days later. I am sure he he has a lot going on right now. Just wait patiently and see what happens before you start calling out threats and other accusations.

    IT'S NOT ONE TICKET, IT'S 5 TICKETS---I BEGGED HIM TO RESPOMD, AND HE SO FAR HAS NOT UTTERED ONE PEEP. hOW DO I KNOW THIS ISN'T JUST THE TIP OF THE ICEBERG??

    colt have you tried calling him? you should make every attempt possible to reach him before bringing the law into it.

    i understand how you feel though i purchased my tickets on july 26th and still have nothing to show for it. i just hope i receive them before saturday if not he should postpone the drawing.

    OK GUYS< here's the deal----this is a copy of my PM to Chris on 1 aug, at 613 pm. chris has been online twice since then, on 2 aug, and the last time, on 5 aug, and has not responded to my e mail, my PM, nor my post. ON 5 aug , it was apparent that some folks were getting concerned, and yet on the 5th, he said nothing. here is my Pm to him on ! aug>>>>> I don't think I was being offensive or insulting. If anyone thinks so, please point out the error of my ways

    Colotaholic, I think you have a legitimate complaint and I agree, it would worry me as well. Come tomorrow, we should know. But the problem is, people like you that haven't recieved their tickets.

    I emailed Chris last night and here is the email that came in a few minutes ago. He asked if I would post this for him. I think this should help with any concerns. I will keep them in my prayers, especially their little angel.

    Allan sorry for the delay, we ran into a few complications (daughter’s pneumonia got worse) so I’ve been back and forth with the DR and insurance company. Could you do me a HUGE favor and make a post there on my behalf asking everyone who’s not received a ticket to email me at this address and give me their email address that they used for paypal and I’ll email them their tickets. Even if I need to take a picture of each one and email it to them. I’m not trying to avoid any of this but my family has to have first priority of my time right now and If they email me soon today I’ll have their ticket numbers in hand asap (today sometime) Thanks again for your support and prayers it means a lot.

    Here’s your numberxxxxxx

    thanks, gunaddict-------------I also got a PM from Chris, and he assured me that he would look in his log and advise me as to whether he received my check.my prayers are and have been going out for his family

    some theoughts
    1. to avoid any impropriety, or the APPEARANCE of impropriety, these things should be handled by a 3rd party. I do believe that he had several offers of help in this regard, and as far as i know, did not accept the help offered.

    2. My own feelings and finances aside, there seem to be a few more folks than me in the same boat---communication is definately the problem.

    3. Perhaps someone could again offer their assistance in helping him get and stay organised, before these small problems escalate into an ugly situation.If I was there, I'd be first in line.

    4. I have bought more than a few items here, and sold a few--and I've never met a better group of folks. I have the start of some potentially long term friendships started, and I wouldn't want to endanger that by coming across as hitting a guy when he's down. That was not my intent, and I won't let it happen here. I do have a problem with being taken advantage of, but i'm pretty sure that is not the case here, so I'll let it go, and wish Chris the best.

As I've told several of you today that most of my days have been spent in and out of doctors offices, Labs and Insurance agencies. mY Daughter's pneumonia has gotten wrose so my time has been devoted to caring for her,

    ANYONE yet to receive their tickets or numbers PLEASE email me directly so I can take care of this immediately. Thanks!
