Thanks for the suggestion, and we agree that a raffle would indeed raise more money than a straight up auction. BT's mydonate didn't appear to offer the features we needed to run a raffle so we've set up a JustGiving account instead. The only issue we can see with running a raffle is that donations are in return for something, and for this reason the donation isn’t eligible for Gift Aid. If anyone has any better ideas please add them to this thread, otherwise we'll get the page up and running tomorrow afternoon.Would it be possible to just say your running 1 mile or something like that?. at the end you will pick someone for a free prize? that way you might be able to get the gift aid? Cant you just say your running 1 mile for charity, once its ended you will pick someone for a free prize? might be able to get gift aid that way?

Magnificent effort. Bravo. Alittlebird- i know the person who owns the Banksy caged Tweety that is your avatar. Have seen it in person in his home. It's truly incredible. That's cool. Even though I believe it's a prop, I've always wanted the mask inside the glass dome that sits next to him while speaking on Exit Through the Gift Shop.

My birthday is May 26. I've already instructed anyone who was planning to give me a gift to hold on and buy raffle tickets instead! Well done Delloy, Laz, Donors and Bidders. This has been a great thing to be a part of.

This has been a great thing to be a part of. I did not understand one word about Laz statement, donation, and tickets. So what is happening ? Buy tickets for what ? To buy a tenner ?

To buy a tenner ? details are still being worked out, but it looks like it's gonna be a raffle to win the two tenners and a copy of Outsiders. similar to how @andy raffled off the Silver Flags print

Laz is offering up 2 Di faced tenners and a book for the Nepal charity. Was going to go on the forum as bids, but now going to raffle like Andy did with the silver flags last year. It should raise a lot more funds, but also gives everyone a chance

From a quick internet search, one more wrinkle is that it looks like Gift Aid also only applies to donations made by UK taxpayers. For what's it worth, my suspicion is that keeping the raffle open to non-UK taxpayers will bring in quite a bit more for the charity than the tax-back claim.

This does not apply to some as Im still waiting for 11 items to be paid for, hence these people have no shipping details as yet. Thankyou. I understand. I have two more to send. Life is not easy sometimes : I am making good - I guess lol - drawings, I mean that I make attention, and because of this I have to find all my inks, pen ,pastels, etc etc. who where some in my kids affairs.since years ( thanks for this charity who gave forces to paint again ) .., Then one ink was too watered and the other bottle too dry, I had to use cola, one item ( I all repair ) have been damaged about rain, and I had to spray again the cardboard , but there was not enough spray can and yesterday was bank holiday, so I had to go to buy one during my work today, but I had lost my wallet earlier dis morning ... So At 8 am I have been to post an item to an American friend , but when I was going to pay, no more wallet, I was working so I had to take my bike, quitting my job and go back home to find my wallet, no wallet , I was desperate. My kid was sleeping. The postman did not want to keep the big enveloope, No mire money .. So i Gad to borrowed to colleagues , and to go back to the post office and to pay it ( lol the package was more expensive than 2 hours ago , maybe the sew and the stress ) , then I got a phone call ( miracle !!! ) , a woman doctor found my alley and I had to take my bike again and to pass at his office, it was nearly 12 am and I had to go to make food to my kid , then bike again, and return to the job etc etc.., all this to say that sometimes , it's not easy to sell his own stuff on eBay when you promise to make in real time some gifts. Phew ! :-) One were posted, the two other ones are for friends also, so they will have too nice drawings and I am sure they understand me and that they will be very pkeased of their artworks : quality for the cheapest price of the planet !thank you for your understanding. Roy :-) Ps : now I am in bed, the back broken and I am working again tomorrow. Monday morning the two others will be sent ... Must I show some drawings ? Just to show how busy I am , this pic ( in progress as saying street-artists :-)

We had an unplanned surgical procedure done at the whl10 house this week. Everything is fine but I have not sent out my item yet. Will do so early this coming week. I am sorry that I didnt meet your deadline and will donate the money myself (on top of the donated item) if the buyer makes a stink at all about it. If any of you bought a signed stik showcard and are wondering why you didnt get shipping notice yet, see above. Thanks.

I dont think they are a member here whl10. I need this done asap please. I need to clear these ebay sales ready for the next round. The buyer will be panicking This applies to everyone who still has to ship. (apart from the ones who Im still waiting for payment) It has been 6 days since auction end, if it was your item Im sure you would be worried too. I dont like to hassle people (ie go all "Bob Geldof" circa live aid on you) on this as everyone has made a great effort to get to where we are now, but this really needs to be sorted please. Im starting to get messages in from concerned buyers. Thankyou for your co-operation. The quicker we can get this done the quicker we can move on to the next round of auctions Namaste D

We have 10 buyers who have yet to pay. If any of them are reading this, please pay up ASAP. Remember this is for charity and we'd like to get the funds over to Nepal ASAP. If you're not planning on paying, we'll have to file an unpaid item claim and leave negative feedback on your account. Luckily, we have round 2 of the auction coming up so we can relist the items and try to sell them again. If you still want the items you won, pay up now, otherwise we have to assume you don't want the item(s) you won, and you will be blocked from bidding on Round 2. in better news - there are some AMAZING pieces donated for round 2. Stay tuned
