Audi A4 1.8T Quattro for $50!

Well I actually went through with this and decided to start the giveaway I had planned a while back.

I am raffling of my 1998.5 Audi A4 1.8tqm. There will be ONLY 400 tickets at $50 USD. To protect the buyers, payment will only be accepted through paypal, via a bid on eBay. This way it will be public knowledge of who is part of the contest for the bidders. The draw will be live on SJIRadio.com, and will be broadcast over a webcast from one of our servers that can support 400 viewers watching the video. If your interested please check out the below auction, or simply email me info@SJIRadio.com

Yes, and the money is refunded. Paypal transactions can be reversed upto 30 days after at no charge. This is the reason I am requesting paypal payment ONLY. Its for the security of the bidders

The car hasn't been abused, but even paying $50 for a POS civic, I'd still do it if the odds were reasonable, such as they are in this instant.

It is the test of luck. If you feel lucky, you should do it.

Thats a really good Idea, but 400 will be hard to sell, what other methods are you using to promote it?

Probably advertising on his radio station. The good thing is, it's FREE coz he won't charge himself!

It's a great idea! Good luck, hopefully you sell all 400 tickets!

We are promoting it in just a couple of forums. The auciton has over 770 hits already. We'll see how it goes.
