5 BUCK CHARGER WEB SITE

Or you could submit an essay, and trade it for a '69 if you win!

Here's an alternative:  take $5, say a prayer that someone gives you a Charger, and bury the $5 on the spot of your prayer.   The odds should be about equal to that of you winning this "contest".

Hey guys, just wanted to thank everyone for the support and address some more questions.... There IS a rule that I won't give the car to my wife or friends... that's why I only have 1 essay so far!  Also, I think having a 3rd party pick the winner is a great idea...  I just need to find someone to do it (like the editor of hot rod or Mopar Muscle, something along those lines.)   I'm just going to keep advertising and see if people are into it.  I'm also going to hit the car shows next week and see how that goes.  I'm really trying to be open and not "fishy"... I just think that this could make some good cash AND really make someone else real happy.... just trying to have some fun with it....BTW, I bought my car in '98 the same way Mike R. did... I bought it from a guy in Minnesota.  I saw pics and video, talked with the guy and then sent him the cash and I got the car a few days later!  Maybe we are just dumb....

Man i would love to write in, if only it was a '69.       

Boy, you know how that just sounded the way you just said that? Parently your not bright, what would you ask for, for $5.00? You could always give it a try and if you win then you could have a '68 that you can maybe trade someone with that has a '69 that wants a '68 instead.

did you not see the pot stir and smilie.... maybe it's you who are not that bright. It's called sarcasm   <---now to explain, the rolling of the eyes is the indication of me not giving a crap.

Hey, I never once said I was the sharpest tool in the dang shad.

It's good that you admit it. I'd hate to think you're the only one here who doesn't know.

Well, if I didn't know, I would simply ask.

i think it's been well known under the radar for quite some time about the TOOL comment.   
as far as the car, i think it should be a FREE essay with the winner getting the car! wonder if you'd get 6600 entries then? i would imagine so, but then there would be no money at the end. what's the fun in that?

I still remember what you said before in one thread.  

Now to rest of you all, now one thing that does come to my mind, sence I haven't ever won anything before, is when you win somthing like a car, is there anykind of tax on that?

[68X426]

Yes.  (disclosure: I am not a tax advisor, CPA, or work for the Man)

I just now notice that in my other reply, I meant to say "Now" but said "Not"   . So I change it.

[bakerhillpins]

Looks like this puttered out and died. The link just redirects to http://www.northforktech.com/ now.

Wonder what killed it. Lack of response or the realization of details?

I'm sure after explaining the deal 1,000,000 times he figured out it was way more work than it was worth.

The legal aspect was also probably a nightmare.

A local car customizer decided he was going to raffle off a car he built and he was going to give the proffits to charity. Well after he figured out the whole legal process and people figured out they were going to have to pay taxes on the price of the car which was the amount he collected for the car people started backing out of the raffle. After realizing he was not going to ba able to find enought people to participate in the raffle by the date that was set he started giving everyone their money back which was also a lot harder than he thought it was going to be.

I'm glad to hear he gave people their money back.

lisiecki1 did they give you a reason or just say here is your money?

[lisiecki1]

From the horses mouth: "hi... this is your money back 5buckcharger.com. I appreciate the support, but at this point, I don't believe I will make the minimum amount of entries. I may try to re-launch the site in the future (with some adjustments) Thanks again for your support and essay! Tom G"
