The Single Cohiba Siglo VI Tubos Raffle (Soon)

[Montesmoke]

To all members im thinking on placing a raffle for a single Cohiba Siglo VI Tubos on the forum.

http://www.cliparthost.com/accounts/wonderland/picturesofstix/Cohiba_Siglo_VI_T.JPG

Each member will have to Enter for ?1
Before i place the auction i need to know how many of you will want to participate in the raffle before i go ahead with it.
If there is more than 20 members who want to play i will then go ahead & then i will ask for the raffle entry cost of ?1 from each of you either by cheque/postal order.
But if there is less than 20 members the Raffle won't go ahead. (Need to cover the cost of the Siglo & P+P to the winner)
So if your interested in participating in the Siglo VI raffle please place your name in this section of the forums


EVEN THOUGH I HAVE REACHED THE MINIMUM ENTRIES, I WILL WAIT 2 WEEKS TO DO THE DRAW, TO GIVE OTHER MEMBERS A CHANCE TO PARTICIPATE.
THANKS.

I would rather a cheque or postal order for the raffle entry fees.

Please send me PM for address to send cheque or postal order.

The Winner Wildwood!! well done mate.

Kind Regards

Monte.

[cohibaIV]

I'm in for a pound!!

[Robusto]

I'll splash one in there!

[Wildwood]

Embracing risk keeps you young they say (though personally, I think embracing the young is pretty risky as well)...so in an effort to slow the signs of premature aging...yes, I'm in for a pound!! :D

Wildwood

[Deano]

I'm in

[cohibaIV]

In fact, stick me down for two go's (?2) if you don't get enough in...

[Deano]

Stick me down for three

[RhiannonBW]

I'm in too, and so is my husband, so that makes two of us.

Rhiannon

[Fratton]

Hmmm - ?1. Put me down for 70p and I'll se if I can find someone to stump up 30p for the butt!:D

OK - I'm in

[Robusto]

:D:D in for ?2

[cohibaIV]

Hey, will you lot pack it in...I am on the verge of going to ?4....


hehehehe..only joking..

[SmokinCohibas]

I am in for ?2 Monte.

[smokiejoe]

i will go and throw in ?2 and will even use the stubb in a rizzla.lol.

[rokkitsci]

Throw in ?5 for the underprivileged Yank, please.

[Drewmidorn]

Put me in for a ticket! I'm an internet klutz...how do I pay?

Drew

[larrysputnik]

I'll ante up. Can I send it through, or do you prefer some other method of payment?

P.S. Since I live in the states, if I were to win I would like you to send it over to Deano as a gift for starting and maintaining this fine web site. That way you wouldn't have to be concerned with all of the customs cloaking you would need to do to mail it to the US.

[Montesmoke]

Hi Larry,
Thats a nice gesture, but no trouble sending to the states, its up to you anyway, some members are paying more to have a better chance some have paid ?2 upwards. ie.. if you pay ?2 you get 2 tickets with your name in the hat & so on.
I wont be taking any money yet, will do in the next week or 2, will let you all know when i need the entry money.

Monte.

[larrysputnik]

Ok, count me in for 2 tix.

[Wildwood]

Hi Monte,

What are you going to do with all the excess cash? I'm thinking coach trip to Cuba with BennyTours perhaps? :D

Seriously though, are you going to have a second prize? Or maybe run this raffle regularly - for example, I'd be happy to stick in more money as an "account" so that I could enter more raffles without making lots of separate payments. What do you think?

Anyway, please put me in for ?2 (rather than the one I offered earlier) for this one ...a vain effort to compete with all the obviously well-off forum members... :) Also to make me feel marginally less silly writing a cheque for just ?1!

Must admit, I prefer the idea of a raffle like this rather than having to post off cigars and risk the vagaries of the Royal Mail. Probably me just being lazy though...

Great idea anyway, and thanks for running with it.

Best,

Wildwood

[Montesmoke]

Starting off with this raffle to see how it goes.
This is for one prize only the siglo VI (as stated on the 1st page) if your paying ?1 - ?10 to enter the raffle & win the siglo VI you have done very well! (as you well know cant get many siglo VI for that price).

If members wish/chooses to place more than the ?1 entry into the raffle to increase their chances of winning its their choice.

However, at the end of the day its the luck of the draw.


(good luck to all members)


If i do another raffle on here i will consider a second place prize.

Kind Regards
Monte.

[smokiejoe]

I agree with wildwood there as a raffle is best as i think this is the best idea yet to have a raffle and at least once moneys have been paid (your in to win).Even better if there are second prize stuff,,,aww like jose piedra,,wink wink wink,,only joking ,,,but on a serious note its the best idea yet,not worried about excess money thats left over as this is a raffel and the more you put in the more chances you have,like monte said where can you get one of these babys for a pound or even ?10,well done monte.:D

[Robusto]

I've paid my ?2 just to get another gripping vid!
Bugger the stogie! :D
Hehehe...

[smokiejoe]

HA HA,,it was like watching sooty and sweep with deans hands going 2 to the dozen.lol.:D:D:D:D

[Wildwood]

Hey, don't misunderstand me guys...I'm not worried about any excess either...hence the big grin smilie and BennyTours joke ...just trying to push the idea forward.

As said, I think it's a great idea and appreciate Monte's efforts. And I'll still feel silly writing a cheque for ?2! :)

Wildwood

[smokiejoe]

Hey i bet you wouldnt feel silly writing a cheque if you won,lol,lol.best of luck mate hope you win.lol.everyone has gotta have a go.:D

[Wildwood]

You're right there Smokiejoe - and I can live with feeling silly, as it seems to happen a fair bit!! :)

Good luck to all you high rollers out there!

Best,

Wildwood

[smokiejoe]

Well ya gotta have a go,maybe next time if andy gets enough members to have a go he might even do a runner up prize which is cool.im a bit glad he came up with this idea as it saves posting cigars as they might not turn up or get dammaged.bloody royal mail

[Gary]

Monte put me in for ?2 and I'll put the payment in with the cigars I'm sending this week if that suits?

[RhiannonBW]

At the risk of appearing dunce-like, how do we pay? I couldn't spot your account name anywhere.

Thanks.
Rhiannon

[SmokinCohibas]

Congratulations Wildwood for winning the Siglo VI in the raffle.

Enjoy mate.

[Wildwood]

WOW! First time I've ever won anything!! The Gods have smiled...:)

Many thanks to all for participating and especially Monte for thinking it up and organising it....really great stuff.

Got a cold at the moment, which has put the kybosh on a cigar today (it'd be a waste)...so was feeling a bit low...and that has really perked me up!!

Best to all,

Wildwood

[larrysputnik]

Congrats!

[Robusto]

Jammy so n so, Wild! :D

[Wildwood]

;)

I'd like to think that good looks, talent and charm also played their part...I'd LIKE to think that, but obviously they didn't...

Just a jammy git really... :cool:

Wildwood

[rokkitsci]

Although I firmly believe that I actually won and that Monte just didn't want to send the damn cigar across the pond so he just kept picking until I didn't win, I offer my hearty congratulations Wildie.

Enjoy!

[Wildwood]

Cheers guys! :)

[smokiejoe]

Its nice to see someone win as you would agree it was worth taken part in the raffle as it would of been a very cheap decent cigar,well done again wildie and tell us all about it mate when you feel better with this cold you have and get round to smoking it,SO THAT WE CAN ALL DRIBBLE.LUCKY BUGGER.LOL.Well done.:D

[Montesmoke]

Although I firmly believe that I actually won and that Monte just didn't want to send the damn cigar across the pond so he just kept picking until I didn't win, I offer my hearty congratulations Wildie.

Enjoy!

If you did win Rokkitsci or Larrysputnik i would of been more than happy to send the cigar to the states, as i know you guys are deprived of cubans.
Talking of cubans did you receive your cigars from the first raffle ok??

Monte.

[rokkitsci]

Monte.

Eck-shoe-alley (how's my pronounciation?) we have spoken of this, Monte.

Remember? My surprise at receving so many tubos of the same cigar...

It's alright, old chap, I fully understand. It's completely natural. As we get a bit long in the tooth, we tend to get confused and forget some things to confuse to forget to forget some things that we tend to forget to forget some things that we tend to confuse to forget.

[cohibaIV]

Congrats Wild mate, and cheers Monte for doing the raffle in the first place...

[Wildwood]

Thanks CohibaIV...I'm looking forward to getting it through the post...have had a few visions of a smug looking postie with MY cigar sticking out from his face though...who says cigar smoking isn't stressful? :D

Wildwood

[Wildwood]

OMG! What a beauty!!

It's arrived as you can probably tell. Got home last night only to discover that it had turned up when my wife was picking Number 1 son up from school...and I had to go to the local sorting office at 7a.m. to collect it. Nail biting stuff!! :D

Monte - you packed it up so well that I couldn't get into it in the car! :) So I've just opened it now at work. It's sitting on my desk calling to me...I think I'm going to find it hard to concentrate today!!

I might save it for when the new baby arrives (if I can resist that long) - what do you think? Don't reckon I'll get my hands on a better quality cigar than the Siglo VI...

Once again folks, many thanks, especially to Monte...but really to all who joined in. I hope you are all lucky yourselves next time...if you know what I mean.

Cheers,

Wildwood
