Wow. So much work for a raffle. I thought raffles were random. Pick a name and assign it against an item.

 

We like to make it more fun.

 

(More fun means more work)

You can put down random numbers for your list if you want.

I did nothing last time, won a raffle prize, and still ended up with a pretty good gift.

you sound like an employer

 

less pay means more creativity when spending your check

The way we do it, most of the people will end up with probably a Top Ten pick...

 

As opposed to randomly assigning prizes and giving everyone something they might not necessarily want.

So 5% of people did not have Greggy's box in their list?

 

 

I've never had the pleasure of interacting with greggy. He remains a mythical person who is spoken of in circles with soft whispers and an eye on the surroundings waiting for him to appear.

 

I certainly plan to perhaps make a purchase from him, something so that i too can say, I have dealt with this great man and then I will be able to properly rank his raffle prize.

 

Until then, I don't know what I would be in for and having no information is not a pleasant feeling to have....

 

perhaps if I summon this greggy, he will appear and educate me.

 

greggy, where art thou?

 

(looking into mirror).....greggy...greggy...greggy....

Out of curiosity, do you recall the furthest you had to go on anyone's list last year? I remember reading through the thread at one point but don't remember this answer. Please don't look it up...just wondering if anyone remembers off the top of their head.

I remember having to go to #28 toward the end...

Man, I can't believe that the Spider-Woman 1 is so popular

[krighton]

list I got was pretty difficult, couldn't find anything in LCS or book stores....very specific list of items.

In all seriousness though I'm very curious. I never bought nor won anything from him so my interest in piqued. For a mystery box to be such an overwhelming favorite with such awesome prizes, I'm guessing he's super generous or is giving out some kick stuff.

[greggy]

I throw in a bunch of junk that I don't really want.

 

That's all you need to know.

 

If you're nice, I might even tailor it towards your collecting interest.

Pics of the greggy box from a few years back. I ended up buying it from the winner later on as part of a fundraiser thread...

All those books were books were in Greggy's bathroom before he off loaded them to you.
