I'm going to mix it up a bit.

My offer is this.  The person will get to choose one of eight Marvel Omnibi and in addition to that book they will receive a half a dozen trade paperbacks and a few comics related to the book chosen.

I'm sorry but this will be domestic shipping only, and unlike past performances, this will ship in very timely manner.

Question, should be there a suggested value donation?  I mean it would be like a school fundraiser where all raffle tickets are $50.  It wouldnt be fair if someone got in with a $20 ticket right? 

I don't think anyone responded, so I will!

This is a great question people should ask themselves as they join. Just like any holiday some give to be generous, some gift so they can get, and many are a mixture of both. But I would hate for someone to stay out if they think their gifts are not as "valuable" as those offered. It's O Henry come to life. (shrug)

Look at last year's entries to get an idea--this generally isn't an issue.

Plenty of variety in these donations and that is fine. Some people donate prizes that may value a couple hundred dollars (these are generally chosen first), others prizes in the $50-100 range and some less. And besides it’s not always about the dollar value. Someone may have a $50 book or package that someone really wants over say a $100 gift card. 
 

I think as long as your prize isn’t a bunch of tattered coverless 90s comics as part of your “mystery box” donation, then whatever you come up with will be loved by someone!

So, you want to know a secret?

This thread, this raffle (more specifically last year's raffle) was the thread that made me want to get a CGC account.  I arrived here too late to actually join last year's raffle, but I saw it, and it just looked like so much fun.  And I thought, well, I guess I can go ahead and join now, and then, maybe next year?  And here we are!  

My problem is that, even 30 years later, I am still overly possessive of my comics, even the worthless ones.  And this despite the fact I don't actually own anything of particularly high value.  It all early to mid-80s stuff. 

But nevertheless, I have scoured the collection, looking deep.  And I believe I have come up with something I can bear to part with.   So allow me to present for your consideration:

One lightly used copy of The Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe, Issue 12.  Featuring Wolverine! 

Come, learn the history of (some of) your favorite characters!

:acclaim:

 

 

 

And also, $100 Amazon gift card.

But we all know what the real prize here is.

How strange is it that mystery boxes are so popular here, but banned the rest of the year.

Its a mystery :bigsmile:
