How do these "processing" fees work?
$7.90 for 2x $50 ($100) tickets seems acceptable.
$15.80 (double) for 2x $75 ($150) tickets seems ridiculous though.
Quoted from Londonpinball:How many tickets do they sell a year.
200 per game, 10 games, just a guess, don’t jump all over me
2000@8$
16k a year for processing. Cough
I might wait for this issue to be solved before I purchase another ticket.
Ticket master is handling the transactions
Seriously though. If these fees were going to charity I wouldn't care so much but I seriously doubt it. At least lay out how the fees are tallied. It's pretty random.
Attention Project Pinball
Are you aware that current raffles are no longer displayed on your homepage? I know about them though pinside but my friends were completely unaware of the Premium raffle and wondered what happened to the Pro raffle. The links on your homepage are gone. You should get them back on the front page to draw attention. Good luck. Take care. Keep up the good work.
Quoted from Mole:We have Pinball Raffles listed under Pinball Raffle Tab on our Home Page. Are you saying that those links were not working? Can you clarify for me? I just completed testing those links and they were working fine for me.
Thank you,
Daniel Spolar
When I click on raffles, it only shows previous winners. I'm not techy enough to tell you any more. It used to be there until monstwr bash 2 ended.
Glad to see tickets selling. Good stuff.
Quoted from Project_Pinball:Special Raffle Updates!
Since including The Munsters pinball machine to both our Pro and Premium Raffles we have seen a tremendous amount of support in our raffles! Thank you all so much for your shares, kind words, comments, likes, and more! We are so very grateful for all of our incredible followers and supporters! #forthekids

My fees for all the ticket I've purchased have been as follows
2x $50 = $7.90
2x $50 = $7.90
2x $75 = $15.80
4x $50 = $15.80
Shouldnt it be a set transaction fee no matter what the amount?
I didnt buy any raffle tickets. The charity I choose to donate to happens to hold raffles. 1 raffle ticket for every $50 donated. The charity does pinball related work with children so the raffles are often for pinball machines.
Creative phrasing = tax loopholes
Quoted from setzkor:That's between you and your auditor as raffle tickets are specifically mentioned as not allowed in the instructions for schedule A. You can however deduct them as gambling losses assuming you are also claiming winnings. So when you win, you can then deduct the cost of other non-winning tickets purchased.
Ahh, check that, I see you are from Canada...have no idea what your tax rules are.
I get something like 15% back so I'm covering the transaction fees lol
Premium is sold out
Pro has 19 tickets left
Glad to see people are still going forward. Fees problems are being addressed. Let's focus on the positive.
Quoted from Daditude:Do they do the drawings one at a time or do they wait for both to fill before drawing?
The drawing tonight is for the 2018 pro raffle.
Not sure if they will draw the 2019 pro and premium together. (11 tickets left for the pro raffle)
If someone could post the link to where I can watch the live drawing at 8pm that would be great thanks.
Quoted from Daditude:What machine is the 2018 pro raffle? I didnt see that one.
Any 2018 Stern pro.
Raffle pic was of an Iron Maiden. It's already one of the 2 pins i own though. I really like a Star Trek actually. Deadpool may be my 2nd choice for available pro models.
Is there a Wonka raffle in the works?
I always get 2 tickets for the Stern Pro raffles but I'd go in on a Wonka raffle as well.
Quoted from fosaisu:I think there was only ever one JJP raffle, many years ago (Hobbit if memory serves).
I've played that Hobbit. The winner is in my league up here in Canada.Finger crossed for Wonka raffle.
Quoted from davijc02:Can we all agree it’s my turn to win?
Good luck everyone!
Canada hasn't won one in a few years.....just saying
Edit: Pro is sold out. Draw this weekend perhaps. I'll take a Star Trek please.
Quoted from gac:Just a saying... meaning don't jinx yourself. Don't pick your prize before you've won it. Anyway, Good Luck!!
I've bought enough tickets to these draws where my luck must already be pretty crappy lol. Good luck to you as well as it's all charity money. Winning a pinball machine would be nice to though
Quoted from meSz:25 years since Canada has been in the Finals.....wait you're not talking hockey???
I am never talking hockey.
On that note....how many Canadian players were on the winning teams? Its bred into us. At age 3 we send our children into the wilderness with nothing but the clothes on their backs, some snow shoes, a canteen of maple syrup and a hockey stick. If they survive the winter they are real Canadians and we send them off to the Americas where money is thrown at them from age 18 to 35. Then they retire back to Canada
I've never won anything but I buy 2 tickets for every pro raffle (this is the first one I missed out on in a while)
When I can swing it, I also grab 1 ticket for premium draws.
Quoted from CanadianPinball:project_pinball Do you have a link to the draws?
Follow their YouTube channel
Draws are usually held on the Sundays after a raffle sells out
I missed out on the next pro raffle
Just grabbed some tickets for the premium and Elvira draws though.
I've got to win eventually.......right? Lol.

Idk if you are worried about seeming like it is spamming or something but you should always throw up a post in the thread of whatever machine you are currently raffling off for charity. I've posted links to project pinball in both the Elvira and Jurassic Park threads
Omg if I've ever needed a win, it's now lol. Currently riding a shit wave of bad luck. It can only mean I'm the next Project Pinball winner right?
Quoted from Dee-Bow:Horrible advice. Ask pinstadium fans how that works out. Just keep doin what you're doing guys! No need to change what isn't broken.
A charity pinball raffle that supports childrens hospitals is NOT the same a shilling overpriced led strips.
Quoted from Dee-Bow:TROLL! Take it somewhere else
Really? How so? You brought up pinstadium so I used it in my rebuttal. This is a charity thread. Bring your hostility down a bit.
21 tickets left in the premium draw. Unlikely but would be cool to have a double draw this weekend.
https://projectpinball.rallyup.com/jurassicparkpremium-pinballmachineraffle
Quoted from Amarillopinball:Just 9 left now. But I kinda want the premium drawing to be later so I still have something to look forward to.
There's is still the pro raffle if you are looking for prolonged excitement
I have a ticket in the premium and the Elvira. I'd like to have 2 drawings tomorrow. It'll make me feel like I have a better chance lol.
My son would loose his mind if we got a JP. He is 6 and LOVES when the trex eats the ball in the data east JP (which he surprisingly achieved in his first game). He hasn't even seen the stern JP yet.
Quoted from Project_Pinball:The Elvira LE Live Drawing is slightly delayed! It is still coming! Thank you all for your patience and understanding!
No worries. You've made my son happy as he was told he could stay up to see the draw.
Edit: he didnt make it lol
Quoted from Project_Pinball:Due to unforeseen circumstances the Jurassic Park Premium Pinball Machine Raffle is postponed until tomorrow night at 8 PM EST! Thank you all so much for supporting and for your patience! Tomorrow night one lucky winner will be walking away an owner of a brand-new Stern Premium pinball machine!
As long as its because you needed to double check the spelling of my name
Quoted from newovad:Watched my number spinning on the bottom, facing the camera. Sadly, did not win. Congrats to the winner, Spooky and Project Pinball for a fun Sunday anyway.
Were you 25? I remember thinking I wouldnt want to be 25. I was so close this time I could see my name on the list. Always a bridesmaid lol
Quoted from John_I:I got a ticket in the Premium raffle. Will be a tough choice between JP and STH.
Tweet tweet tweet Jurassic Park tweet tweet
^^little bird^^
...and another 2 on the normal pro draw for good measure. Eventually i WILL hear my name drawn dang it
Quoted from Project_Pinball:Our Win a Pinball Machine Stern Pro Model 20-101 has officially Sold Out!
You all pushed this to sell out so quickly.
We will be doing the live drawing this Sunday, July 12th at 8:00 pm EST
Stay Tuned to see who our next lucky winner will be!
#projectpinball #forthekids
Another evening of "will this be the one " lol
Statistically it has to happen sometime.
2yrs of pro draws (2 tickets per draw) and a couple premium entries here and there and the closest ive come to winning was seeing my name on the sheet a few rows away from a winner one time lol
Alright twist my arm, im in for a premium as well. I tend to just buy tickets for the pro draws but damn i want that Thanos cabinet
Quoted from fosaisu:I think they did a Hobbit drawing years ago, but otherwise no JJPs that I can remember.
They did. It went to a member of my league here in Ontario.
Quoted from Baiter:Owl wishes he won
I saw my mistake once i watched the video. Sorry Owl.
Congratulations to the winner though!!

Is tspp only available to expo attendees? Does it ship like any other Stern raffle?
Quoted from gecko157:Good luck I’ve been saying that for 4 years no win yet lol one of these days
Same. Dozens and dozens of tickets purchased. With the luck I have with raffles, I'll buy these for the rest of my life and never win lol
Quoted from Fezmid:Psst, I'll let you in on a secret way to GUARANTEE a win.... simply buy 200 tickets and BAM, new Stern coming your way!

Oh shoot, I missed this one
Quoted from ruzeo:Toys for tots fundraiser was first raffle I've seen that went off with less than 200 people in it. Sorry I missed it.
Is the 50/50 raffle being advertised anywhere besides the email ? Doesnt look like its moved much in 2 weeks.
The site wasn't accurate at 108 though. There were 130 sold I believe. Still under 200 though
Quoted from Project_Pinball:Our JAWS Limited Edition Pinball Machine Raffle is now LIVE!
Enter today before this sells out.
Limited to 200 entries
$130 per entry
Thank you all so much for your support and we wish you the very best!

59% in a hr lol wow
I've got a ticket in all 3 current Stern raffles.
One day...one day (fingers crossed)
Quoted from JHS71:Over 10% processing fee, come on now.
Hmm, you are correct. That's weird. There must have been an error.
$5.20 on $130 LE
$3.80 on $95 Premium
$7.25 on $70 Pro
Quoted from JHS71:$7.25 on pro ticket.
There must have been an error setting up this draw. It should be more like $3.25
Quoted from jrcmlc:so only the pro was effed
Seems that way.
LE draw this weekend. Maybe a premium draw as well. It's around 80% sold right now
Quoted from ASAC_Schrader:From what I saw it will be Feb 4th
No that's when the draw would have ended. They always do the first Sunday after a draw sells out but the premium draw only sold out yesterday so I'm not sure if they are drawing it tonight or next weekend
Quoted from Goyomex:Where can we see the video of the drawing? Was set for 8pm EST tonight - 30+ mins ago.
Idk where you saw that. It's at 8pst, so 11est
Quoted from ASAC_Schrader:Go to their site. thats what it says.
Yeah, what do I know lol
Quoted from ASAC_Schrader:This whole thing is a mess. Was unclear when it would happen. Drawing with an app?!?!? When I bought a ticket it said Godzilla.
I AM DONE WITH THIS
You've never been in this thread u til an hr ago and you clearly don't understand what you are talking about so...goodbye?
Congrats to Ian but this was an anticlimactic place to find out.
I was 117.
Next time. Next time.
Quoted from Lethal_Inc:Just so I know my money went to a good cause, after the purchase of a LE machine for the winner of the raffle, does the balance go to a certain hospital or towards the purchase of another machine for a certain hospital? The amount raised is enough to buy 2 games so just curious.
It's all on their website.
Quoted from StoneyCreek:Keep on keepin on! After 4 years I finally won a raffle. you can too!
Boom! This guy.
Congratulations.
Wasn't there a draw last night? I can't find anything
Edit: double draw?
The pro draw from last week was never posted on YouTube either.
I like watching the live drawings when possible.
Quoted from gandamack:Hey, just to mix things up for a bit: is there any chance we could have a Lumaleggz raffle?
I had to Google this and ew. No. Just no.
