SlytherinAlex Posted November 14, 2005 Posted November 14, 2005 Due to a clash of dates and a lack of time, I will not be organising a CIN event this year. However if you still would like to help the cause while standing a chance of winning something very special, take a look here and loosen your wallets. Alex. Quote

Slytherin Posted November 14, 2005 Posted November 14, 2005 Thats brilliant alex.I assume you have no objections to anyone else linking to the web page ? Certainly not. Link away. This link may be of more use to Americans & Canadians And once I get the translation done this one will be handy for some of our European friends. Alex. Quote
+AriExplorer Posted November 14, 2005 Posted November 14, 2005 fantastic idea! I've put in my ticket Quote
+Stuey Posted November 14, 2005 Posted November 14, 2005 Daft question alert: If (for example) I wanted to buy 10 tickets, do I just pay £12.00 in one transaction, or do I pay £1.20 ten times? Quote
+Moote Posted November 14, 2005 Posted November 14, 2005 (edited) Daft question alert: If (for example) I wanted to buy 10 tickets, do I just pay £12.00 in one transaction, or do I pay £1.20 ten times? That's what I have done Stuey and addaeda note saying 10 X CIN Draw Milton (aka Moote) Edited November 14, 2005 by Moote Quote
SlytherinAlex Posted November 14, 2005 Author Posted November 14, 2005 fantastic idea! I've put in my ticket Thanks. I'm still wondering why you paid in Euro. But at least it did let me find out that there was a problem with the Euro doante button adding €1,00 postage onto the amount (which I have refunded to you). Alex. Quote
+Molinnis Posted November 14, 2005 Posted November 14, 2005 Brilliant idea for a very worthy cause, 5 tickets bought. Quote
SlytherinAlex Posted November 14, 2005 Author Posted November 14, 2005 (edited) Daft question alert: If (for example) I wanted to buy 10 tickets, do I just pay £12.00 YES{/SIZE=14] Please don't pay multiple lots of £1.20 separately. For every transaction, PayPal (don'tcha just love 'em? ) will take 20p. That's the reason that I pitched the price at £1.20 and not £1.00. So, just put x times £1.20 and lump it all together. I will make sure that you get the correct amount of tickets. Alex. ----------------------------------- In fact anyone who buys 10 tickets actually gets 11 because the paypal charges as less with bulk. -------------------------------------------------- Edited November 14, 2005 by SlytherinAlex Quote

It defaulted to Euro which I thought was odd, but presumed you'd set it up that way to include our continental neighbours. Thanks for the refund on the postage though Quote
Deego Posted November 14, 2005 Posted November 14, 2005 Donation sent , Its a good cause Thanks again Alex Quote

+Stuey Posted November 16, 2005 Posted November 16, 2005 Just nudging this upwards... Good idea...Now, just what could I do with a gold geocoin? Mrs B I bet it never goes into a real cache in the wild. It'll be an Event Only coin at the very least, I bet. Quote

SlytherinAlex Posted November 21, 2005 Author Posted November 21, 2005 (edited) Everyone who has bought tickets should now have had an email telling them their numbers. £546 raised so far. Anyone like to chuck in the odd 4 quid to make it up to £550 ???? Alex. Edited November 21, 2005 by SlytherinAlex Quote
SlytherinAlex Posted November 21, 2005 Author Posted November 21, 2005 OK, ticket shop is now closed. Thanks to everyone - again. - Quote
