    When's the deadline Mark? If it can wait till late July I'll take at least 10 tickets. If you need the coin before then--I might be able to arrange that, too?

    I'll edit the thread but I figure I'll run this for the month of July and on the 31st draw the names. This should allow everyone who wishes to donate, time to do so and should be a pretty cool buffer overall.

    Thanks to everyone who has donated so far, it's very much appreciated.

    If anyone has hesitation or questions about this charity raffle, as I know it's unorthodox, simply contact me directly via PM or Polk Audio corporate email. Both of them are linked when you highlight my name to the left.

    I do but would appreciate the "Gift" option so it doesn't charge me. TY BUGZ! PM me for a PP addy.

    All transactions will be compiled publically at the end of the month....no names, just for those that are interested.

    Thanks BB for handlin' up, and kudos (again) for the selfless act from the Leno-chinned, human cartoon above.

    One day I'll make it back to Jersey to visit that **** Tony Rome. Looking forward to seeing the new wing at the center from Polkies. THIS is what's it's all about.

    Thanks folks....will close it today but not actually draw anything for another week or so. I've received some late checks and I want to ensure everyone is entered.
