I have not seen that house lottery thing before, if you have the link for that and information about it could you share it? That would make this one much more believable and more people could join in if they knew he did something like this before and actually went with it or not.
I am not against actually getting a lambo anywhere in the world, that is the marketing stand point but the problem is what they are suggesting as price of a lambo is not the price of a lambo in many places in the earth, there are no brand new lambo sellers in some countries too so you have to ship it there and considering all these plus taxes as well, it just doesn't make any sense to me. Just give the bitcoin worth of the car and be done with it, simple as that. Just give the person money instead of lambo and prove it here by both the OP and the winner.
Topic: Win a Lamborghini for 0.00056 BTC - page 7. (Read 16869 times)
The problem here is not that if its worth it or not. For a chance to win lambo spending just 0.00056 is basically nothing, you can buy even multiple tickets to win it because the reward is just so damn high. There are two problems with this lottery that is the reason why its not a global phenom already, first is maybe the winner doesn't want the lambo but the amount of money, not everywhere in the world lambo is the same amount so asking for bitcoin instead of lambo would be a great option to add, freebitcoin has a lambo deal as well and they will give 200k in bitcoin to whoever wins it instead of lambo (at least give that option). Another issue is we are still not sure how trustworthy OP is, I mean he had never done something like this before so how could we trust him?
The OP held a similar contest before with a house and he basically doxed himself with a photo somewhere in the first page of this thread.
I agree that it would make more sense to just give the value of the car instead of actually buying it. Since the car won't be purchased until the contest is over and purchased in the winners country of origin then it might be possible. However I didn't read the terms and not sure.
Some contests don't allow to take a cash settlement because they use the car with a winner present in the photo for publicity reasons.
However like you mentioned before the price of cars varies country to country and it might impact the final price and what percentage the OP will take as profit for holding this contest.
Say if he chooses a winner from USA then he will have more profit than a winner from say Australia since the cars cost more there.

If the OP is saying the truth then this would really be worth to join it would only take 0.00056BTC just to join the raffle .
It is a small price for a huge win but for sure there would be a lot of ticket so the chance is to small too.
Although it is a small price, I wonder how much money you will use to buy that ticket because I don't think that you can win that prize unless you are a very lucky person in gambling.It is a small price for a huge win but for sure there would be a lot of ticket so the chance is to small too.
It is hard to win the prize with only 1 ticket, and we know that too.
I guess that many people will buy the ticket as much as they can because the prizes are very expensive.
The trouble here is not the idea, the idea is great and if its done properly it would both make the operator rich all of a sudden and it would totally give the winner a lambo so there is no losing on this, maybe people who bought a ton of tickets and didn't won could be upset but that is about it, everybody else who got max couple of tickets would be fine with the result too.
The problem here is the fact that the owner is not very active and he just doesn't care about this topic, we do not trust him, if you are looking for lambo+expenses+profit type of amount for your lottery than you need to be trustworthy and you need to make everyone believe you are telling the truth.
Look at freebitco.in they have exactly the same thing, they are giving away lambo and they are going to sell tickets for it and I can guarantee you I will buy those tickets the first second it comes up because I trust them, not OP.

At the start of the thread and if you check the link, the OP did prove he is the same guy who previously ran a sucessful lotto like this. I recommended posting more then one, maybe holding todays newspaper with your Bitcointalk id on the front page and so on. I think its legit tbh

Yea I did think the price was just frozen but actually the price to enter changes depending on BTC worth at that point in timeIt is a small price for a huge win but for sure there would be a lot of ticket so the chance is to small too.
This is a great chance for members who are in the UK and win a lambo now. I'm not saying it's a scam, but the OP has posted proof in the first page when someone ask for it. So this could be legit and we will know everything in four months time.
I would like to join, unfortunately, I lived outside of Europe and I don't want the head ache of paying huge tax here (could be the same amount of that lambo!). But I'm going to root for my fellow bitcointalk users to win it.

I just saw a newspaper article on the house lottery for a million dollar riverside residence/mansion and how it turned into a cash draw. will post shortly. Here we go, found it in my browser history from national newspaper in UK and this is for a lottery regulated by UK law. It does sound a bit off in the details ( I wouldn't be happy either) but basically they didnt sell enough tickets in this scenario:

Made researches about the house lottery and I thought so that lottery is legitimate. But, I'm really don't know about this one. What if somebody tried to used the person who won the lottery to that house and just put his face in this lottery. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-6911209/Couple-failed-raffle-Mega-Home-property-sale-2-5m.html

The difference between a home and this system (even though I do not like to actually sound like I am defending OP because I don't know him and wouldn't defend some stranger) we can end it whenever we want. So, lets assume I put my home on a raffle, if I give a deadline than I have to give the house to someone eventually, however if I say "the raffle will end when all tickets are sold" than I do not have to worry about losing money at all.
This couple missed that chance, if they opted for the second option they could have waited years if they have to and than give the home to the winner but they had a deadline and that is their trouble. OP here basically said it will continue forever until all tickets are sold and when they are all sold he will have money to buy a lambo for the winner.

This is a cool promotion to be honest but can you show us the proof that you will really give the Lambo to the lucky winner in August 2019?
Transparency is always been preferred but it seems op have no interest to show it all. lolI guess you will need to trust that he is the one shown in those articles linked in here. Or maybe we can authenticate his picture via those news sources? Telegraph is that? Maybe he can ask them to do this. But I think he will not want that, since he says he will not release to press yet without fiat incoming.

Yup it's cool but hope that it would really go well ,I hope that we could be updated on things about the raffle and how much did they raised already.
And I hope they could post the winner of the draw in this thread once it is done.

And this situation would really be just the same on this one if they wouldnt able to reach out sufficient ticket being sold. No draw would surely happen yet https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-6911209/Couple-failed-raffle-Mega-Home-property-sale-2-5m.html
funds would be used on purchasing that Lambo is primarily needed.If theres no participants then it will definitely 100% surely fail.Surprise me.

Its regulated thats the point, thats the thing to check if you are really concerned. I spotted another similar raffle in the news today, not UK but this one is in France, of course that regulation could also get in the way but generally its going to be a point in your favour as the consumer -
French law is different to UK on these matters, generally UK is more open but its a similar kind of deal to sell which can be good for both parties depending on the odds given I guess

Raffle is not my kind of thing even if you the items to be won look flashy because the probability of one winning is insignificant and to me it is a waisting of money no matter how small is the amount.

In 2017 I sold my house for £2 by selling 500,000 raffle tickets, one winner was chosen and the house was given away as a prize - media coverage here:

We also donated £40,000 to local charities and we helped kickstart a small raffle revolution (see here for more raffles) https://www.loquax.co.uk/win-a-house.htm.
Fast forward to today and we are launching a new raffle to win a Lamborghini : https://www.winalambo.net
Through this we hope to help more good causes and also to start a small business offering more prizes on a regular basis.
There are multiple payment options to buy a ticket, BTC, LTC, XRP and many more.

Is there anyone who already won the lambo? It's too much of a prize for a raffle draw. Anyways, I hope you're not going to scam people.
I do not understand why it has to be a lambo, I know the whole purpose of the website is a lambo but why not just give the lambo money ?
In my country car taxes are so high that even with the full ticket prices and all of it sold you can't buy a lambo, what are the owners of the website thinking about doing in that case, since lambo has no place here and you have to both get it shipped (none exists here for brand new, you can only buy second hand here) if you want to get a brand new one and that purchasing and shipping and paying taxes and putting proper regulations on it all together costs probably around twice on my country for a brand new lambo than in many european countries.
So, instead of actually trying to get a lambo why not just give the winner lambo amount and tell everyone you paid lambo amount in certain country and be done with it? Sounds easier and doubt anyone will care.
