Anyone interested in winning a Santa Cruz Heckler?

This is our first one but if this works out we’ll make this a regular thing.
You join on 19th August; your first and, to date, only post is touting a raffle.
Does your post break forum rules? That's one for the mods to assess.
No information about the organiser/promoter; Raffall is just a software platform to host the event.
10,000 tickets @ 80p each, if all are sold, would generate £8k.
5% of host's revenue (how does that differ from gross revenue?) to BLM; 5% of maximum gross is £400 so...something less than that.
You claim bike value is £6,700 - and 'lucky winner' pays for delivery.
Clearly the bike has not been donated and, unlike a traditional raffle, not all proceeds are going to a good cause.
So, £8k maximum sales revenue less £6,700 to buy bike gives £1,300 net; then deduct theoretical max of £400 to BLM, so £900 unaccounted for.
Classifieds is > way although it’s not as good as it used to be.
Actually there’s an idea for STW, I’d buy a raffle ticket for an ebike I never win sod all on lotto or the Xmas STW giveaway might as well waste it somewhere else.
As I said it’s a trial. May or may not work out. Yes there’s a commercial element (is that wrong?) but mainly thought it’s an interesting model to get dream level bikes into peoples hands and do a bit of good. Happy to feed back on how it works out.
My old man used to smoke 7 packs a day. Amazed it didn't kill him.
What's your connection to Raffall?
Has the bike been donated? If yes, why not thank the donor?
If not donated, has the promoter secured a discount against the £6,700 price you quote and has the bike been purchased yet?
Who is making money out of this and, assuming, all tickets are sold how much will each make?
Neither your posts nor the website are transparent about any of this.
