WINNERS WERE JUST SELECTED!!!!   I WILL POST TICKET #s SHORTLY!!!

Damnit!!  Just tried buying them and it wouldn’t let me.  Said unavailable.

You've got to be kidding.  Last second buy of a ticket because of your procrastinators post yields a winner.  Completely nuts.  Saving it all for the last hour next year.

See, my analysis was accurate.  LOL. You deserve it.  Your generosity and donation of the 10030 UCS Star Destroyer for the raffle was a wonderful thing.

2 off of the mystery lot, less than 50 off of Ssd and hoth lots. Whoever won those bought tickets today.

I was really rooting for you to win it.  I only have 1 more for my collection, but if I come across another I will let you know.

There is one member that I will be reaching out personally for putting us over the $40,000.00 mark.  He knows who he is.  Thank you.

LOL...I have 3, I just don't want to open them...

To all winners...You should have been notified by Rallyup.com.  Feel free to reach out to me by PM to confirm shipping addresses and prize selection, otherwise, I will start reaching out to everyone over the next day or so if I don't hear from them.  I will try to get some feedback from winners for bonus sets and such.  Please be patient...Thanks...Ed

PS:  I'm going to bed...I'm an old geezer!

Congratulations to all winners and congratulations to St. Paul School for being the biggest winner here!

Thank you all for participating! I tell everyone the raffle story and so many think it's unbelievable! We at St. Paul's can't thank you enough.  Congratulations to all the winners!  A special thanks to the Mack Brothers and their families for all the work and constant support. We are Saint Pauls Strong because of them! Much love.

Happy Birthday ED!  Thanks again to everyone but espcially Ed and Jeff!  Great support as always - - the kids truly thank you!

I sure would love to give away extra sets to ALL of the winners, but it's getting close to 12:00 AM and we are still over $2000.00 away from $40,000.00.  Too bad really, I have a lot of inventory I have to clear out of my house.  My wife will be unhappy!

I could buy some from you at discount price if you REALLY want to get rid of them! I was wondering, how many tickets were there total to the LOTR one? I bought 3 and I want to know what my odds WERE. I'm  not forgiving myself for not buying another ticket at the last second.

I will have Jeff run the totals for me in a bit.  It is useful for next year's raffle...if I have the energy to run one.  I am an old man. I don't have much juice left....

Ok Thanks! And I just realized that I am pretty sure i didn't win but I never printed out my tickets so I can't find my numbers! AHHHHHH

Spoke with three winners so far...There was a winner from Canada and Malaysia and the rest from the US.

Not to get to far off topic but how does RallyUp pick a ticket? Looking at mine over the years it's seems to always pick towards the middle of the tickets pulled. Leaving the ones at the beginning and end out. Anyone know?

Am I the only one who ROFL'ed at this? I read it as "spoke with 3 winners, one from Canada, one from Malaysia and the rest (read "1") from the US"

I did not put a second thought, that's just the way @Ed Mack talks/writes
