Collectors Item: Raffle Signed BMC Race Jersey

[milky4130]

So lets try this again, after a very unsuccessful advertisement to auction off a BMC Race Jersey Signed by the entire Team including Cadel Evans the winner of the 2011 edition of the Tour De France, I'm now resorting to raffling this collector's item. Any other suggestions or ideas are welcome or if you just prefer to side step the raffle thing & give me the value of tickets that is also welcome.

HUB Community please don't disapoint me again.

 

I'm thinking R50 a ticket

200 Tickets

Draw will happen as soon as all 200 tickets have been fully paid up. I'll provisionally reserve your ticket number until payment has been confirmed.

Cash or EFT accepted

You can buy as many tickets as you like

Winner does not have to be present at the draw.

I'll cover shipping costs & insurance if required i.e. if winner resides in another province or country.

It will be open to anyone in any country as it will be posted on other forums to, especially the Oz's for obvious reasons, but the HUB is getting first choice.

I could bring along the jersey to Western Cape Races so you can verify authenticity. Oh there is unfortunately no "authenticity certificate" but I have this email as proof from the Marketing Coordinator for BMC-RACING after I requested a authenticity certificate. By the way the jersey was won in a daily competition during the 2011 Tour De France run by Eastons if anyone was following live commentary on cyclingnews.com

 

"Thanks for taking contact about that jersey. Actually we did never do a “certificate of authenticity” for none of these jerseys. The only thing I can guarantee to you is that it is a original Hincapie Team Jersey with original team signatures. We brought those jerseys to the January Team Camp of the BMC Racing Team in Spain and let the Jerseys sign by all riders every evening after dinner a few.We would never give out a signed jersey that isn’t an original team jersey with the team having signed it. Hope this helps so far to show that you got the real one."

If you have a photo of the Team signing it and a certificate/letter put it on Ebay and it should sell quite easy.

If not you won't get much.

My sons have a Leopard Trek jersey each,that i had signed by the whole team, and it's not worth much as i can't authenticate it.To them it weans the world

Thanks, did you vote on the poll?

[gummibear]

Yes....see if the new SA BMC dealer isn't perhaps interested in it.

this type of paraphernalia would only be of interest to collectors and cycling junkies.

 

Me, I would find it a waste actually - a jersey that you frame and never use. I might be a decent cyclist but don't follow the cycling world at all (at some shock to my fellow cycling buddies).
