I'm always suspicious of raffles that either don't show how many tickets will be sold in total, or how many have been sold so far. How are you supposed to know how it's going and what your odds are?

This doesn't include charity raffles where I think it's fair enough to try to raise as much as possible.

But sometimes you get misleading comments about the odds being really good but then you can't check ticket sales... Just my piece of mind as a player.. thanks for all the good work guys

I agree. As a player ideally I want to see all the basic info to convince me to buy a ticket. Knowing how many have been sold so far is good info and confirms how well the raffle is going.

As long as I can find other info across the site that reassures me it's a genuine house raffle, I'm not bothered. It's all in the terms and conditions anyway and if they don't sell enough i'll get a refund or cash (assuming i trust them!) - peace

For me that's important as well, I don't want to be one of the few people that actually buy a ticket when other raffles could be going really well and show how many they're selling
