I have 5 very lightly used Sweepstakes Tickets for sale. Although they have little face value, there is tremendous sentimentality attached to them, exascerbated by the cruel hand of fate yesterday. Will let these collectors items go for peanuts. Serious collectors only, call 1-800-WIN-NADA.
 
What are the numbers? I would like to add to my collection of four but would prefer numbers in sequence. How many peanuts do you want for them? I have a whole jar.
 
I would gladly pay you on Tuesday for a losing ticket today.*

Do you accept clams or bananas in lieu of peanuts.

* Poor paraphrase of Wimpy.
 
I just bid on similar tickets on Ebay. Hope I will win them. Then I can say I won something! Right? Congrats to all the real winners.
 
Deal or no deal

Have a sunken oil drilling rig in the gulf I'll trade for those tickets. All liabilities included.
 
Are you the first owner of said tickets?

Do you have a complete maintenance history for said tickets?

Have they ever been down?

Do you have pics?
 
Having analyzed mounds of data, although admittedly done in a very fragile emotional state, I have come to the conclusion that my tickets had catastrophic final drive failure. Furthermore, since they were 2010 tickets, they may have stalled due to a cam chain timing malfunction just before 3PM CDT yesterday. I think there are several service bulletins covering this. I demand another drawing! Surely, BMWNA will do a goodwill reconciliation on this matter. How can I possibly trust BMW ever again?:scratch:dunno:whistle:bolt
 
I too, have a losing ticket. However, this was a really good bet. The government lotteries in Canada are a very poor bet.
In fact, the chances of winning increase very slightly, if you buy a ticket.
 
My not winning the S100rr is proof I have a guardian angel looking out for me.
But really. Is there that much difference between a '90 K75 and the S1000? :laugh
