I'll be sure to perform a raffle ritual with my friends and pray to the kappa gods for a shell cap  :thumb:

Yeah, I thought it was a little strange to offer up to 4 caps per person. There would definitely be people who just took for simply because they could.

Yes, the more the merrier!

Another user made an excellent point that @ 4/per, I'd realistically be hooking-up around 33 people with caps. If I were on the other end of this you better believe my first inclination would be to tick the check-boxes for 4 caps rather than just one. @2/per max were hitting at least 66, that feels a lot better. Still though, the odds will be against winning two.

Haven't figured out the specifics of how the selection sets will be handled yet but I'm sure I'll land on an equitable solution before Saturday's raffle

These are so gorgeous! I've been a fan or the turtle shell design ever since I was a kid.
I had 2 turtles who grew too big for their aquarium and I unfortunately had to give them away to a pet shop, who traded me for them two lousy and loud parrots.
Worst part of my childhood!

I hated those parrots so much...  :mad:

Congrats on your work!

I mean, if people are going to sell theirs, I'm just saying I would buy them. I understand the significance of this giveaway and the stigma of artisan scalping and I definitely wouldn't sell mine if I won but I'm sure there are going to be a lot of people entering just for a free cap with the intention of selling.

Saying I would buy this cap isn't helping the cause, I know, but it's just honestly how badly I want one and I don't want to offend eat_the_food and his caps. The caps are amazing and the giveaway is fantastic and generous. I just like turtles... :-[

I hope that he doesn't choose massdrop, because us europeans will end up paying 30% on top of the price for import taxes. Plus customs delays.

Have you asked eat_the_food if he will continue making these caps in the future? Maybe you'll have the opportunity to get one after the giveaway.

Anyway, saying "name your price" in this thread encourages scalping. Knowingly buying stolen goods makes you a guilty party - similar concept here. It'd be best to keep the topic of reselling out of this thread entirely.  Otherwise is to taint a good thing.

Hopefully he keeps making more!

And I agree I shouldn't have said that as I don't want to taint such beautiful caps and their maker. I got carried away when I imagined having a whole row of every shell.

Really hoping he does a normal group buy of these to keep the price down and to discourage scalping. It is cool enough that these are free, they don't need to be a limited run too.

Same, though I have already watched it in the past year  ;D Granted it's a nostalgic trip, but practical holds up REALLY good and it's nice and dark.
