Possibly not technically breaking any rules but I don't see any mention of which charity it is or they are supporting. Personally I would stay well away from it.0

I don't know fo sure but I guess because they state you are only getting an empty box then I would have thought so.0

Hmmm. I thought raffles were prohibited on Ebay.
Not naming the charity or even listing it as a charity auction is very dodgy imo.0 -
Interesting idea. I suspect that Ebay doesn't have a rule to cover this :-) But I wonder if it contravenes the lottery regulations.0

I reckon it would breach this rule:
