Got this from a local wholesaler today:

"Dear colleague

A used KT65DL multifunction 8 in 1 tester is up for grabs, worth over £400 at XXXXXXXX Guildford branch.

Just buy a £10 ticket from one of our staff on the Trade Counter and pop it in the raffle box to be in with a chance to win this tester that’s only been used once.

The KT65DL can test continuity, insulation resistance, loop impedance, PSC (L-N/L-L), PFC (L-PE), RCD, earth, phase rotation and voltage with all results shown on a large-size backlit display on the front of the tester.

To make choosing a test procedure easier each test is assigned a colour.

We will draw the winning ticket on Tuesday, 24th December at 11:00 am."

Why 2nd hand and more importantly - where are the proceeds from the raffle going ? staff xmas lunch? managers back pocket? a local charity?

 
Depends if the prize is donated or purchased. Donated you can't lose!

A small charity group I work with buy prizes costing say £12, so there is a small gamble that we may not sell £12 of tickets.

We have made occasional losses when the weather has been against us though usually we do OK.
