In for two!
I think you should make it more clear that the tickets to Antarctica are not included and that the $5000 is supposed to cover that.
There should also be an option to buy x tickets for $770.

2 for $180 was a smart move. I probably wouldn't get 2 for $240 but I plan on doing 2 for $180. Judging by the comments  it seems that's gonna be a popular choice.

I hope you're right.
Tickets are pricey and there isn't a budget for advertising as other raffles have. I'm just hoping enough are sold to make it work.

Hoping the same. I'll do my part by buying, and sharing the link. Will we get exclusive real time DDF updates on how many sold?

There should be some free advertising channels in Cleveland for a tzidaka raffle.

In for 2. How many will "need to be sold" in order to hold the raffle?

As of now, no. See up thread.

I would suggest maybe an option for 8 tickets for $560 - 40 times חבד.  ;)
I've been waiting over 5 years with bated breath for someone to say that!

Nothing wrong, but that a high threshold for someone who cares about that multiple.  ;)
I would have suggested an even lower threshold but didn't want to mess with your current tiers.

Maybe rewards for the higher buckets, ala Kickstarter?
