On December 07, we launched our Leica M9 lottery. Only three days later, all tickets were sold out. A total of 784 persons bought the 9,999 tickets at $1 each, averaging just short of 13 per ticket buyer (although some bought up to 500 tickets at a time!).
We now have the pleasure of congratulating Bertrand Girard as the winner of our lottery! Mr. Girard from France will receive his prize as soon as his preferred dealer can deliver the Leica M9 (most stores still have waiting lists, so it may be a wait, unfortunately).
Mr. Girard has been notified through e-mail, and we hope to get back with an interview with the winner at a later time.
Congratulations Bertrand!
You lucky .. man!
Jarle

Congratz! You must be so happy!
I do hope he will use the M9. I’m afraid I entered the lottery knowing that I would sell the camera if I won, being an R and not an M man. Perhaps I deserved to lose. Congratulations Bertrand.
Another please?
