EndlessWaves: Looking through the T&Cs:

"Prize will only be awarded and/or delivered to addresses within . All federal, state and/or local taxes, fees, and surcharges are the sole responsibility of the prize winner. "

For a prize of this value you really need to be pre-paying custom duty and tax. You don't say where it's dispatched from, but if it's sent from datamaster in the US then a winner here in the UK would be given a customs bill of £350+

A unique prize is all very nice, but I could buy a top of the range keyboard and mouse of my choice for that sort of money.

(although this being a gog competition the winners will never be announced, so I guess it's a moot point)
Hey everyone, just thought I'd clear up the import duties/tax issues. The prizes will indeed be sent from the States, however, they'll be marked as a gift, ie. they shouldn't incur any import duties. This is the industry standard for handling contest and giveaway send-outs. I've spoken to Gambitious directly and was informed that they've done this in the past and so far none of the recipients had to pay any tax on their prize. However, if something like that should happen, all costs associated with the delivery of the prize to the winner will be reimbursed.

Hope this clarifies this :)

HereForTheBeer: Same if the winner is from the US? Normally this stuff is counted as income for tax purposes and one would need to claim it at the end of the year, effectively causing income tax on an additional $2,000 of "income".
Yep, should work the same if the winner is from the US.
