I think this is a pretty good approach to it. I, myself, know that it does cost to make reviews, especially ones to Dave's standard. I'll be entering!
why is everyone acting like this is such a big deal? Who cares if dave makes money off of this? he's the one putting effort into this either you think it's a good idea and you participate or you don't and you should just keep it to yourself... Good luck to dave, and good luck to everyone else, I think it's a great idea, everyone wins.
No, because anything left will be used for product reviews. It costs me to get products to video and for shipping costs to send them back. So it'll all be reinvested in bringing great reviews to the channel.
Thanks for the comment. Just to clarify it is not to earn money. The prize will cost me around £200-£220 plus shipping. Then if any funds are left it will be used to bring you some more reviews. It is not cheap to keep producing content, so it is my way of sharing, plus giving viewers the chance to win a decent tech related product.
THIS COMPETITION IS NOW CLOSED.
Please do not send in any more entries, they will not be counted. Thank you to all those who entered. The result video will be online soon.

Well, I knew about this, just goes to show how little of the entry money comes to me toward buying the product.

think that's a neat ideal to both get some donations to keep up your good work as well as giving some tech out to the world...

This is to cover the cost of purchasing the product and shipping it out.

oh ok but do you make any profit
