What fun! I would totally do this... however... in the USA:
It would not go over here, though. Americans want what they want when they want it (and nothing less so help them God). They would never be willing (in droves) to just accept whatever's in the bag.
Even if they signed a consent form saying they would abide by the rules, the minute they were disappointed after opening their swag bag, here'd come the tears/swears. They would try to find a way around the NO RETURN rule and there would be a lot of pissing/moaning/fit throwing. They'd make the whole situation impossible and miserable.
I'm American and I hate to admit it but I know how much of this society acts/thinks. I'm not that way (and would accept a less than stellar bag), but most are (and wouldn't).
Sad but true.
People are really willing to spend $430 for random items? $430 is a lot of money to throw away in a lottery.
Why don't they just take the money and put it toward what they actually want to buy?
Let me put it this way: what if I told you that by giving 400 bucks to me you would get random tech items up to a range of 400$ to 800$ sticker price? Would you really give me 400 dollars?
For those asking why Americans don't have that, its simple. Americans don't like losing, especially in todays "everyones a winner" society.
At the local mall in my town, we have this thing every year and the mall buys thousands of bananas and you buy a ticket, and get a banana and theres a sticker on each banana you peel off the sticker and theres a percentage discount and the name of a store. Its fun because theres a lot of bartering between customers for different bananas. All the guys want the gamestop bananas and the females want the ones for Torrid or Kays Jewelers.
Its funand its like a midnight event as well, so all the stores are open till 3am.
Why cannot we have this :'(
I for one would queue up. That said, as @Kil pointed out - I could see me breaking up a few things on the way out from the Apple store if they decided to put a pair of socks and underwear inside

I'd wait in line for this. I can't think of an Apple product I would say no to.
Hear, hear. Thanks for the voice of reason.Stereotypes are silly, I'm sure an event like this would go over just fine in the U.S.
