Hard cold cash. The next best thing is a Nintendo Wii. If you offer USD100 at the beginning of the contest, you should honor your promise and give it although there are only 5 entrants received at the end of the day! Don’t say that due to the low entry for this contest, then you lowered the winning prize. That is daylight robbery and people will hate and write bad things about your blog. But if you like the controversies then do it! Good example is about the Cow getting an i-Phoney. [...] [...] Personally I think the best prize is always cash! Hard cold cash.

I just dropped a bit of money at Dragon Con to buy a couple of cool prizes to give away on my anime blog. Well, they're cool if you're a fan of Fullmetal Alchemist. 2 DVDs, 1 regular 1 special edition, and a music CD by the voice actor that plays Ed. All three are autographed by the actor playing Ed. It's no iPhone, but it's appropriate to the blog. Man, I hope this doesn’t give blog contests a bad name.

That person would probably not have cared and would have likely been grateful for 100 bucks. I don't see any attempt at salvage so far.

The SMART thing to do would be to give the iPhone to John Cow...it's lucky for Rea that John Cow was the one who won it, rather than some nobody blogger who has 3 posts (me?) that won't bring any new readers, links or traffic. There may be time to salvage this...but Rea is on Kumiko's blacklist...it may also be too late!

Contests are a hit and miss these days. You never know what your gonna end up with. If he couldn't afford to give away the iPhone if the contest failed, than he should have considered that at the start. Also, if your giving away an iPhone, certainly you should have enough money or something to promote your contest. You can't just "wait" for people to find your contest. You need to sell your contest!
