Default Is legal to create a raffle in Ireland

I looked on the net and couldn't find nothing or I am probably looking for the wrong thing.

How legal is to have a paid ticket raffle in Ireland?

Lets say you raffle a product worth 5000 euro and only have 100 x 50.00 € for sale.

How legal is that?

It comes under the Lotteries Act, have a look at this link

If it's for a registered charity, I think you just need your local Garda Super to authorise it (but check on that). We ran one for a charity and the local garda station organised the permit.

Private Clubs GAA/Golf etc and the Work place are all classed as in-house. The tickets can not be publicly advertised nor can tickets be sold to the general public. All registered Charities can get legal advice and help from the registrar if they wish to run a fundraising event (the nod to a good printer for example) link to a summary from the Citizens Information DataBase (now the Citizens Information Board) Here.
