nope it will keep rising, I'm sure. I won't be doing any live streaming. I wonder if they will change the "recording" rule now

I agree! They need to realize they are getting crazy with these prices! If they are allowing live streaming and recording now why bother going?

[Tennessee Whiskey]

^ Exactly! It would be cheaper for me to pay for streaming then the insane amount for gold, photo ops, hotel and air fare! Or at the very least only show up for Sunday.

[ocfan27]

Completely agree! Some people get the con as a gift or something but there are other people like myself that pay for the entire thing..it's not right.

[One Thing Remains]

Whoever gets the con as a gif is super lucky! Capitalism run amok. They are probably trying to figure out the max that people are willing to pay.

[ocfan27]

I agree with both points! The prices will continue to rise and some people will pay and others won't but those that won't shouldn't be shamed because they can't or won't

[Tennessee Whiskey]

^ Exactly. They do realize we're just common folk. It's the actors that get paid the big bucks. I love my con weekends...but there comes a time where it has to be enough is enough.

[magikhands1]

if attendance goes down, maybe they will get the picture, but there are many that will pay no matter what.

I agree..it's sad to think about I this year will be my last one. I never thought I'd meet them ever so to go twice is a dream

[Tennessee Whiskey]

That's the problem. Somebody is always going to the price. Especially with the how nearing the end, nobody knows how long the cons will last...so go to them now, kinda thing.

[ocfan27]

i see what you are saying....i don't blame people for wanting to go but the price really turns some off

[magikhands1]

I think the cons could go on for at least a year after the show ends. So creation is getting all they can.

[ocfan27]

that makes sense...they could go on forever

[quin0611]

Yes very good point.

[ocfan27]

People will always want to go but they have to do something about the prices
