abstractharmony Posted February 9, 2007 Share Posted February 9, 2007 Sounds good to me... Although with Wifey being on maternity leave I'm going to have to settle for a Silver one methinks... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Piglet Posted February 9, 2007 Share Posted February 9, 2007 Sounds good. Can people opting for the regular or silver tickets still get photo opp tickets if bought seperately? I know they are included in the cost for the Gold package, but can you buy them there if opting for one of the other packages? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TricksyHobbit Posted February 9, 2007 Share Posted February 9, 2007 Well this is excellent news!!! At least now we know what we have to look forward to and how much we need to save to get the ticket we want. The prices seem fair for what you are offering, and I will look forward to meeting old friends - both guests and con-goers. Yippeeeeee!!!! It sounds like there are lots of great activities planned and I for one will be taking part in as much as I can!! Time to get out the sewing machine I think and also to plan a costume for my little girl.. now what can I dress a 2 year old in? ????? LOL Watch out Marc - your Hot Brit chicks are eagerly awaiting your arrival - hope you're ready for partying hard!!! Rosie XX Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not going to Germany this year (though in all fairness it would be cheeper than buying a Gold ticket lol) and am so looking forward to this. We will be able to see friends who we haven't been able to meet up with in a few years and those who regularly meet up too and it's all very exciting. I hope if Claudia makes it over she's got a bank loan for her shopping trip And yup, Marc, your Hot Brit Chicks will definatley be awaiting your arrival, the UK won't know what's hit them BRING IT ON!!! Lisa x x Just a quick question please Jason - I am going all threee days but am leaving my children behind with their Grandparents. My initial intention was to have them bought up for the day and get my dad etc a day pass to do this. Will there be an option to buy day passes and will children 10 and under be free or charged for (or half price?). Lisa x x Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phoenix Posted February 11, 2007 Share Posted February 11, 2007 Will there be the opportunity to buy single autograph tickets, one day passes, and access to parties and takls separately also? I was only intending on coming down for the one day, depending on what days the guests I want to see are there. Please could you clear this up? Thanks.

wiccawise21 Posted February 11, 2007 Share Posted February 11, 2007 sounds fantastic. i am really looking forward the 'convention' side of things. i have only ever really experienced collectormania style events and i think you will agree when i say they are quite different. its all rather exciting really. and reasonably priced too i think. lots for your money! =x= Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mich Posted February 12, 2007 Share Posted February 12, 2007 Yeah, I think myfriends and I can only make one day too, and I'd appreciate a single day entry ticket.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noddy Posted February 12, 2007 Share Posted February 12, 2007 Single day tickets will be popular but people must realise that it is highly unlikely that day attendees will be able to meet all the guests as signing time will be limited to a few hours per day.

Aspen Posted February 12, 2007 Share Posted February 12, 2007 Wonder if sm will offer a payment scheme to spread the cost over a couple of months rather than a lump sum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TricksyHobbit Posted February 12, 2007 Share Posted February 12, 2007 Wonder if sm will offer a payment scheme to spread the cost over a couple of months rather than a lump sum I've never seen ANY event do a payment scheme. but if you don't ask then you wont get. I'm starting to save now cos I'm definitely coming. My credit card may hate me for it, but it's got to be done - how often does an event like this come to the UK?!!!!

Road trip Rosie!!! My credit card thinks my name is 'declined' lol, but hell I'd not eat for months if it meant I could do this event. I'd still like to find out about childrens tickets, and also if there will be a place for pushchairs. Believe me it's not fun being told you can't take your pushchair into the main hall (it happened at another venue and was not popluar with those that had paid a small fortune for tickets) and also that your seat was the one right at the top of the stairs in the middle of the row......(though I gotta admit this was sorted out brilliantly for us and we got top notch treatment) Will watch all threads with baited breath and can't wait to meet up with everybody Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Poppy Posted February 16, 2007 Share Posted February 16, 2007 Sorry another question. If you get a silver pass, do you get higher priority for photo tickets? I know things aren't finalised yet, so hope its okay to ask!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
