dijon1322 Posted September 4, 2007 Share Posted September 4, 2007 On a lighter note than my last post this ones about what did you spend at london earls court and did you feel it was wel worth spending? i spent £75 on autographs with William, billy west, robert englund, deep roy and Michael grossman (top bloke) came back pretty happy with that cheap really last SM event i spent £300, £80 of which went on superman himself!!! So share your experiences how much did this weekend set you back? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators DavidB Posted September 4, 2007 Moderators Share Posted September 4, 2007 Hmm lemme think: Autographs: Hayden, Jack, Milo, Adrian, Dominic Monaghan. Photo Shoots: Hayden, Jack, Milo/Adrian. Heroes Cast Print. I'd say around £200, just over maybe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Idrillia Posted September 4, 2007 Share Posted September 4, 2007 (edited) Hmmm... I spent £15 on photos on a stall. £20 on a Dominic photo session and £20 on a Dominic autograph for a friend. £1.80 on a can of soft drink - the horror!! Youth Hostel: £26.50 Train: £16 Entrance £10 Tube/bus travel £4 Cloak room: £2 I have very little disposable cash so I have to be careful really. £115 all in or so. Not so bad. At C12 I spent £20 on a figure set, £12 on film cells, the cost of the James Marsters talk, the Billy Boyd concert and whatever it was for a Superman autograph, £20? So that one was way more costly, plus two nights in a hotel and food. I did actually have some more spare cash to spend at LFCC but I was so put off looking at the stalls by the dark lighting it never got spent! Was happy with what I got at LFCC though, which is the main thing! Edited September 4, 2007 by Idrillia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psychosis Posted September 4, 2007 Share Posted September 4, 2007 I spent £125 on autos for Robert Englund, Hayden Panettiere, Adrian Pasdar, Milo Ventimiglia and Jack Coleman. Then I spent £80 on photographs with Robert Englund (BY FAR my favourite!), Hayden Panettiere, Milo & Adrian, and Jack Coleman. Was gutted about my Jack Coleman photo, the photographer didn't check it and I had my eyes closed and my face screwed up like I'd been indulging in a lot of pot smoking. £205 altogether.

Princess83 Posted September 5, 2007 Share Posted September 5, 2007 I'm £175 overdrawn in my bank account because of LFCC. The money went on autos, travel, hotel and general living expenses over the weekend. I'm so broke! But I always am after these cons. I *always* end up spending more than intended, it's just part of the experience! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
