natedammit Posted July 13, 2018 Share Posted July 13, 2018 I have four of those plastic boxes Roy posted the link to (two thin ones, two fat ones). They are currently all packed full of the photoshoots I've got over the last 2/3 years. I'm too lazy to sort them out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I advise not buying them even for use at the event, they are fine for carrying unsigned stuff but I really wouldn't use them at all for signed stuff. The ones we are talking about for anyone unfamiliar are semi rigid sleeves that come in different sizes and have an opening at the top. They are thin so the pics/auto's will touch the inside, they can be very staticy so it can be hard to get things out and they are not acid free Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raylenth Posted July 13, 2018 Author Share Posted July 13, 2018 Long term storage - older stuff in Ultra Pro pages in a binder but I've run out and they are hard to get now, newer stuff in an archive quality box Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Liv Posted July 13, 2018 Share Posted July 13, 2018 So, I've been collecting as many £5 notes as I can as I understand the crew prefer if you can pay with them. However, it's really unlikely I'll be able to gather enough to pay for the extra autos I would like to buy for some of my friends. For Tom Welling, each auto is £45 I believe? Will it be ok still to use £10 and £20 notes? Or I think I remember that you can pay by card? How does that work? Of course, I will be getting my DP one on Saturday. And I remember reading that you can purchase up to at least 5 autos at a time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is not like they wont take them it is just it can be a struggle with change if everybody pays with 20's or 50's..They will love you for 10's and 5's as they will need it. But 20's and 10's will be excellent as well. No card at the guest desks, only card if you buy vouchers at the sales desk..but the queue might be very long so I suggest cash.

For Card payments you have to go to the sales table - not the Autograph table - where they will give you vouchers in various denominations.

Whatever notes you have Liv is fine, £5's help as the crew can run short especially for the guests that are something £5 but you don't have to stress. The oldies usually take £5's as they know it helps out but it's fine. If you want to pay by card you go to the sales desk and they will give you vouchers which you hand over at the auto desk instead of cash, the queue can be long at the sales desk so if you want to do it, do it in plenty of time.

Liv Posted July 13, 2018 Share Posted July 13, 2018 I forgot that's the way you pay by card. Think I'll probably stick with cash then, as it's easier. Good to know it's absolutely ok to use £10 notes as well. Thanks guys. Oh, and with personalising autos, as I intend to get some for my friends it would be nice to have each one with their names. So when you choose which photos at the table, would it be best to put a post it note to each with their names? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have them ready before you are in the queue ideally, print the names clearly, and attach to each photo. Remember though that personalisations and quotes are not guaranteed and are unlikely to be allowed with any really busy guests. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pffft I certainly did not tell her to just blow it and buy all the photo shoots. No siree. She did not go from 1 shoot to 5 or 6 and a couple of talks in about 20 minutes for any reason at all.

andrewrolar Posted July 13, 2018 Share Posted July 13, 2018 I have a query and rather than open another thread I'll put it here, as its a new issue for me I'm going all 3 days , no probs. My brother is only going Saturday and Sunday. Due to not being able to plan anything too early, Saturday has sold out so I've bought him a 3 day entry (which he won't need on friday) Can he pick it up on Saturday, or do I need to get it (it's bought on my app ) for him on the Friday ? If I do, will there be an issue with the fact that he won't be there to have the 3 day band put on his wrist (ie I'll need to just take it and give it to him later that night) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As they do have to attach the band you can't collect weekend entry bands for other people Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrewrolar Posted July 13, 2018 Share Posted July 13, 2018 Thanks. I was concerned that 3 day passes would only be available to be collected on the actual 1st day of the 3. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raylenth Posted July 14, 2018 Author Share Posted July 14, 2018 Yeah unfortunately not many places will do it over the counter any more and for most you will need a UK account. You best bet might be to go to the Bank Of England if you can Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
