Don't want anything too heavy or difficult to take home. The finn Jones dp gift at Birmingham in June was a themed notebook/journal. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EllaBlair Posted July 23, 2019 Share Posted July 23, 2019 I forgot to pick up my diamond pass gifts last year. Remembered as I was on my way to the airport. Need to do it this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The problem was that the leaving was really loud and interrupted her. She tried to ask the man a question about him leaving but didn't get a reaction which resulted in two sentences from her about rude behaviour in cons.

Diabolik Posted July 23, 2019 Share Posted July 23, 2019 A bit of courtesy never goes amiss - mind you I would have thought a Betazoid would already know why he was leaving...;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ravogd Posted July 23, 2019 Share Posted July 23, 2019 I don't do cosplay but is there an area for cosplayers to get changed? I want to change my granddaughter into various outfits for her different photoshoots and I'll be damned if I'm taking her into the gents to do it!

carlrobinmikael Posted July 23, 2019 Share Posted July 23, 2019 (edited) Just read this on the gold pass info from the shop: ''we will implement a Gold only VQ system'' about the autograph priority Does that mean that we gold passes still need to get a VQ ticket for a certain guest? Fully awere about the system for the DP guest so don't worry! Just saw the text above: ''In the event of large queues, we will implement a Gold only VQ system'' So nevermind guys keep on going!

If it was me leaving and she had addressed me I would have said, "I'm really sorry, I have a photo shoot/talk/whatever that I need to get to or I will miss it." Also it is important when leaving early to do it as quietly as possible. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That might be me getting close to grandma age, but if I can't make something I previously agreed to attend and that a friend Paid for I would never expect that they bear the Costs anyway. You can try e-Mailing the shop like Chris suggested, but this would be a Pretty big exception. Plus that close to a Show they are really busy, so you may not receive a Reply on time. It's not getting close to grandma age, it's basic manners. If your friend isn't coming and you can't give the ticket to anyone else, they should reimburse you anyway. It's not your fault they can't make it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Queen_Sindel Posted July 24, 2019 Author Share Posted July 24, 2019 I mentioned grandma's age because we had a similar Situation in our Pokemon Group. One of the younger Players begged me to get him an Event ticket - credit Card payments only and credit Cards are still uncommon here. Then a week later he couldn't make it. He was flabbergasted when I told him I was sorry, but he still owed me 40 Euro for his ticket because it wasn't exactly my fault that he hadn't checked with his boss before.

gracet125 Posted July 24, 2019 Share Posted July 24, 2019 Please can a member of LFCC staff clear this up. I have seen a lot of ticket resell posts in LFCC fb groups. At first, it was just normal "Selling ticket for "day" " Until someone pointed out that ID may be checked. There are now a lot of posts with sellers stating they will provide the buyer with a copy of their ID. Correct me if I'm wrong but I would assume that if you are asked to present ID and present someone else's ID then you will still be refused entry? A lot of people are asking how this would go if it was a gift. Is there any way you can discern the difference between gifts and reselling? I.e. if a gift does the person who bought the gift have to be present, etc. I know LFCC don't really do ID checks (they don't check every single person) but I imagine you do spot checks and all it takes is one spot check and someone who bought a resold ticket and there's going to be people complaining they were not informed etc so just want an LFCC staff member to clear this situation up and I will relay to the FB group.
