I'm very new to Conventions (this will be my first Vancouver one, and only my second con ever!), but is there any chance we can negotiate with Creation to get lower prices? Especially since it sounds like prices were lower in previous years.
Sorry if that's a totally stupid question...I'm going to go hide now and hope you guys don't laugh at me too much.sigpic~~sig created by bailey1ak~~

I'm not too fussed about the higher prices, other than it altering my thoughts on how sufficient my current budget planning has been, if the demand would make them consider extending the life of the con into 2013.
I guess we should all be thankful that it's nothing like the Supernatural con where front row tickets cost in excess of $1000.
I'm still aiming for at least one photo with each guest.

I remember one front row seat at Vancon going for over $1000 at auction one year.....I believe a very "enthusiastic" fan (who many of us might remember for her "exhuberance" ) was willing to pay almost anything....but that was at the height of the SG1 popularity...these days I think people are being a lot more selective for what they pay out for....
As for the SPN cons, yeah I know full well the prices being charged.....a friend is going to one and I'm astounded at the cost of photo ops, seat prices and other things....am very glad it's not my fandom....
For me, with very expensive transatlantic air fares and no Michael Shanks it's not worth me bothering....I am sad to miss the last dedicated SG1 con - I also missed the first in 2005 - but I have some very good memories of all the others to look back on.....am sure everyone will have a smashing time....

And yeah th Supernatural one is pricey. Glad not my fandom either. The 1000 dollars front row seats probably pays for the security guys for Jared and Jenson.MY CONVENTIONS:
