we are going to start having the discussion after sdcc hotels-

the group leaders have run groups for sdcc so are very comfortable running groups & i've got full confidence in their ability. 
we have the talent
we have the technology
we have the space
so i would say expect an announcement by the end of next week, April 14th or 15th.  Most likely that will include an invitation to join a google doc and a nycc buying group area on the forum.

Now that I am set for SDCC, I am ready to turn my attention towards NYCC.  I have never been and tried to get tickets last year.  They sold out so quickly that I am happy for the help of this fantastic group!

Too fast!  Every time I got into the online queue, it would kick me out when it refreshed.  Fortunately another person saved me a spot when she got in and called me.

I read that NYCC is now larger - attendance wise - than SDCC. You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login  The star power is far less, but lots of comic and other stuff going on.  I have never been but this may be the year.

Can someone please tell me the buying limits for each ticket and total amount of tickets you could buy last year.

For example could you purchase 2 UA and 2 SA in the same purchase?

IIRC the limit was 2 VIP tickets per order.  There were some here that I believe got in more than once and were able to purchase more than the limit although they did say they were going to delete those sales...not sure if there was a limit on 4 days though...

it was 2 of each type of vip. So, 2 UA and 2 SA. I don't recall how many 4 days though. I believe maybe a total of 10 passes if my memory serves me correct.

Update:  We are working out the details for the NYCC buying group.  We hope to have a thread posted within the next week.  Please be patient with us we have a lot to prepare in order to make this work.
