yeah, exactly, last year didnt got PN and decided to go the coin-op event and I had so much fun, no lines, no running, no exclusives stress, much better way to start the con for me, so much that I'm not trying for PN this year just hoping the event repeats
[member=6989]kihou[/member] - Thank you!
[member=317]Zero[/member] [member=1732]SamTurtledove[/member] - Thanks for the clarification! I sent an email to CCI to see if they might note that on their badge info page, too.
[member=6989]kihou[/member] [member=1732]SamTurtledove[/member] [member=317]Zero[/member] The reply I just got from CCI about an additional handling fee is below. Looks like we will be charged another fee this year. Now I am really confused. Maybe someone else can email CCI to see if their response is the same?

All purchases are subject to a $7.50 handling fee per member.
All purchases are subject to a one-time handling fee of $7.50 per member. This is a one-time fee. For example, if you purchased a badge during Returning Registration, you will not be charged a handling fee if you purchase a badge during Open Registration.
So regretting I didn’t join a buying group
It's not mandatory, I'm sure you'll do fine. I'm not part of a group and got in on my own last year (first timer), and again this year.
I know someone who got in like that last year and this year. There can't be two in a million, so I wonder if you're he.
Actually, they already have it under the badge pricing chart on the "Badge Info" page of their website (as I linked above), but I suppose that would be considered "the fine print." *laughs* XDDoesn't hurt to ask them to make it noticeable though... Probably a good idea, seeing how others might have the same question but couldn't specifically locate the text for reference. ^__^; (Even I almost missed it! Ha ha.)That can't be right... the website says "per member." Unless that is indeed a new policy they haven't announced yet, or... that person is mistaken and replied incorrectly. Hm. Let me try asking and seeing what I get as a response (while referencing the fine print under the badge pricing chart). Will report back as soon as I hear from them.EDIT:I also checked the fine print under the badge pricing chart just now, and it was updated from this (which was the text last night, as of my previous post): QuoteAll purchases are subject to a $7.50 handling fee per member.to this (which is the text as of this post):QuoteAll purchases are subject to a one-time handling fee of $7.50 per member. This is a one-time fee. For example, if you purchased a badge during Returning Registration, you will not be charged a handling fee if you purchase a badge during Open Registration.
[member=1732]SamTurtledove[/member] - That seals it for me. Thanks for such detail! (Soooooo....The CCI person who replied to me earlier today was incorrect. It happens, and sure can confuse things. )
