I feel for pros because they really had no advantages to exploit and as far as I know, were never restricted in such a way beforehand.  Also, while some vendors did exploit their early access to the hall for things like exclusives and some autographs, I have to believe most vendors never did that.

Even for autos in the past, vendors only had an advantage for booths like Marvel that are on the floor.  They didn't get early access to Sails so had no advantage for Fox/WB etc. 

I feel sorry for volunteers as well who can't enter, and hope not all the exclusive drawings are restricted like the Mondo print is.

You know this brings up an interesting point.  I wonder if volunteers would drop because they aren't eligible for exclusives now.  Maybe/maybe not?

Perhaps not this year as regular badges are sold out (obviously)  and volunteering is the only way for them to get in. BUT they might drop for future years.

I foresee a lot of problems with the exclusion.

If you are a volunteer who purchased a badge, I would think yes, that is going to be a potential hazard for their staffing needs. 

If you are a volunteer who is doing it to get a free badge, perhaps not since they may be more inclined to save money as much as possible.

I think that its less that they want to exclude problem-people of the past and moreso that they want to keep the opportunities there for attendees themselves. I can see why they'd want to exclude vendors when they tend to flip so many things at their booths even with the exclusions, but the others seem a little harsh.

So, where is that info coming from? Did I miss something? I have seen it mentioned a couple of times, but don't know where the actual date came from. Was it on CCI's site? I am no doubting it, just wondering where it was officially announced.

Mine does not.  But I'm press. Is press not allowed to do autos either, I wonder? I never try for them usually, but this is going to kill a lot of my friends who can't anymore. (RIP Kevin)
