the person that won the first pair of eBay auction passes paid $6100 also won the 3rd auction at $4150. he paid over $10k for 4 passes! i wonder if he is done or if he is going to try to win more auctions?

Sad thing is, I'm pretty sure that these 'charity' passes don't make you eligible for rpe-registration in the fall...

Averages $2,500/pass...given how tough a ticket this is to get, is that really surprising?

If I had that kind of money (spoiler alert: I don't), I would have absolutely no qualms about paying that much for SDCC badges. Also, I'd book a VIP suite at one of the hotels, the ones that are not available through OnPeak. Heck, maybe I'd rent out a yacht and park it beside that IMDB boat.

But sadly I don't have that kind of money.

This person spent more on badges than I currently have left for student loan debt. Impressive.

I’m wondering if it’s a corporation. My friend’s company has bid on a few VIP lots in the past (Ie front row Super Bowl) and those are usually given to high performing employees

Latest auctions ending at around $2500.

Or, as Steven Wright said, the early bird gets the worm but the second mouse gets the cheese.

$2500 for 2 4-day badges isn't bad....it's what they go for roughly on the secondary market and this way they are actually under your name.  I will for sure be keeping this in mind if I miss out on the release next year.
