D*C 2010 memberships
Sep. 24th, 2009 04:19 pmOkay, now that the Dragon*Con store is back up, I'm kind of annoyed.
On the Monday of the con this year I went over to the Sheraton to buy next year's membership. Was told that even though the con booklet advertised registration open until 5, some brilliant person had scheduled the computers to be picked up at 2, so they closed way early. Okay, annoying, but the store in the Marriott was still open, so I headed there. Only to find a huge line. We were told that the $50 price would be good online until October 1st, so not to worry if we didn't have time to stay in line. By that time, I'd gotten a call that one of our group was leaving so I left the line to say goodbye and do other things instead.
Evidently the staff at the store were either lying or completely misinformed.
Online price is $60, good until Nov. 13th. Am not happy about that. Might be only 10 bucks, but if I'd known the price would go up, I'd have gone back to get in line that Monday.
Have sent the D*C store people an email, but haven't heard back. That was a week or so ago, so I'm not holding my breath on it.
