wraithfodderI really like Joe Flanigan. Really, I do. But. But... $500 (opening bid) for cocktails with him? And this isn't you and him, it's you and other fans, so if one is really obsessive, you've paid $500 to be a doormat...

Starting at $500 and you can put it on a payment plan! But hey, you get *snacks*. The whole ala carte pricing of this con would kill me. I mean the gold ticket is something like $500, then if you want set tours, more, and photo ops, and autographs and well, best wishes to those who can afford this. I only would hope they'd post about it on the web for the rest of us to live vicariously through them...

Re: Joe getting something?
Date: 2009-03-26 03:17 am (UTC)TBH, it was more an observation that he would actually get paid something, unlike a secondary who shall remain nameless who didn't even get a percentage of the extra autographs and photo ops at last year's con, just a flat-rate fee while Cretin were raking it in off people buying extras.
Also, the event usually pay for the actor's flights (business or first) and hotel as part of the deal, in addition to the fee.
While people keep paying Cretin thus validating their existence, they aren't going nowhere.
