it is better marketing than telling everyone the hotel is selling out and only higher priced suites are available.

DirtyDanza 01-05-2009 07:16 PM

NickB. 01-05-2009 07:26 PM

pretty messed up, just saw the email as well

NaughtyRob 01-05-2009 08:00 PM

Never got that email. InterNext SUCKS anyway. Especially since it went to the Palms and I can't bring hot 18 yr old girls there.

GTS Mark 01-05-2009 08:52 PM

I just regged 6 people, thanks for the discount. :)

Yeah i gotta agree with you, that simply isn't fair that you should pay more. I would contact them and ask for a credit for the difference.

WiredGuy 01-05-2009 09:17 PM

All this does is encourage people to not register next year and wait to the last minute. Brilliant marketing from AVN.

Getting my sleeping bag ready for next year.

Sosa 01-05-2009 09:44 PM

wow that's fucked up

Phoenix 01-05-2009 09:46 PM

yeah im pissed off..i was even speaking to an avn rep while buying my tickets today

im super pissed..would have saved 450 bucks...

Iron Fist 01-05-2009 09:48 PM

Sounds like par for the course...

Don't airlines do exactly the same thing? Fly on standby and wait until last minute and save a ton.. or get fucked if there's no more seats. :)

Brad Mitchell 01-05-2009 10:24 PM

Perhaps if registration was $150 from the start attendance would have been higher. $250-$300 is simply too much.

I'm not happy about having paid $250 instead of $150. However, at the end of the day, they're running a business and if this is what they need to do so be it.

I've had a return on every event I have attended for the last 8 years. So, although I'm not happy about some of the things I see - I still can't complain about the results.

Robbie 01-05-2009 10:29 PM

Fucking real nice. I registered Claudia-Marie and I a couple of days ago and thought to myself that it really sucks to pay $300 a piece for badges that pretty much don't get you anything. At least at The Phoenix Forum there was food and drink and lots of stuff to do. $300 a badge to walk around Rain is just too much. Especially since the Internext show itself doesn't sponsor anything at all. Just takes the money and gives back nada.
Oh well, I guess I've snorted more than $600 in an hour before lol Sleazy come, sleazy go.

Registration Fees
Discounted rate ends November 19, 2008
$250 Before November 19, 2008
$300 After November 19, 2008

Looks like the $150 discount is some sort of error.

EDIT: No error here!

Hey, I'm simply saying I get lemons thrown at me all the time. I'm in the business of making lemonade. The amount I paid is too much. Every Internext I feel like I'm grabbing my ankles to buy a badge.

But... and it's a big butt... Even if it was $400 or $500 I would likely still attend. Its a six digit return on almost every show that I attend. I can complain, but not so much, really.

It's not like I don't end up spending 5-15k in travel and hospitality when I fly solo at these things, anyways. Those drinks at the hotel bar I'm always buying aren't free... and it's not quantity at the shows that has value, it's just finding a few quality conversations at every one.

Brad
