Finally I see there is a major convention in town, and its only 16 miles from me.. And then I link onto the site and see the prices.. Is it me being a bit mean here or is this a complete rip-off, in these hard times we are going through??? http://www.magicconvention.co.uk/Regist ... ation.html"

£180 for 5 days looks pretty reasonable to me, especially considering the price of specialist professional conferences.

Don't forget

A 5% surcharge will be added to all on line transactions

Seems a bit steep to me, especially as online trading is so prevalent. IMHO they ought to be pleased that people want to attend and pay for the privilege without adding on extras like that. There again, I'm a well known cheapskate....

Yes but they are desparate for the money, just a word of warning the IBM conventions are not what they were. A lot of the main dealers do not attend any more - that should tell you something!

Five days seems like a hell of a long time to be at a magic convention. Mind you, it's just a short journey over the Cat and Fiddle for me.

Hmmm... Decisions, decisions...

Well, after a long think about it, may just go for the day.. Not sure what day yet??

Seems very pricey to me. This is not FISM.
