This is the site for presale of photos with actors at Dragon*Con.

I won't be buying any photos with Patrick Stewart. No way am I paying
$200 for two photos with him. I'll just have to admire him from afar.
And he is only doing 200 photos a day on Sat and Sun.

No information on Leonard Nimoy yet. ( Read more... )

$200.00 a pop is out of the question. Maybe an autograph. THe ones with Gareth and James last year went for $90.00 Gareth's $30,00 and James $60.00. You would think doing a combo pic they would have a set price for that.

I would love one with the BSG cast but not sure how much an entire cast one would cost.

Yep, $200 should include a few extras. Like a kiss on the mouth and meal at the very least.

I still can't wrap my mind about celebrities charging money for autographs. I hope our guys here never catch whiff of that, hee. Can't wait to see your piccies. Wish I could come too!

There are charges for photos with a photographer with each actor. The photos are pretty good. You get one pose and a few seconds with the actor. Patrick Stewart is charging $200 for two photos. He is only doing 200 photos a day for two days ( ... )

Oh, I know how it all works. I saw James in Cardiff last year. I just still can't wrap my mind around it. I mean, we don't have cons here, but you go see an actor/singer where s/he plays/sings, you go backstage afterwards and ask for autograph or pic for free. Shrug.

It is very different here I guess. James doesn't personalize the autographs here, but I saw he did in the UK for one event at least. It's a business to make money so I don't blame them for charging, but Patrick Stewart's charge is a bit high.

Bloody hell! That's expensive For Patrick!! Why is he charging that bloody much?

Last year James' photos were $60 for each one. That was the highest charge. Guess Patrick thinks highly of himself. High price and limited number of photos. I'll just get a look from afar and move on to an actor who is friendlier. Last year so many of the actors enjoyed talking to and spend time with the fans. I got turned off by Kevin Sorbo because you had to pay a fee just to see him. Then a fee for an autograph and another for a photo.

He really does think highly of himself. I am shocked!

We saw many actors just walking by while we were waiting for photos and such. Many were very friendly, stopped and talked. Some were surrounded by their "people" and didn't want to be bothered. So my feelings about certain actors changed after that fan event.

Tommy talked to Michael Rosenbaum in the men's room while they were washing their hands. He recognized Tommy from when he signed an autograph and joked around with him.

Wow - $200 that's a huge amount ... I wonder if he will get many takers at that price.

Keep saving - how many photos will you get with James? And, if you don't get all 3 will you have photos with the others anyway?

kudagirl June 27 2009, 16:26:15 UTC

Not sure how many I will buy with James. Want at least two. I want photos with Charisma and Julie also. Their charge is only $30 each. Would love to have one with all three of them, edenskye and rivertempest cause that would be awesome to remember our first time meeting and adventure together at Dragon*Con.

I am hoping that James,Charisma and Julie do a panel discussion. I would be in heaven if they did.

debris4spike June 27 2009, 16:39:57 UTC

The first time I saw James was when I got an autograph at Collectomani 3 years ago - what was meant to be a one-off thing!!!! Charisma was at the next table to James, so saw her - but I'm a one-person-girl!!!

That would be a great pic, of the 6 of you. I hope they do have a discussion - that would be fun, as well as interesting.

James had a panel Friday, Sat and Sun last year. I missed the Friday one and the dinner with him that night. All of the panels with him were totally wonderful.

I can't believe I will get to see him again. Hopefully this time I will be able to form words around him better. To get to meet rivertempest is so exciting. I only know edenskye (Tommy) in RL. So it's made of win. Can't wait!!!
