It was a whole thing in Uncensored. A scam email I received from Jan who was a bank president and had millions for me in her desk drawer if only I would contact her. As we often do, we took that and ran and it became a running joke.

Anyone know if convention tickets can be upgraded to APs?

No, the ones we bought and activated in February 2022 were activated at GS on first use (I donā€™t know if you have to do that anymore). Renewal automatically renewed on the expiration of that first pass (I had two certificates in my account). I did not have to go to GS for renewal.

With this news, I think that this old thread can be closed out

@vcka and @PrincipalTinker had this on their bingo card.

Do you still have to pay extra for photopass?

Iā€™m personally surprised that A) there wasnā€™t a larger price increase and B) that there was not any type of restructuring at all. I am guessing that ticket sales are finally starting to soften if there was no real other reason for keeping AP sales closed.

Yes. (as far as I know, we had to add it when we renewed in February)

Yes!! We only add it to one of our passes. Itā€™s annoying

That makes the incredipass with photopass (that used to be includedā€¦ cheapskates) is $1600. I have a Platinum Pass certificate on my account that I bought from Sams in 2018 for $829. That is an absurd price increase.

I think weā€™ll do Sorcerer Passes. Looking at blackout dates for the next year, none apply to us. If we want to upgrade for the next year after, we could do that.

For those who have passes, do you get a discount when renewing the pass? Or does it renew at the same amount?

And I know this has already been asked in this thread, but double checking:
If I buy the pass on April 20, and donā€™t go to activate it until July, my renewal would be in July for 2024?

Yes our renewal was a little less.

I think so, but since itā€™s been so long since they were sold :woman_shrugging:

Interesting! My 10-day ticket from last year, which had its expiry date pushed to Sept 2023 because of Ian, can that be upgraded? Because thatā€™d save me probably $800, and would be a no-brainer for me.

It might be a no-brainer anyway.

ETA: Ah, it would make the pass only valid through Sept 23, 2023, since that was the first use date of my ticket. Never mind. :smiley:
