In the past have the quantities been limited to the person or to the packages the person has registered. For instance if I purchased and registered 2 packages will I be able to buy double quantities of the exclusives as long as the supplies last?

ya i noticed a some golden ticket dudes in line from online stores back in line friday to scoop up another set of 3 of everything. which cleared everything out even the shitty attack chopper. i think the truck sold out first which was weird.
but ya the dragonhawk & indy truck were pretty much the worst vehicles they couldve picked and at just ridiculous prices. i bought one of each i was like F it cause i was with my little dude and it was our first con and he played with them in the room. i ended up selling the chopper tho for what i paid for it $75. i was like thank god some1 bought it |

We recently addressed all the same questions in another post.
Attendees got an ID badge that had spots on it for each exclusive. As you bought the item, your badge was punched. Gold Ticket holders were able to buy multiples. If I remember correctly, last year everything was sold out Friday night. Now I was towards the front 1/3 of the line (waited 3 hours) and was able to get one of each. Yes, trucks sold out first (if you do not count them not bringing all of the 2-packs; half were left in TX). There were only 500 trucks. 600 Helicopters, 650 3-packs and 1000 2-packs produced. |

The price increas from 2011 to 2012 was a huge %. To hear that prices are going up again is not a surprise but I will be curious what % it is going up. Savage defiantly will get as much as he can and I'm sure a few items like last years Indy truck and Helicopter will sell for the same amount the club offers it or even lower on the secondary market.

Badge punching began in 2012.

The reason inask is I'm picking up a set for a friend of mine who is currently serving overseas and he was hoping I could also get the attendee items for him as well. I am not sure what to do if I can't buy doubles. I hope I am able to hook him up otherwise I'll have to fight him for the ones I grab for myself and I'm pretty sure he can kick my ass

Not sure where the Texas sales tax comes into play considering this year the items will be purchased in Indiana and last year was in NOLA.
Indiana sales tax is 7% Last year's NOLA sales tax was 9% I think. Last year's numbers: 2-pack (limit 2 per person) - $58 3-pack (limit 1 per person) - $69 Truck (limit 1 per person) - $99 Helicopter (limit 1 per person) - $75 Footloose (limit 1 per MEMBER) - $30 Loose Footloose (limit 1 per member) -$25 Paratrooper Figure (limit 1 until Saturday) - $30 2011 Was 2-pack - $45 Stinger - $60 Moccasin - $35 Para Tele Viper - $20 Cobra Commander - $22 Carded Dial Tone - $25

I hear ya man it is a huge jump and I fear this year will be the same. I just hope we get better vehicles this year because the Indy truck for $100 plus tax was brutal and not worth it, same with the helicopter for $75. I have no problem paying more money o. Items I just hope the club gives us something worth the price hike.
