Anime North 2009 Group Buy (Feb 6 Update)

[Aznkid2000]

ok so last years group buy wasn't that successful since i kind of started late... so this year gonna get it done early to save everyone money ;)

ok so the price is
Before March 13: $40 CDN
March 14 to April 17: $50 CDN

So we are saving 15$, so far i have about 6 people that gonna come including me and my friends.

If you have any question feel free to pm me or post here and i will be happy to answer them.

Payment Methods
ok so the only method i can accept is cash, cheque, money transfer or money order.

just a question, how are we saving $15 when the price difference is $10.

When is the convention on?

I'm interested and can probably get some friends to get in on the action seeing how they love Anime even more than me.

the price for a single person for a weekend ticket is 55$ at the door, but if you get it early its 40 which equals to 55-40 = 15$ saving.

and it is on May 22-24

[XxXSnake23XxX]

once again count me in
if we get more than 6, we get a better discount?

[Aznkid2000]

nope still 40$

[angekfire]

I might be interested, and I am willing to bet my roommate will be.

[Aznkid2000]

ok put you down

[themagekiler]

wouldn't it be cheaper if we ordered our tickets now? I thought it was $45 for the whole weekend if order before march. I know it's $5 more but if you going for more then one day It would better?

No its 40$ as a group buy with certain amount of people for the whole weekend.

Just a quick question, as a person who only watch's anime and knows zero outside of the show(including directors, voice actors and manga which it may have been based on) is it worth it going to an event?

I have been watching anime for a long time now but only for the shows themselves and never bothering to look on more information about the production houses or writers of said show. Just wondering before i say i am in. Oh and by the way i have never been to one and the only shows i ever go to is the toronto international car show so i am quite clueless.

i was in same shoe as you in the beginning but it does get fun depending on your interest. But to be honest with you I don't really know the director, voice actors, producer and them either i mostly go around where they sell things and such.

I have never been to one of these. Could you please entail me with a few more details about it? Since it is over the course of 2-3 days, is it like a camp out/stay over thing? What exactly happens/is available as entertainment for these conventions? Does everyone dress as a character? Would really like to take my gf this year since we both enjoy anime, but for me $40 is kinda steep for something I don't know is worth it, so any answers would really be appreciated. Thank you :)

ok so answer,

you can either check into a hotel during the event (which you got to do early or else it would be full) OR you can just go home every night or so, you can also just pay for 1 day which is 35 for Friday and Sunday and 40 for Saturday.

For entertainment they have
* Guest Appearances
* Dealer's Room
* J-Pop and Moonlight
* Moonlight Ball
* Costume events including Saturday Night Masquerade
* Panels and Workshops
* Yaoi North
* All day and all night Video Rooms
* Con Suite
* Tabletop, CCG, and Video Gaming (including DDR)
* Go Tournament
* and more

and yea a lot of people dress up for this event mostly from Bleach and Naruto and such, you don't really have to dress up as anime character can just bring a Halloween costume :cheesygri

I think 40$ is pretty good deal for 3 days which you do plenty.

I was thinking on going last year... but my money problems just went $0 for me to go...

This time... I pretty sure I'm good shape to go, but something might kill me later on... so I might go this time and this group buy seems a good help on admission for sure.

I might ask my siblings and friends if they want to come with me and perhaps join in your group buy.

This is also... if I am attending... My very first convention and yes... pretty huge "otaku" on anime ^_^

I'm only interested in Bleach and Naruto, is it worth going for all three days or just one?
Do they have lots things to buy?

i find going to all three days a bit overwhelming... you can do almost everything in 1 day, at least thats how it was for me

Sounds fun

Count me in I always ended up paying $55 never had the people, how many people do you guys need anyways?

And this is not just for anime fans either I know nothing about anime like I only watched DBZ and Pokemon and Digimon when i was smaller its still awesome to see people cosplay the video game characters and enter a brawl/pokemon tournament if there is one as well as all the cool panels like last year I went to a phoenix wright panel and it was tons of fun talking about that series.

dam.....

I guess if we don't have enough member then we can pay 45$...

[Jubo]

Yeah, I never thought about the admission fees for Anime North till I spent all of my budget on PS2 Games....

Then again... by the time we get our tax returns. its too late to get our discounted admission? maybe? not to mention our extra expenses inside the convention ~.~;
