• Option to purchase one Mini-Con Golden Ticket package per each Primus Golden Ticket package. This option adds $100 to the Mini-Con Package price.

See what I mean? It's totally dependent on whether or not you're a member of the TFCC, and what you want, or if you know someone.
The CHEAPEST...if you know someone who has a Primus package and you're a TFCC member you can get in for the weekend for $90 ($120 if you aren't a TFCC member) HOWEVER if you don't know someone who has a Primus package willing to make you a "Mini-con", you have to get a Protoform package which will run you $150 if you're a TFCC member, $225 if you're not AND you don't even get to attend the HOF dinner or the Casino night for that price...
The MOST expensive it can get for one person, you're looking at the Primus package ($340 for club members or $415 for non-members) + the golden ticket (another $300). So $640 if you're a member, $715 if you're not...
