Exclamation Friday deal breaker?

I just heard about this event and I was planning to attend in hopes of filling some gaps in my collection. However, I can only make it for Friday which leaves me with a few questions that might kill my plans.

#1: The event page says that the dealer room is not open to the public on Friday. Does this really mean that nobody will be selling Transformerstoys for the whole first day of this con? I'm really only interested in picking up some toys I'm missing, so this would be a deal breaker.

#2: I have read that only weekend passed will be sold on Friday. $20 for an afternoon of toy hunting sounded great! $50 for an afternoon of toy hunting sounds....less great. Especially if nobody is selling any that day.

I Know this is about as last-minute as it gets, but if anybody can give me some definitive answers about these things I would really appreciate it.

Thanks.

Friday is meant only for people who register for the whole weekend experience, and is intended mostly as a community get-together. Single Day admission is only available for Saturday and Sunday, and yes, the dealer room is only available on those two days.

Well, that's a bummer. Plans cancelled.

Thanks for the speedy response though! You saved me a heap of time/money.

Cheers.

Re: Friday deal breaker?

Thanks for the suggestion. I'm a pretty casual collector, and I enjoy the hunting as much as the having. Would rather wait for the opportunity to scrounge them up on my own. Sounds crazy, I know, but it's become part of my hobby.
