Why does it cost $15 bucks to get into the NARBC Reptile Convention? I do not think of myself as a cheap person and I am surely not poor, but It only cost $8 bucks at the IRBA shows. If you are only going there to look around with your family and maybe purchase nothing more expensive then $100-$200; $15 is pretty rediculous for an entrance fee to a Reptile Fair that with the list shown on their website, will not even have that many vendors this year at Anahiem.

Actually, the show is a lot bigger than the irba shows. I dont like the price much either, its because they are selling 2 day passes only, which isnt cool. They also have a second room now with space for something like 50 last minute vendors, so its going to be quite a show.

If you dont mind paying $8 for the IRBA show you will be very happy with the $15 we are charging. We are bringing you a much larger show with NATIONAL VENDORS and NATIONAL SPEAKERS and MARK OSHEA from ANIMAL PLANET. The cost to put our show on is WAY MORE than IRBA....or any other show for that matter. When you go to your kids t-ball game its cheap.....when you go to the Padres game....its not cheap. These are a few of the reasons for your WTF comment......if that helps answer your question great.....if you dont think our show is worth the $15 when you leave I will give you the $15 of your money back and you can go to IRBA.....and an extra $10 for gas.
