Farpoint 2011 Dealers Room Information and Rules

1. Tables are approximately 6 feet in length. Electricity is available with all tables. We recommend that you bring extension cords and other supplies to connect to the available outlets and secure the connections safely to avoid hazards such as tripping on a loose cord.

2. Table pricing is listed on the Farpoint Dealer Registration form. Each table comes with ONE convention membership. Additional individual badges are available and can be ordered at the same time tables are purchased. Please note that Farpoint requires that a NAME be provided for each person's badge; if the names are not provided when the Dealer registers they will be requested and added to the badges at the convention when the Dealer checks in.

3. Telephone lines are available upon request. Individual Dealers are responsible for paying the extra fee for the telephone line directly to the hotel. Phone line rates are set and collected by the hotel. The Dealer must indicate on the Registration form that they need a telephone line so that Farpoint can inform the hotel how many lines are required and where the lines will be needed.

4. Requests for specific table locations, including wall spaces, are accepted and Farpoint makes every effort to accommodate such requests. The downside of the central location of our Dealers Room in the Atrium is that wall space is limited. Early registrants have the best chance for their requests to be granted; however, Farpoint makes NO GUARANTEE to any Dealer on the space they will receive in the Dealers Room setup. A room diagram can be made available upon request to Laura Inglis, Dealers Room Coordinator, at wrprod@aol.com; please make sure that Farpoint Dealers room is in the subject line.

5. Individual Dealers are NOT ALLOWED to make any changes to the room setup, including swapping tables, without express permission from the Farpoint Dealers Room Coordinator. Violation of this rule may result in the Dealer being asked to leave the premises immediately.

6. If a Dealer wishes to sublet a portion of their table space or share their table space with another Dealer, they must inform the Farpoint Dealers Room Coordinator of this circumstance. Table sharing is NOT ALLOWED without permission. Violation of this rule may result in the Dealer being asked to leave the premises immediately.

7. Farpoint does not condone the sale of unlicensed products. In particular, we would like to remind photo dealers that Creation Entertainment holds the licenses for photos from many science fiction genre shows and movies. Please keep this in mind when ordering photos to sell at Farpoint.

8. Dealers' membership badges are numbered in sequence along with individual members' badges. Farpoint uses these badge numbers during autograph sessions for better control and efficiency during the session. Badge numbers will be announced in the Dealers Room during the session. Dealers should come to the autographing area when their badge number sequence is called. Dealers needing extra help (access issues, not able to leave their table for long periods, etc.) should discuss this ahead of time with the Farpoint Dealers Room Coordinator. Farpoint's normal autograph policy offers one autograph per badge, per guest, per day (Saturday and Sunday). Dealers purchasing more than one table will have one badge per table and can get one autograph per badge. Please note that this policy may differ from guest to guest, depending upon the individual agreement the convention negotiates with each guest. Some guests may be signing for a fee only. Farpoint will make every effort to publicize this information in advance. Individual Dealers wanting multiple signatures from a guest must ask Farpoint Guest Relations for a referral to the guest's agent or designated convention contact to make these arrangements separately.

9. Dealers may begin setting up their displays on Friday at 8:00 am. Dealers Room operating hours are planned to be 4:00 pm to 8:00 pm Friday, 10:00 am to 6:00 pm Saturday, and 10:00 am to 5:00 pm Sunday. The Dealers Room will be secured at the end of each business day, and overnight security arranged by Farpoint will be provided on Friday and Saturday nights. Individual Dealers wishing to set up Thursday evening may do so after 9:00 pm with the permission of the Farpoint Dealers Room Coordinator. Dealers setting up Thursday evening recognize that they are doing so AT THEIR OWN RISK. Farpoint does NOT provide overnight security on Thursday evening.

10. The Farpoint convention goes on regardless of weather conditions. Like any public exhibition, this means that memberships (including dealer memberships) are not refundable. However, if you feel that weather conditions preclude your safe travel to the convention, please contact our Dealers Room Coordinator as soon as possible. If we are able to re-sell your originally purchased dealer membership(s), your money can be refunded.

11. The convention is held in a hotel that does NOT allow pets, unless they are working service animals. This is a hotel policy that will be enforced.

12. Program book ads are available. Any Dealer interested in placing an ad in the Farpoint Program Book should contact Ethan Wilson, the Program Book editor.

Questions about these rules should be addressed to Laura Inglis, Dealers Room Coordinator, at wrprod@aol.com..
