We&#8217;re not distinguishing between Fan and Pro tables\nthis time around (although if you&#8217;re after a con table, please contact us\nin advance; it may be that we can arrange a table-swap, to promote future\nRedemptions at your convention instead).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"memberships\">Memberships<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>As the Dealers Room is in the convention&#8217;s function space, <em>all<\/em> people staffing a table must have their own convention membership. A fan dealer is likely to spend most of the con attending programme items, so would normally have a full convention membership, but a pro dealer will probably spend most of each day on the table. Therefore, we have a &#8216;Dealer and Dance&#8217; membership category, which grants access to the Dealers Room and the evening ceilidh\/disco\/whatever event, so pro dealers can let their hair down while the Dealers Room is closed. Since these memberships don&#8217;t grant access to the rest of the programme, they&#8217;re a lot cheaper &#8211; only \u00a310 each.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"booking\">Booking<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>You can book tables when you join Redemption. Our on-line booking form allows you to select Dealer and Dance or any of the other membership types, and near the bottom of the booking form, there is a section for &#8220;Dealer Tables&#8221;:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Tables: Enter the number of tables you require. They&#8217;re \u00a315 each.<\/li><li>Fan tables vs Pro: This is just for our records. It doesn&#8217;t affect your booking.<\/li><li>Electricity: Tick this if your stall needs access to a 13-amp power socket. (See <a href=\"#specifics\">Specific Requirements<\/a>).<\/li><li>Notes: Enter here any additional special requirements you might have.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>If you&#8217;re already a member, you can alter the number of tables on your booking (to add more) by the usual process of <a href=\".\/contact\">changing your membership<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you don&#8217;t want to pay via credit card, you can still book on-line, and send your cheque along later \u2013 see <a href=\".\/join-by-post\">the page about joining by po<\/a><a href=\"..\/join-redemption-by-post\">st<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"location\">Location<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The location within the hotel of the Dealers Room (or rooms) for Redemption &#8217;22 is still to be decided.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"opening\">Opening times<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Opening times for the Dealers Room will be displayed here when they have been finalised.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Normally, the Dealers Room is open during the day, and closed at the end of afternoon programming. Outside these times, the room is secured.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"food\">Food and drink<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If dealers order bar snacks, they can ask for them to be delivered to their table (non-dealers are not permitted to bring food or drink into the Dealers Room). There will be a supply of drinking water available in the Dealers Room.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"specifics\">Specific requirements<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have particular requirements for your stall (beyond access to\na power-socket), please let us know in advance, when you book (via\nthe &#8220;Notes&#8221; field). Don&#8217;t leave it until you arrive!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"conditions\">Conditions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The convention accepts no responsibility for any losses from dealers&#8217; tables.\nPlease be considerate of others if selling material that some may\nfind unsuitable, as there will be children at the convention.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The convention does not condone literary theft or the sale of pirated\nor bootlegged material. Dealers caught selling fake autographs will\nbe expelled from the convention with no refund.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"free\">Free tables?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>At earlier Redemption conventions, we offered a free table to each\nadult member staying in the hotel on the Saturday night. Since we&#8217;ve\ndropped the cost of tables to \u00a315 for all, this offer no longer\nstands.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"deposits\">Deposits?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Since the cost is only \u00a315 per table, we don&#8217;t ask for deposits, but\nwe take payment in full, up front.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"ondoor\">Booking tables on the door?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>It&#8217;s <em>possible<\/em> that you might be able to book one or more tables on\nthe door, when you arrive at the convention, but we don&#8217;t guarantee it;\nit depends on the remaining space available. We recommend booking early\nto guarantee a space.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>About the Dealers Room Table Types Rates Memberships Booking Location Opening times Food and Drink Specific Requirements Conditions Free Tables?
