GEEKFEST 2015 - Are you going?

[InSanity]

I got their really late but it was still pretty cool i liked most of the stalls i wont lie some were pretty :|

i have to say i was quite surprised with how busy it was. the festival is certainly picking up nicely.

i was however disappointed in the quality of the stalls. last year there was way more variety in my opinion. also there was no ATM and bearing in mind that most stalls run on a cash only basis you ran out of cash very quickly...

Me and my friend was talking about this even if you bring R1000 you would have run out of it very fast if you bough just a few things and somethings where up to 15K luckly he accepted EFT. I am glad I came so early I got to see the stores when they still had full stock and bough a sticker and one piece keychain.

I have to say i was also surprised by the amount of people that turned up... I think even the organizers were surprised...

The ATM think killed me... I had exactly R0 in cash... I cant understand why they didn't organize something like SnapScan? I was told there was an ATM, turned out it was in the Golf Pro Store, and the guy told me it ran out of cash in 45 minutes... Had to borrow cash from mates for drinks and things, which wasnt to much of an issue, but if I actually found something I wanted to buy i would have had problems...

Ja this was our problem. We had R600 which we spent on food and drinks between the two of us. i wanted some canvas prints, but could buy cause the guy only took cash oh and we entered the lucky draw thing...which neither of us won in the end. oh well next year i will go with more cash

I got there later, wanted to buy a cool beanie scarf with ears...then saw it was R350... I loved the cosplay though. Stalls were meh at best (excluding the actually geeky ones)

Next time try to make it early they had some really cool stuff at the start of the day and less people ment you had more time to browse. There was a shop with really cool figurenes one of "groot"(gaurdian of the galaxy) was also there but while I was standing there all 9 sold out .

Also a cool stall was the one with stickers and figurenes.
[MENTION=2226]InSanity[/MENTION] indeed some I don't know even know what they where selling there was this one stall with a shirt and a picture on it and a lady sitting at a table with some papers infront of her...

I just feel bad for the horses luckly nobody got kicked because they had the horses in a horible spot.
