Talk:Eth0:2008 Summer/Pricing

Prijsindicatie

Gaat zowel over deze page als het prijsstukje op de website: Ik vind het een beetje krom dat er een prijsindicatie van € 200,- staat, met direct daar achteraan "we will make"/"price will be below" ... Als de prijs gegarandeerd lager dan € 200,- wordt, wat voor nut heeft die prijsindicatie dan? Een prijsindicatie van € 200 met daarachter dat we ons best doen om het alsnog lager te krijgen, OF de mededeling dat het sowieso < € 200 wordt zonder specifieke indicatie erbij lijkt me dan logischer. --Tancaliel 15:16, 16 January 2008 (CET)

Korting

Ik zie steeds 'without reduction' erbij staan, wordt het toch goedkoper als je eerder betaalt? Of wordt er een andere korting bedoeld? --Tancaliel 15:16, 16 January 2008 (CET)

price way to high

200 euro's is just way to expensive for 7 days..

People won't come if you are asking these kinds of fee's

Campzone is 310 euro's for 11 days.. And they have been running this party for years now, so they have a good reputation with their visitors.. This is a totally new event.

Ofcourse I'm well aware of the fact that these parties aren't cheap, but where did the times go when we paid 150 hfl for a party ;) (Oh wan99 the fond memories) :)

200 is just an indication, the goal is to make it less than that :) Chakotay 16:18, 17 January 2008 (CET)

I couln't find the text that says: "The price is 200 euro". The only thing i read is that the price is below 200 for the most expensive ticket, wich means (for as far i can understand English) the ticket won't be 200 euro's, but less.

Furthermore "most expensive ticket" implicates there are tickes that will cost only a certain percentage of the most expensive ticket (wich will be below 200, as said before). Dunno what tickets that will be though, but that wil show in time.

If my math is correct, 310 euro's for 11 days is about 197 euro's for 7 days, so this event will be cheaper than CZ :D Langhaar 19:20, 17 januari 2008 (CET)

Dinner

- meals are included in ticket  \o/
- Why are meals included in the ticket? We're promoting 'Linux', an OS based on choice, and we're making the on-site food mandatory?
  Not everyone will want to make use of the on-site food and we leave them with no 'openness'
- Erm, did you understand the concept of free food...? And who said the food was mandatory? If you don't want it, 
  just don't use it. (Langhaar 23:30 (CET), 25 januari 2008)
- It's not free, we're adding a few euro's to the admission price. So basically your forcing people to pay for stuff they might not want
  to use. Doesn't sound like the Linux way of thinking to me. (RedNalie 09:34, 26 January 2008 (CET))
- Ethics aside, this has considerable logistical consequences. If you have people sign up for food, you have a pretty good
  idea how many people will turn up to eat. If everyone is entitled to food, you have no idea how many will actually eat it.
  That means that you risk either large wastage of food if you guess too high or considerable shortages if you guess too low.
  For that reason alone I'd suggest making food included in price an option rather than compulsory. However it would be
  good for all organisers/volunteers to eat together every day (team-building plus giving an opportunity for assembly
  speeches), so making it either free or subsidised for that group would make sense. (dion_b 12:37, 12 February 2008 (CET))
