Lee Majors is making his first convention appearance in 30 years at the Big Apple Comic Con, Oct 1-3 at the Penn Plaza Pavilion, 401 7th Ave in NYC!
Check out the details at http://www.bigapplecon.com
UPDATE: LEE MAJORS IS CHARGING $150.00 FOR HIS AUTOGRAPH & PHOTO! THAT'S RIGHT YOU READ IT CORRECT!
LEE MAJORS IS CHARGING $60.00 FOR HIS AUTOGRAPH & $70.00 IF YOU WANT A PHOTO TAKEN WITH HIM AT THE BIG APPLE CON. THIS WEEKEND!
SO THAT'S ALREADY $20 AT THE DOOR TO GET IN PLUS $60 TO FORK OVER TO LEE FOR JUST ONE AUTOGRAPH & THEN ANOTHER $70.00 FOR A PHOTO! $150.00 ALREADY!! THEN IF YOU WANT RICHARD ANDERSON'S AUTOGRAPH IT WILL COST YOU ANOTHER $25.00 & $30.00 FOR HIS PHOTO!
SO BASICALLY YOU WILL SPEND OVER $200.00 JUST TO MEET THEM FOR 5 SECONDS & MOVE ALONG! THIS PRICE DOES NOT INCLUDE EATING LUNCH OR GETTING ADDITIONAL AUTOGRAPHS FROM THEM OR OTHER CELEBRITIES AT THE SHOW! THAT WILL COST YOU ANOTHER $500.00 NO DOUBT!
I don't know about you, but sorry Lee Majors is NOT worth that much money!
Don't give in to these greedy celebrities so they can laugh at you and call you a sucker!
If Lee Majors needs money that bad, then tell him to get off his Bionic butt & go work a part time job at the mall & earn money the honest way!
Lee is just another washed up actor like William Shatner & Adam West who thinks they can sucker their poor fans! FORGET IT!
Hey
Lee did not even seem to want to be there , spent very little time with you , and his assistant was extremely rude and money hungry , she would pounce on you for the $$$ before he even finished signing something ,she really needed a slap upside the head for being so rude !!.
Not a very nice way for fans to remember someone , on the costs , well i guess there got to live as well , maybe they will figure out there charging to much ,when people don't bother showing up anymore ,or continue to walk by there table .
K.c
UPDATE 10-3-10: So as expected, I heard from several people that went to Comic Con on Sat. 10-2-10 & were very disgusted & disappointed by Lee Majors!
First up, that blond woman who was quick to take your money was Lee's 30 year old something wife! Lee did in fact charge $60.00 for his autograph & you were not allowed to take any photos or recordings. PERIOD. He had three Comic Con staff members surrounding his table including a huge 6ft4 Bodyguard who looked more like a bouncer! The whole thing was ridiculous & pathetic! One report said that there was one paying fan who tried to snap a quick photo of Lee as he was leaving the hotel for the day & a very angry Asian woman & Indian man staff members went crazy & blocked this poor fan from trying to take a photo! Give me a freaking break! This is a washed up bitter old man, not the President of the U.S.
Also according to other celebrities in the room, Lee did not have much of a crowd on Saturday!
And why would he when the man has the nerve to charge his fans $60.00 for his autograph! And you don't even get to take a free photo with him!
The Brady Bunch cast were there & they were only charging $20.00 each for their autographs and with each autograph you bought, you were able to have your photo taken with them for FREE. If you bought an autograph from all of them, then you were allowed to take a FREE group photo with them too!
BRAVO TO THE BRADY BUNCH CAST FOR HAVING CLASS!
Lee Majors, you sir are a DISGUSTING HUMAN BEING & you sir is going to BURN IN HELL for being greedy & treating your loyal fans like garbage!
I don't know what the owners of this show are thinking letting this man charge his fans such a price in this time of a world recession!
First of all, Lee Majors was already being paid big bucks by the owners to attend this show, so why the need to be even more greedy with loyal fans?
And Adam West & Burt Ward also charging their fans $50.00 was no picnic either!
But if you had to meet them & get their autographs, at least they would be polite & talk to you and for an additional $10.00 they would allow you a photo, but still with that price, they should allow FREE photos!
ALL I CAN SAY TO EVERYONE READING THIS IS TO NOT GIVE IN & SUPPORT THESE TYPE OF SHOWS ANYMORE UNTIL THE OWNERS BOOKING THESE WASHED UP HAS BEEN LOSERS CHARGE DECENT PRICES FOR THEIR SIGNATURES!
THE OWNERS OF THESE SHOWS DON'T CARE ABOUT ANYTHING OR YOU! IT ALL LOOKS SO PRETTY & NICE IN THE ADVERTISING, BUT ALL THEY WANT IS YOUR ADMISSION PRICE AT THE DOOR & THEN ALL BETS ARE OFF ONCE YOU ARE INSIDE!
There are very few celebrities who still attend these type of shows & only charge $5.00 if you bring your own item to be signed & that's the way it should be!
Most of these greedy celebrities do not claim taxes or give receipts when you fork over your hard earned money to them & they try to say it's a donation that you are giving them! So if it's a donation, then they shouldn't demand a certain price & just accept what fans can give them! Ok, if these out of work celebrities want to sell their own photos for $20.00, that's one thing, but to exploit their loyal fans who bring their own items to be signed is just pathetic!
And it's never going to stop and just keep getting worse!
Now the latest is that Lee Majors is pissed because he did not make the money he thought he would make from the show! Perhaps he was lied & tricked to do this show by the owners! They told him he could make $60.00 on autographs & $70.00 taking photos easily by thousands of fans, but sadly this was not the case on Saturday Oct. 2, and Lee took it out on the few fans that did show up to see him!
OWNERS OF THIS SHOW, IF YOU ARE READING THIS, LET ME TELL YOU SOMETHING...
This is a NO WIN SITUATION FOR THE FANS & THE CELEBRITIES!
In this case, Lee was not happy & the fans were certainly not happy!
If only you would have gone about this the right way & not gotten greedy!
You thought if you booked someone like Lee Majors that fans would show up. But you just wanted that admission price and then you couldn't care less what fans had to deal with inside!
Shame on all of YOU who operate this show!!
TO THE FANS: BOYCOTT THESE SHOWS BY NOT GOING TO THEM & LET THE OWNERS KNOW WHY!
Spend your money elsewhere where it is appreciated!
Don't let these scam artists win!
Peace
