WEEBCON 2024 | So many anime merch | my second year vending

#weebcon2024 #artistalley #smallbusiness #convlog
Back to Weebcon for the second time! ᕕ( ᐛ )ᕗ

I did not get the chance to add my total expenses to the video but here's a quick breakdown:
-Standard in-line exhibitor table cost: $700
-Flight: $500
-Hotel: $1,000 (3 nights)
-Uber to and from O'Hare airport: $112
This does not even include inventory costs and miscellaneous expenses.
Vending can be really expensive. Make sure to do your thorough research about cons before applying/committing to it.

Honestly, I have more things to say about this con but ran out of time and space to include all of it. Maybe that will be a discussion for another day. I know there are a lot of attendees that did not have a great experience with this con and I feel for them. The AA/exhibitor application was also not executed well by WeebCon. Going to add my concerns to their feedback form in hopes that they will improve things next year.
