What are the Bonuses of Pre-Reg that you don't get with Early-Reg?

[Roguethe]

Does anyone know?
I want to know what you get with Pre-Reg that you don't get with Early-Reg.
Or is it just the price difference?

With Pre-Reg, you get an awesome kickass laminated badge.
With Early, you get a paper badge in a plastic holder.

With Pre-Reg, you have the option of picking up your badge on the Thursday before Fanime, and also to the happenings that may be during that Thursday.
With Early, you pick up your badge starting on Friday.

With Pre-Reg, you have the satisfaction of knowing that you saved X amount of money.
With Early, you pay full price.

So... I guess you guys should all Pre-Reg to get the awesome perks. :D

there are also certain other perks that we only notify pre-reg members about. none yet this year, but i know there are a few in the works.

Thanks for all the info, but I'm still alittle confused. Early Reg? Pre Reg? What's the cutoff dates for all of those? is it too late to Pre Reg? Is only early Reg open now? both? I'm confuuuused.

It's only Early Registration now. Pre-reg was over since end of March.

With Pre and Early, Pre happens before Early.
The cutoff dates are always announced beforehand...

i'm confused, because the website says that if you registered before the convention, you can still pick up your badge Thursday night.  i just registered for early reg and that's still before the con, so do i get to pick up my badge Thursday night?

[ewu]

early registration may begin to register their membership on Friday.

I have notified the web team of this discrepancy.

How much were the pre-reg badges and the early-badges? Its really confusing to tell which one I am now. I paid $55 for my badges. Is that pre-reg or early-reg? The website made it sound like I could still show up on Thursday and get my badge. Whats up?

It would say on your account what you have. $55 = pre-reg and you can pick it up on Thursday.

Actually in my account it just says name, address, and stuff like that and that I paid in full. It doesn't say anywhere what my badge status is. Also, are we supposed to get something that we need to print out and bring with us? All I have is a receipt from paypal saying I paid, and an e-mail from fanime saying I paid in full. Do I need to print those?

I believe you've answered your question- though if you're wondering if it's early reg, you've paid $60 for your membership rather than the discounted price.

We don't send e-mails, but you will need to print out an electronic postcard which will be attached to your registration account closer to Fanime as well as a valid ID as per our FAQ.
