So I just want to make this absolutely clear because I've heard two different things in this thread. Is there any way I can sell on Thursday without having to purchase a full weekend badge? If not, can I bring a helper that does not have a badge?

Do I need to prereg for the whole weekend? My plan was to only go one day this year, but the swap meet registration process asks for my prereg information.

Figured I'd answer since it seems to take a little while to get a reply back on questions right now:

In order to register for swap meet now, you do need to provide your badge number, and the only way to do that is to prereg.  And unfortunately in order to prereg, you need to pay for the entire weekend.  You could try to contact swap meet staff to work something out, but from years prior my understanding was there wasn't any way around this.

Your best bet is to bring your stuff with you anyway and hope for a stand-by space on Friday.  Keep in mind there do seem to be more people both selling and buying on Friday night so it'll probably take a while to see if you can get a spot at all.  Luckily there are a ton of spaces available in South Hall, and I don't think either day has been at capacity for sellers.  You wouldn't be able to sell Thursday night at all, since you can't buy a single day badge for Day 0.
This is correct.  You'll need a badge to be able to sell, and you can't even register until you have a badge.

Based on the numbers I have now as well as experience from past years, I'm anticipating that we will have space for at-con signups.  However, please keep in mind that they are not guaranteed and are sold on a first-come, first-served basis and only after the pre-registered people are all checked in.

So how do at-con signups work for swap meet? Is there a specific place I can go, or  should I just show up and stand in line with all the other sellers (except badge-less) and pray they let me in?

If I have a couple friends that want to help me carry my things in and just hang out with me while I sell (but they wouldn't be selling anything themselves), is that allowed?

Hi, I'm creating a group registration now. Can I pay for my pass, then have a friend log into my account and add a membership to my account and have them checkout again? This way each person can pay for themselves. Or do I have to create the entire group first and then pay for everything all at once?
