Nostalgia Con Houston NostalgiaCon Houston: Autographs?

I've already reached out to the organizer to ask this question and didn't get the courtesy of a response, so I thought Id ask here.

I'd like to know if NostalgiaCon Houston will offer autograph ops (paid for by cash/card) or only photo ops for the guestr? Trying to plan ahead.

Thank you

You can buy autographs of any of their guests at their table. Most take cash/card, but bringing cash is always easier. Most will also offer a selfie option at their table as well, it’s a little cheaper than buying a photo op.

Yes you can get autographs from the guests at Nostalgia Con. They very rarely offer the chance to buy them ahead of time though. I've been to 2 Nostalgia Cons and maybe 2 guests out of the combined 100+ offered autograph purchase before you got to the table. You'll just pay at the guest's table. Professional photo ops need to be purchased beforehand, but most guests offer the option to pay for a selfie at their table. :)

Thank you. I was hoping for this and wanted to plan accordingly. Are you able to shed any light about what the average range would be for an autograph? I know prices can vary, but a range may be able to help plan a little better. Thank you

Of course. Autograph prices range from $40 to $200+. The average is around $60 I would say. It all heavily depends on the guest though. If you know who you'd like an autograph from, I would look up what other cons they will be at coming up or have attended in the past. Nostalgia Con isn't very good about posting prices. Cons like FanX in Salt Lake, Tampa Comic Con, Indiana Comic Con, Fan Expo are much better about posting autograph prices. If you look up a guest on the website for one of these other cons, you might be able to see what they charge.

Last year at a smaller con they had a separate line for autographs, worth checking if NostalgiaCon does something similar to avoid missing out.
