Through Creation Entertainment until February 11, you can get: William Shatner on choice of six photos personalized with your name with Boldly go! or Beam Me Up! and his sig for $120 + shipping. Patrick Stewart on choice of three photos personalized with your name with "Make It So" and his sig for $100 + shipping. Sure it's outrageous. But if you missed them at other cons, here's your chance for a legit auto personalized to you. www.creationent.com/auto-sign/index.htm |

Pfff what a rip off. You can get patrick for free at the stage door or via the mail when he's doing a play and you send it to that theatre.
I only paid 20 pounds during a convention last februari (2005) and saw him in person. A week later met him again at the stage door, so got him for free as well.
I would just wait, it's a matter of time before he does another convention, esp. with the star trek 40st anniversary this year .

Pfff what a rip off. You can get patrick for free at the stage door OK, but: -the Flight to London isn't free -the Hotel you have to sleep in isn't free -You need to drink/eat, which isn't free -Transportation (to the stagedoor, the hotel, airport, etc) isn't free -Airport taxes aren't free I bet all this is more than the $ 100 ;D |

Not to mention all the other stagedoors you can visit and there might even be a premiere if you plan it well. So you'll have a lot more sigs and meetings with celebs. Oh and it's 100$ not including postage/ shipping & handling and knowing creation that's a lot. Oh yeah and did I mention the dude signs TTM as well? If you get him Via Venue that is. |

I already knew what you meant  Still, for a non-European citizen it's a great opportunity. |

For Shatner I wouldn't pay that. I've seen him, and was not that impressed. Have a non-personalised, but would not shell out that much just for my name.
For Stewart I might, but like Martine explained, there are ways to get it cheaper... (mine was free when he visited Noordwijk for the promotion of the TNG DVD boxes)

About the price: it's a lot of cash....still, there are several names I would pay that amount of money for.

I agree, they are both meetable, even if Shatner doesn't usually personalise at events (except for SOME lucky people like my boyfriend :-D).
