Oops - Pricing error!

So after the release came out today about pre-reg for east being open, we got a few emails from folks about them registering when it was $50 as opposed to the early-bird pricing of $45. We double checked, and there were a few of you that got in before we were able to institute the $45 rate, so we're going through right now and making sure those folks get refunded the fiver. I have no idea how this happened, but hey, we caught it, so all is good.

Sorry about that!

Some guy.

    While you're here Khoo, can we get a comment about when the 2008 PAX DVD will be hitting the online store?
    Some people have been asking about it. http://forums.penny-arcade.com/showthread.php?t=100111

    Mine smells like Khoo.

    I invite you all to smell your five dollar bill and tell us all what it smells like.


    I was not expecting a refund because I thought I had gotten the reduced rate.

    For those of you who may be curious, here is the contents of the letter that the five dollar bill was concealed with:
    October 28, 2009

    Hello PAX Attendee!

    We had a glitch on the web and realize we owe you $5. Sorry
    about that.

    Looking forward to seeing you in Boston!!

    Hey, I just noticed an inconsistency. (I don't know if this is the right place to bring it up). On the front page of registration it says that early bird rates are available until December 31, but on the form itself it says November 29. Which is correct and can the other be fixed?

    Thanks!

    Gabe listed early-bird pricing ended December 31st on the front page, so I'd assume it's then.

    <+Arco> You can totally bone with a baby in there. If you bump up against something, just apologize to the little dude and adjust.

    I agree with your logic and am looking for an official response.
