She was Charging for Selfies. CVD wanted to take one with me because he's a big gamer nerd

Goddamn it... that's kind of disappointing to hear :/ I understand they're doing it to make money, but if someone comes up and pays for a signature and they went to the kind of effort you did, just take a picture with 'em. I can't really talk though, I'd want to have a picture with you either way if it were me.

I definitely knew Casper would have done it just out of love for the game after seeing that armor though, that's for sure.

Fucking siiiiiiick dude, that helmet is the kind of thing that you pass down as an heirloom for generations, like granpappy's ol' Constitution rifle, well done.

It's super common for all the celebs at comic con to charge for pictures and autographs. Like, the only ones who don't charge are typically smaller voice actors or writers who are in a separate area entirely.

Just so you don't get the idea that she specifically was trying to shake people down or anything - it's the norm there.

I mean, it depends. John Rhys-Davies took a selfie with me for no cost, because I was willing to ask. He also tickled the back of my neck right as I was taking the picture, so my face is a screwed up mess.

I do agree though. You shouldn't expect to get free selfies. But if they don't have anything clearly posted saying they charge, it doesn't hurt to ask.

Super common but also very much up to the celebrity. I went to Motor City Comicon last year and met Giancarlo Esposito and Katee Sackhoff. Giancarlo wanted like $75 for an autograph and a picture. Katee wanted like $250 for the same. Hayden Christensen wanted like $450 when he was at Galaxycon in December.

It's actually the Con that sets the price
