Agency charging money to submit demo for contest
View this Thread in Original format

Is this the norm? I don't know but having to pay $45 to enter a contest sounds a bit fishy to me.

What do you guys think?

Can't be right.

Mr.Mystery
Sounds like absolute bull to me.

I'm not digging the part where they ask you to write down your credit card number.

I've seen companies doing the same with applications/demo's etc. But those always gave a back your money as soon as you showed up. It was just to make sure the people applying where serious.

This organization doesn't give any reimbursement though. Total fail in my opinion. They seem very serious though. The application form has some information on there which could easily be double checked if you know where to look or whom to talk to. I'm quite sure it isn't a con, but 45$ a demo is ridiculous.
