One caveat about registering for the NSS Convention online.
I started out going that route, but when I got to check out, they
wanted a whopping $8.63 fee for online registration (for two people).
I terminated the session and downloaded the paper forms. There
doesn't appear to be any
No, that fee is not out of line for online registration of events. In the last
year I've registered online for events as disparate as museum tickets,
concerts, beer festivals, and music festivals. The per person fee has ranged
from $3 to $10. Be glad that you have the option to mail in the
I forwarded Mark's email related to fees to Julie Schenck Brown who is the
convention chair. Here is her response.

Geary,
That explanation doesn't hold up because you can use a
credit card with the mail-in form but there is no fee mentioned (as
Bill Mixon also pointed out). I hope they don't try to tack one on.
I'm not sure that would even be legal because they would be charging
you more than you
They are using a service to do the registration online, it's that service
that is charging the fee, the NSS is not getting any of that.
If you mail in the form and use a CC. the NSS is having to eat the credit
card transaction fees (which they do for everything we process).

And you can pay with a credit card using the paper form, which has no
mention of any fee. So if they add one on that does not show in the
total you signed for, raise holy hell. -- Mixon
