OZ COMIC-CON: Charged nearly $100 for nothing.

Oz Comic-Con:
Anyone with medical problems that may stop you attending,
be careful before buying tickets in advance.
"My epilepsy has prevented me attending twice now, 2012 and 2014 (details below).

Since I was lovely enough to book in advance, I was hoping since I couldn't make it, you could send me those years' DVDs instead.

I highly doubt out of my $97.22 spent, a couple of delivered DVDs wou
ld hurt.
(I did help 2012 succeed despite missing out on the live experience.  )

Below are the ticket details so you can double check my story, and this year's ticket has address, email and mobile number."


Oh and my email was lovingly re-subjected:
"Subject: *****SPAM***** General: Health preventing attendance twice question."

The response?

"Hi [MR],

We're very sorry to hear about the fact that you were unable to make our events. Sadly, we are unable to provide you with an event DVD. They are available to be purchased from our website, in the merch area.

Kind Regards,

Oz Comic-Con"


Yep, after giving them nearly $100 for NOTHING (full weekend tickets), they can't part with (estimated 
manufacture cost of) $5-10 DVDs they made, and then told me to GO BUY THEM ON TOP.

Be aware: You buy, no replacement/compensation/refund/ANYTHING.
