About the application

THIS IS THE APPLICATION FOR VENDOR BOOTH SPACE, AKA MARKETPLACE AND EXHIBITOR SPACE
 
Fandoms represented include Comic Books, Movies, TV Shows, Wrestling, Anime, Cartoons, Horror, Toys and Games.  As such, we offer access to fans (buyers) but bear no responsibility for sales of your product. We will offer that Fayetteville is a military and working class community, and we have seen vendors do very well when they understand that economic driver. We also do our best to keep Booth Prices as low as possible (with no additional increase this year, even though our costs have increased) to give even more opportunity for our vendors to profit. Simply put, the typical guest at our shows has the ability to pay for, but not OVERPAY for items.
 
We define "VENDOR" as a person or company offering something for sale, or resale. For Fayetteville Comic Con, these items often include Comic Books, Toys, Posters and Prints, Clothing and Apparel, Specialty Foodstuffs, Arms and Armor, Movies, Books, Collectibles, statues, plushm action figures, Pop Funko, etc., typically and best themed to traditional or emerging "Geek" fandoms.
 
We define "EXHIBITOR" as a third-party advertising, but not actively selling goods and services, or other events, or businesses, or charities.
 
WE HOLD ALL VENDORS, EXHIBITORS, THEIR STAFF AND FAMILY TO OUR ZERO TOLERANCE POLICY. VIOLATORS WILL BE REMOVED AND NO REFUNDS GIVEN.
 
We understand that some "GEEK" properties (Star Wars, Marvel, DC, Harry Potter, etc.) require licencing for use. With that understanding, Fayetteville Comic Con Inc., Raleigh Llama Productions, Inc., the Cumberland County Civic Center Commission, OVG360, Oak View Group, and their agents, representatives, and employees bear no responsibility for violations or infringements. All risk is born by the Vendor.
 
Revenue generated from the sale of goods in North Carolina is subject to Sales Tax, enforceable by the North Carolina Department of Revenue. For record, we ask for a Tax ID during registration, but the supply of that identification is at the discretion of the seller. With that understanding, Fayetteville Comic Con Inc., Raleigh Llama Productions, Inc., the Cumberland County Civic Center Commission, OVG360, Oak View Group, and their agents, representatives, and employees bear no responsibility for violations or infringements. All risk is born by the Vendor.
 
Bootleg Merchandise is discouraged, although we will not actively police this issue, as we hold no expertise in product. If bootleg merchandise is brought to our attention, we will investigate and communicate concern to the vendor in question. We hold a responsibility to our attendees to deal in a fair and equitable fashion. Any risk associated with this topic is borne by the Vendor. In stark contrast to an item being fake, a bootleg piece as no intention of marketing itself as the real thing, the aim of a bootleg piece isn’t to copy existing pieces, only to creatively appropriate brands, mimicking the original but making it the designers own, resulting in a unique looking product.
 
We do not allow the sale of pirated, fake or counterfeit items. If these are brought to our attention, we will investigate and communicate concern to the vendor in question. We hold a responsibility to our attendees to deal in a fair and equitable fashion. Any risk associated with this topic is borne by the Vendor, including the acknowledgement that Fayetteville Comic Con can, at any time, restrict the ability of a Vendor to sell the item, where continued violation may result in removal from the Marketplace.
 
Corner Booths are 10 x 10 and have full curtain, two 8' tables, chairs and access to electricity (bring extension cord and surge strip to connect). Corner booths may be combined to form an Endcap (two corners), but these are limited.
 
In-Line Booths are 10 x 10 and have full curtain, one 8' table (clothed and skirted), chairs and access to electricity (bring extension cord and surge strip to connect). In-Line Booths may be purchased in sets up to three in a row.
 
This is an electronic agreement and by submitting, you are validating and approving this agreement electronically.
 
Location assigned is the discretion of event management. All effort is made to lock space at least 21 days prior to the event, but last minute cancellations or additions may cause assigned space to change.
 
All vendor booths must be paid for at registration. No alternate arrangements can be made, unless you contact FCC first, or have an established pay-at-the-show agreement.
 
In general, Load-In starts at noon on the Friday and goes until 10:00 PM. Additional load-in may occur on Saturday from 7:00 AM until 9:00 AM, with the show floor opening at 9:30 AM and closing at 6:00 PM. Vendors and Exhibitors may access the show floor on Sunday at 8:00 AM with the show floor opening at 9:30 AM and closing at 6:00 PM. Load out must be complete by 10:00 PM on Sunday.
