You can still get a full SDCC badge and a Museum membership for the low price of $1900

 23 JUNE 2024

If you lost out in both badge sales last fall and have been bemoaning your fate ever since - it's not too late! CCI has dished up a tasty and partly tax-deductible option for you: paying $1900 to get a badge and become a Museum member. 

If you pony up to take advantage of this offer, you'll get...

• A Preview Night badge
• A Museum Legend membership that includes general admission for 1 year, guest passes, swag, discounts and - mysteriously - "recognition." I'm assuming this means Legend members get their names carved into a wall or brick sidewalk like philanthropists of yore.
• A nice tax deduction minus the $455 market value

If you recall the old Ebay badge sales, this tracks in terms of dollars - and if you can afford it, it really does grant your Comic-Con wishes while giving money to a good cause. 

In other words, I would do it if I didn't have a badge. And if you're especially flush with cash? You can set this to auto-renew every year and skip the bothersome (some would say thrilling) stress of badge sales.

Sounds like a good deal to me.
