If you are interested in selling or exhibiting in the Dealers' Room at World Horror Convention 2007 (WHC) prices are as follows:
The first table will be CDN$142.00 or US$125.00 with each subsequent
table booked costing CDN$113.00 or US$100.00.
If you wish to pay in UK Sterling funds, please enquire.
We are offering a special "Dealer's Badge" discount membership
of CDN$30.00 or US$25.00 below the current
rate of an attending membership (ie: CDN$85.00
or US$75.00 until November 10, 2006 and
CDN$107.00 or US$95.00
until March 9, 2007). You can purchase one discounted Dealer's Badge for every table booked and paid for, and each
Dealer's Badge will also cover a maximum of three tables (which means that if you
have 4-6 tables you will need a minimum of two discounted memberships; 7-9 tables you will need
three discounted memberships, etc.)
If you have already joined the convention at a higher rate, we will deduct the difference from your table costs.
Each table is 6 feet long x 2.5 feet deep. The Dealers' Room will comprise the
York A & B Rooms (as shown on the hotel map at the bottom of the page),
and space is limited. As a consequence, tables will be assigned on a first-come, first-served
basis with all payments due in advance.
In the event that all the tables sell out prior to the event, we will keep a waiting list
in the eventuality of any dealers cancelling at a later date.

Exhibitors assume all responsibility for arranging and paying for their

We welcome all kinds of horror-related merchandise and exhibits, but please note that World Horror
Convention 2007 reserves the right to refuse space in the Dealers' Room to any vendor that we feel is
unsuitable. All table locations will be determined by the convention. If you specifically require a
mains electricity supply for your table/display, please advise us beforehand and we will try to
accommodate you when assigning your table(s).
Dealers who require separate insurance cover must arrange it for themselves prior to the
event. World Horror Convention 2007 assumes no responsibility for loss, damage or theft of merchandise.
TO RESERVE YOUR TABLE(S) or for more information, please contact

U.S. & INTERNATIONAL VENDORS
The service of a customs brokerage firm is strongly recommended for all
products originating outside of Canada. This will eliminate the possibility
of items being held at the border by Canada Customs due to improper or insufficient
documentation, resulting in these same materials arriving too late or not at all
at WHC. Mendelssohn Customs & Transportation Services has been
appointed as our Official Customs Broker and Transportation Official.
Please contact the Toronto Mendelssohn office directly to assist you with your customs and transportation needs:
