Having traversed AX on that badge as press (on the rare occasions you get them to actually honor it on site) it always seemed overpriced to me. As a press member it would have been impossible to cover the event without it (which effectively meant it was impossible a lot of the time, since most of their people either didn't know press was supposed to be treated as premier or knew and actively refused to honor it), but if I had paid what they were asking I would certainly have felt shortchanged.
