    Quoted from epthegeek:

    The recent reputation of expo is of a show in decline, and now it’s got a major shake up surrounded by lots of dumb drama.

    Quoted from mikepin:

    The purchase of the PINBALL EXPO name was somewhat a hostile takeover I was given the right to do a show AND The contract at the Westin Mr Berk announced several times he was doing a show somewhere else and a . month earlier After I cashed his first payment then he told Westin it was his.

    It would seem that Ep is correct...Not sure I want to go to the show this year or not...

    Quoted from Phat_Jay:

    Just checked my reservation, and it appears it was cancelled.

    If you have a confirmation number for your original reservation couldn't you call to find out who canceled it or why it was canceled?

    Quoted from Phat_Jay:

    I called and they were unable to give me a straight answer. They were able to get me one room at 300 night.

    If you had a confirmation number and had a rate for the original reservation I don't know how they could cancel your reservation without letting you know and then not honor that rate. If they can find one room for $300 then surely they can find you two rooms at your original rate. I'd bug them until they tell you how they canceled your room. If they can't give you a straight answer then they should put you in a nearby hotel at your original rate.

    Like Tilt seller said, when I make reservations I never check to make sure it's still there before I travel. I assume that if I have a reservation and a confirmation number that I'm good to go.

    Quoted from Phat_Jay:

    Just irritated.

    You should be irritated as you had a reservation with a confirmation and you didn't cancel it. They should be able to tell you how it was canceled.
