As soon as I purchase the bag, I'll post here. If anyone doesn't recognise me at the Con, I'll be the one that looks as though I'm carrying my worldly possessions around

Good grief, that's a piece of luggage, not a goody bag!  I have the Artbox tote bag from two or three years ago and it's held up through many trips.  I'm looking forward to finding out what's in the bag, so then we'll know if people who are selling on eBay are including all of the items.

Looks like UPS will be getting my custom again  If you were willing to pitch base cards and the like, you don't think you could pack all of the good stuff in a carry-on? However many of the Artbox travel bags you get could probably be folded and fit into one of the bags, which could be checked with the rest of your luggage. Even if your airline charges for checked bags, that would probably be cheaper than shipping via UPS.

I just hope that big bag isn't a come on. You know you buy a bottle of medicine and the bottle looks so big. Then you open it and you have to look carefully to find the medicine. Tell me if I'm wrong, but isn't this the first time Artbox has advertised a goody bag on their website? You know the old saying. Good things come in small packages.

Last years goodie bag was a backpack and was advertised. The package I sent home in '07 weighed 36lbs  Although pricey, it was well worth sending via UPS rather than struggle through. I put comfort above a hernia

If I remember correctly, it is a prop card with one of the "Potter Stinks" badges. A friend of someone behind me in line got one. I saw one of the table that had part of Potter in it. One nice loose card I got was a Sheets/Sleeping Bag from MM2 but my sleeping bag has stars on it. I haven't seen one like that.

So that is what it was, I saw it from the distance, but I never asked to see it up close.
Yeah, the master set of MM2 that they are going to Auction off has a stars version as well, I had never seen a stars version of the sleeping bag until tonight....crazy that two show up.

That's the 2 case incentive, I've only seen 3 so far, one sold on ebay for 84 pound something and there's one on ebay now for 60 pounds and i have one in my collection, so i suppose it's quite rare

There have been quite a few of the variant sleeping bags on eBay. I've seen some sell in the $20-range, depending on how much of the star is showing. By the way, thanks to Bryan and jfer for the card info!

Many thanks for the exclusives info guys!. I particularly like the Three Card Quidditch Stand Material Prop Set. I like anything that has the Hogwart's Houses on. I also liked the House Ties SDCC Exclusive from the other year. I keep meaning to eventually get a set of those.  Will any of this year's Goody Bags containing all the exclusives shortly appear on Ebay do you think as i might keep a look out?.

There's a big difference between hobby and retail boxes. I wouldn't be happy to buy a good bag and pull a retail box when there isn't anything extra in the bag to make up for it. Bryan, do you have an approximate size for the duffel bag?

Thanks for the offer Bryan.  I will have to decline though i'm afraid as i have just realised looking at ebay that i have also got to buy the Exclusive Dumbledore bust and what with just buying the HBP case i am rather poor at the moment  and will have to limit myself to the amount of HP items i am buying. As i collect all the HP busts, Dumbledore will have to come first.
