With any sats I much prefer seat only"s than packages so that I can make my own arrangements and more seats are generated in a particular sat. However with APAT, the expenses needed are probably higher than the buy in itself so what value would you put on an APAT event package?

I would probably go with paulies figure of around £300. Wouldn"t necassarily need to be a package with a booked hotel and travel as such. Seat + expenses still gives you the freedom of making your own arrangements. That said a pre booked package would suit others in the sense that they can"t be bothered looking for their own. lol
Paulie_D:
There are a few problems with "pre-booked" packages.
Firstly, you are chucking the admin at APAT who, basically, aren"t set up for it.
Secondly, what might suit one person might not suit another. E.G. Should the hotel be within driving or walking distance?
In my opinion, introducing an "Expenses" element leaves the whole thing open to abuse in that players might play with a view to "playing for a profit" by which I mean play the satellite with no intention of playing the actual event.
In the past, I"ve seen more than a few examples of players who have consistently won satellite seats that turn up on the exchange in short order....or perhaps I"m just a cynical paranoic. ;D

Ok so with a £300 prize rather than a £82 prize what would your buyin be and how many runners do you predict?

$22rb? As far as ppl playing the sats for profit, then just say seats are not transferrable.
