We get questions now and then than aren’t answered in our FAQ section but are certainly worth mentioning.
Do your prices depend on how many kids are at the party? Is there some kind of sliding scale?
A nice mom from Hollister asked this recently. The short answer is no, our pricing structure is fixed. There are a couple of reasons why we don’t adjust according to a head count: 1) Our expenses are the same, whether there’s just one kid or one hundred. Fuel, oil, maintenance, insurance, etc don’t change with the number of guests. 2) It’d be difficult to adjust the pricing “on the fly”. Imagine a parent says there will be 10 kids attending a party, and as the party progresses, 10 more show up. Keeping track of which kids are paid for and which ones aren’t, then charging the parent retroactively is too much of a headache.
Think of us like a taxi or limo…it costs the same no matter how many passengers there are. Except we’re stationary. 🙂
Can we have extra party time, but in exchange for food? How about just 30 minutes more?
Believe us, we understand wanting to stretch your dollar and get the most value for your hard-earned bucks. But as we mentioned above, fuel, oil, wear and tear on our generator, etc are costs we have to bear. We will have employees soon, so extra time means they have to be paid too.
Additional hours are available at $99/hour (no fractions thereof), and are only available if our schedule allows and upon owner’s approval.
Can I rent your add-on games separately?
This one, from a family in Salinas, caught us off guard! No one had asked this before.
If you didn’t already know, we offer 3 “add-on” non-video games that can be ordered with your Video Game Party for an additional $25 each or all 3 for $60 (as of this writing, subject to change).
Our answer ended up being a big YES! As long as our customers are willing to take responsibility for any loss or damage to the games, why not? However, for now this will only be available to folks within 30 minutes of Marina.
