    In 2021 I bought space at the ParaUnity Convention that was supposed to be held at ****************** fall of 2022. I paid $225 for ******** space. On June 8th I got an email stating that the event now only would NOT be at ***********, but moved to a community center with MUCH less traffic and space. Also, the dates would be changing. I book my fall shows well in advance as it's my busiest time of year as an Artist. The new dates and space will not work for me. I requested a refund. Then I got told there would be no refunds. He said he didn't have the money to do it. However he has recently hired new guests for the event, and gotten some new vendors to replace the ones that had to drop out, even though he kept advertising that I and other vendors would still be there and telling people I was. I found this out when someone who follows me told me they were looking forward to seeing me there. There are a lot of us who have lost money to this man and he now refuses to have contact with us, refund us, and yet keeps using us and our names to bring people in and sell tickets. And now we're finding out he's done the same thing in ********* and likely ******. People need to warned about him, and I know a lot of us would like our booth fees back. Artists spent the last couple years with no revenue and this guy is taking advantage of us trying to get back on our feet.

    My sister and I purchased tickets for an event in ***** called ParaUnity hosted thru Odyssey Events. It was scheduled, Dec. *****, 2021. We purchased VIP passes the for the night before, Dec. 9, 2021. It was $75 per person. I paid for both our tickets $150. On Dec 9th, we were informed it was cancelled. See below for email thread trying to get my refund. Although we both lost money with taking an extra day from work (mine was unpaid since I just started a new job), as well as an extra night hotel expense we didn't need, I'm looking to get refunded the ticket cost $150. My last email 03/19/22 asking for an update: We paid for our VIP tickets a year ago in March 2021.
