Chesskid Fide Challenge oversized?

Isn’t 25 dollars per kid heavily overprized? It’s a one day, online tournament for under 8 and under 12.

You also get 2 months gold membership worth 20 dollars, but my kids don’t speak English so that’s quit useless for them. I could afford 2x 25 but many many people in the world can’t...

Overpriced?

I don't know.  You have to decide.

Overpriced, not oversized. Think I can’t edit a title.

Yeah, overpriced, as in too expensive. I mean, great idea! Gather around the world al play chess! But 50 dollars for an afternoon of fun for the kids is for me a huge amount.

They expect thousands of kids to join... . I really would expect something in the 5 to 7,50 dollar range. But maybe it’s me. Never looked at a chess tournament for kids before. Maybe this is normal.
