It's a brilliant idea to have a book loaded with all the photos and images of of our beautiful stadium during the building stages.

But I would imagine it could take quite a while to get it all together, picking out the best from each stage of the process. JS and Everest have taken some superb pics, and there's been quite a few others who have contributed over the last couple of years, so sorting out the best from what must now be thousands, will take ages.

What chance of a falmer build book containing lots of the amazing photos taken and all the stato stuff about the stadium?

The bookies won't be taking bets because they'll be looking at a big loss (unless you bet against one being done)

How much would people consider a reasonable price for an "All singing, all dancing" stadium build photographic book?
Bearing in mind the quality of the stadium, assuming the book is of a status befitting this standard, how much?

I will probably buy it regardless of price, but I reckon £20 - £25 might be acceptable to most people (assuming hardback, full colour, gloss etc). Obviously difficult to say without knowing how big and how many pages it's going to be.

As soon as you hit £30 it seems quite a lot for a book.

£25 seems about right, although would possibly go up another £10 if it was top quality printing!

If it had a pop up west stand £30 would be a fair price,a scratch and sniff south stand if infested by palace would be super!

yeah I'm in the 20-25 quid category if it was worth it , very rarely do I spend more then a tenner on a book but if this was of slightly coffee table quality I'd go to that much.

If the pix are a decent size and nicely annotated, this is a one-off I'd pay £40 for.

I'd happily pay £30 ish. But then this book would be a unique insight into probably the most important period in our history and if it's hardback and packed with great photos, then maybe £35 or thereabouts, JS.

Why don't you see if you could get in touch with Bennett Dean who takes photos for the club (well, he used to. Not sure if he still does). Perhaps the club could put you in touch with him. He produced the fabulous "We are Brighton" books.

Thanks for all your responses.
It looks like £ 30 is acceptable?
This is very useful as far as what type of book will be produced.
I'll pass this on to my colleague.
Cheers.
