I know that some programmes are worth a lot more than others but is this really worth £8 for Lincolns last game in the conference league?

I really hate the phrase
"few scanned together to save time"
If a seller is hoping someone will pay £9.60 for a 1980s non league programme surely he can take 2 or 3 minutes to provide a photo.

it's probably not 'worth' £8, but if that's what someone is willing to pay, then so be it. Ebay can vastly inflate prices of programmes that have something significant to them.

The guy has been trying to sell this programme now for some time, of course it's not worth 8 quid, 1 pound tops. Lincoln sold out on the day and did a reprint,I dont think there was any difference in that programmes and the original. Not rare so shop around, try Tom Cook in the Blues programme shop.

Just listed on e-bay the above programme for 99p, plus the other geezer still trying his luck at 8 quid

Was at the game for 2.15 and programmes had gone by then. Were rare for a short while afterwards, not any more, as ex league teams are 10 a penny now.

People think just because Limcoln clinched the title on this day that the programme is valuable and rare. It may well have been valuable and rare at 2.15, but a few hundred re-prints later.........

Maybe I'm misreading something here, but he's sold it for £8.00, not 'trying his luck for £8'

Obviously someone not prepared to wait...couldn't have seen the one listed for 99p, or the others that come up often for the same price. But like you said Burnly, if someones prepared to pay the asking price then good luck to the bloke.
