The absolute upper limit you could justify spending on one programme.
Me personally, I have not paid more than a fiver for a programme yet as I only collect post 1995.
However I would probably pay up to £20 if I really, really needed an item but thats it. _________________ MY CURRENT PROGRAMME WANTS:
08/08/1996 Genoa

Interested in any boro teamsheets or tickets home/away any comp from 1995-present. |

I think I paid £40 at auction for the '59 Charity Shield, but that was a moment of madness!! Not that I now regret buying it, or that I paid over the odds (which I don't think I did?!), but like you, I had previously been snapping up programmes at 50p-£1 each, so that was quite a big jump! _________________ PLEASE check out my Prostate Cancer UK charity auction page here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1550474568596587/ |

Some of my wants are on Fleabay at present and break the £100 mark.....
Think the most I've paid for an individual programme has been £12.
Could probably justify £20 for the right ones.

I would quite happily go to £2,000 for a 1925 fa cup final programme or a 1927 charity shield programme |

Not sure of my highest spend altogether but recently £25 for a copy of the Peace Cup programme in Spain featuring Malaga, Villa, Juventus etc.
The first couple I saw on eBay went for over £60 and then over £50 as they were only available to VIP and press. |

£500 for a job lot including the pompey v man utd 46/47.
£300 for Flootlight match s/s v brentford.
The list goes on & on but thats the problem of collecting all league & cup back to 46/47.
Only 1 league Plus 8 postponed programme (out of 41) to go.

I think the most i have ever spent was 15 pounds on Leyton Orient v Manchester United 62/63, from what i can remember. I could have got it a lot cheaper, though it was in very good condition, so money well spent.
As for the most i would ever spend, it's hard to say without actually seeing the item.. if something really caught my eye then only God knows what the limit would be! |

The most spent so far £560 for a 1928 final, I am sure that will be beaten one day.................. Has anybody got any 1934/35 season Peterborough programmes? |

The most that I have paid is £175. I won't name the programme in case everybody laughs at me
I have made failed bids over £200 for items on ebay so to complete the collection I expect that I need to go higher for rarer items.
One of my wants sold for about £300 recently.
I think that I have resigned myself to never completing it. |

Most I have paid so far is £78 for a 1906 Sheff W v Rovers in the FAC.
Did however put a max bid of £300 in for it. Was very happy to come home and find it didn't go that high as god knows how I would have managed to find that much. _________________ I am not gas, I am a Pirate.

Well seeing as the wife doesn't look at this site....
£555 & £400 for 2 auction lots; £600 & £300 for 2 collections, and as for individual programmes...
£500 for Burnley v. Glossop 1912/13 (Burnley's 1st ever official programme) and the piece de resistance...
£999.99 for the 1912/13 FA Cup Semi Final Burnley v. Sunderland
Would quite willingly break that record for the 1914 FA Cup Final or a complete set of Burnley Reserves Home & Away 1960-1986!! |

Have paid 130 quid for a Leeds european cup final that went on eBay for over 200 so happy with that.
Paid 150 quid for a mint copy of the 1966 world cup final programme but have since sold that for a profit.
In terms of league games I have around 80 quid on 2 separate issues, one of which I was more than happy to pay but the other in hindsight could have been cheaper!!
Have also gained several different issues for around 50 quid too....

Most I've paid is £30 for the London v Frankfurt Fairs Cup tie at Wembley in 1955. Don't know if I overpaid, probably did but it's a lovely copy in very good condition.
Paid £25 for the Sheffield FC v Queens Park centenary game in 1957. Again no idea if that was too much. _________________ http://classicfootballprogrammes.blogspot.com

Have just broke my previous highest amount. Leeds v Middlesbrough 34/35, my first Leeds home pre-war!!
It Cost more than double my previous highest for a Leeds issue, but was more than happy with it. Not sure if this one will be broken anytime soon... At least not double anyway!! _________________ Nuts and Bolts Web Design

I saw this on Ebay and commented at the time it was cheap, you will never lose money buying Leeds pre war at that price. |

I offered £890 for a 1905 Sunderland home, but didn't win. I paid £280 for 1930/31 Sunderland v Arsenal. As this is Arsenal's first Championship i think it was a bargin. I'm trying to cut back now, but i don't worry if the right programmes comes along. If the worst comes to the worst , i'll just have to sell some , and i know i'll get a good price for them. As someone else said before. You put £100 in a pension and next year it's worth £50. Programmes are a good investment i feel. |
