She got a good price for the programmes. If someone's daft enough to pay her £450 for them, good luck to them.
166 programmes - 50% of which were either creased, torn, cellotaped, punch holed, bits missing or "poor". **ck me, if she didn't think the others were poor, God only knows what the poor ones are really like.
Vast majority of items are of southern clubs, and none of them remarkable in any way, as Wullie said, run of the mill stuff.
Look at the Gateshead programmes. I've been buying a few recently off ebay, and I've had good condition ones and never paid more than £8 for any of them. The 7 that she has advertised, there's only one without major defects, and that has a slight stain on the front. The Gateshead programmes would be worth £35 maximum in my estimation resale value, probably less.
It's unusual to see so many genuinely old programmes up for sale at one go, but if I'd been offered them at a Fair or the like I'd not have paid anything like £450. I'd have advised her to bin nearly 50% of them, advised her that the late 50's ones are not worth more than pennies, and that the rump of the collection, about 40 in all were worth having, and made an offer on those alone.
