Forgive me I am not young but why is it madness, most CDs cost me £10 upwards
Ok it is a single but could be good marketing better to sell 1000 at £5 than 100 @ £10 surely

I'm sure that even at £5, this CD will lose someone a lot of money. Probably Rhino rather than BFC. If you can't afford it Gaz, why not look for an old copy of "Blue Is The Colour?"

Still think we should start a campaign to get everyone who's off to the LDV to buy two copies... that'd be (at least) 15,000, and enough to graze the top 40! Bees on Top of the Pops! I can just hear the Fulham bile rising already...

it is madness, i agree with gaz, when most singles are £4 AT THE MOST, and normally include a video cd-rom or something to make it worth it..... once again, BFC ripping customers off and showing a total disregard for real fans..... i'm very disappointed, and sadly, seriously considering not buying it

Yeah, and it apparently costs them £3 to post it to a UK address. That's £8 for a single. Why can't BFC (just once) cut their fans some slack?

 

[Alex]

£3 postage is a joke. I get most albums from cd wow for 9 quid inc postage

 

[Wee Dave]

It'd better be worth it, that's all I can say. Haven't had the delight of sampling it yet.

 

[De-Generation Bee]

Is it just the one track, or are there others on the disc too?

 

[Peter G]

The cost of £5, for those ordering via the Official WebSite, INCLUDES the cost of postage. However as our secure server does not allow you to continue without such details as postage, please follow the instructions, which necessitates the insertion of postage. But the postage will NOT be applied.
There are two tracks on the CD.

By the way everybody...HAPPY EASTER!

Dan, get real. How much do you think it costs to make a CD? In this case the performers would have done it for free, but there is still the cost of the studio, the engineers etc, plus the actual cost of the blank CDs, cases, printing of the cover/insert. All of these costs are usually spread over thousands of units, so the cost to you can be brought down, although the record company and the retailer make a hefty mark-up. But in this case only a few hundred are going to be sold, so the cost per unit is bound to be higher.

Oh. Ta, Pete. Happy Easter to you, too.

 

[Holysmit]

All cd's are a rip off price thats why i don't buy singles i download them off napster. I probably will buy this one though just to give support to the Bees and get them some media coverage hopefully.

 

[Wee Dave]

If anyone knows anyone who downloads the Bees single without paying for it, let me know... I've got their number.

 

[CamberBee]

I think a fiver is okay, but those who think it's a rip-off don't have to buy it.

Thanks Peter and a fantastic Easter to you and all at BFC

 

[saffrey]

can you buy it on-line as I probably won't get a chance to buy it b4 final day?

People keep saying that this is the club's cahnce to raise money and yet they are being criticised for trying to do so.

This is not an attck on you B2B but lots of people are being silly about this.

 

[Fonzy]

You lot are being really f***ing stingy. How often do We release our OWN song??
The money isn't gonna go to some crappy pop band, it's going to OUR club that we all love. Come on guys, get real & have some fun.
