Pricing

After receiving a lecture on the introduction to zines at the beginning of this project, we were informed that the average price for a zine out their in the market is £4-£5.
From looking around at prices of magazines in the current market, it seems that most gossip glossy's such as Cosmpolitan, Glamour  and Company magazine are all retailing at around £2-£3.

However, because our whole zine is made up of hand drawn illustrations on each page, we feel that our zine owns a much more personalized and collectable feeling about it, and so therefore felt it would be acceptable for us to price our final zine at £4. We hope this is a hit with any possible fans we manage to attract at the London Zine Symposium and our hard work gets rewarded with our work finally getting out into the wide world.
