    2000 photobooks, at $500 each. They're looking to make a million dollars off these things. Does anyone else thing thats kinda insane? Even custom printing each one, it probably only costs them $15 or so per copy. I hope the girls are getting a heck of a yearly bonus outta the deal. :p

    Yeah, the price really is absurd. Looking at the sample pages, I'd have a hard time convincing myself to spend even 1/5th of the price on it. I mean, the theater portraits are nice and all, but it's pretty cheap to just reuse old pictures.

    It'll be interesting to see if this sells out.

    Quoting the info I posted at the AKB thread:

    It IS expensive. But somehow, I'd buy it if the the thing of your fav giving you the book is true.

    *jaw drops* that's over US$500 for it, i wouldn't buy it even if it is limited edition... it can buy over 2 months worth of lunch... or can buy a lot of other useful things, even interstate holiday :3

    Just think about you can have a photo with your favorite member, she gives you the photobook herself.....priceless

    okay, it IS expensive, but with this new information it's maybe worth it. If I could spare the money, I'd probably buy it.

    If I'm in Japan then I will definitely get one....a photo with Takamina....the 50000 yen is probably cheaper than trying to get the photo prize from Gachaball

    Sounds like a sweet deal...but a ticket for the 10th Anniversary?! They're being really ambitious, aren't they? I mean...does anyone know what's going to happen tomorrow, let alone 2015?

    I guess I'll have to sit back and watch their progress for the next eight years. B-)

    ^ probably not and each PB should be somewhat unique.
    The PB is available for fan club member only, wonder how many members are there.....

    I'm part of the FC and definitely don't live in Japan. I can't get the PB, though. They won't send it overseas.
