[QUOTE="geronimo, post: 42833, member: 392"] I agree that we should pay for these items where we need, however the price can be a little on the high side. I contacted the IWM on obtaining a photocopied diary of 160 pages. the price quoted to to me was 10p per page. that's ?160. I think that's ludicrous. not all of us can get to london to read the documents to know what's pertinent and what's not. I know how much it would cost to reproduce that document, using a photocopier with an auto feed ( I used to sell industrial copiers) . each page would cost them including paper less than a penny. I can understand charging what it costs them and making a profit of something like 3p a copy but 10p. I have no qualms about paying just not what it would cost for me to get to london and stay for the weekend [/QUOTE]
