Buying sports photos

Ashfield

Hi all,
Im building a house at the moment and have on planning a sports room with loads of class sports photos on the walls,
Ive been looking up sportsfile and getty and those kind of places and they are all very expensive for just the photos,
So i was just wondering is there any place that sell heses kind of photos for better prices?
Thanks

Depends on whats expensive, you could go to one of the posters shops and I am sure you would find some sporting shots in there?

Ashfield

Ya thanks,
Id rather not get anything the size of posters though, just the usual photo size or maybe a small but bigger,
Well when i say expensive, i dont really want to be paying 30 euro for each photo before i have to get it framed,
I dont know too much about the cost of these photos normally so maybe im just being naive thinking i could get them cheaper as im new to this kind of stuff,
Thanks again

Borderfox

From Sportsfile that would be about right and if you want specific images from specific events then they are the best bet, I always find framing the most expensive! The other alternative is to take some yourself

Many people here also take sports photos and would sell them. Then again, I think most would be roughly similar in price to the agencies.

It really depends on just what you want - what sport, what players, and what your budget is.

Alright lads,
Thanks for the replies,
Ill keep looking just in case,

I could sell you some.
We could agree a price, depending on how many you want.
What sports are you interested in?

Ashfield

it all depends on what you have really,
any sports, nothing in particular just good action shots of big events

I'm into wrestling, and i always thought Film Cells were pretty cool:
