     This  statement,  dated May 5,  1999,  constitutes  Amendment  No. 7 to the
Schedule 13D, dated October 6, 1997,  regarding the reporting  persons ownership
of certain securities of Price Communications Corporation (the "Issuer").

     This  Schedule  13D  is  hereinafter  referred  to as the  "Schedule."  All
capitalized  terms used herein and otherwise  undefined  shall have the meanings
ascribed in the Schedule.

     This Amendment No. 7 to the Schedule is filed in accordance with Rule 13d-2
of the Securities  Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), by the
reporting  persons.  It shall  refer only to  information  which has  materially
changed since the filing of the Schedule.

     The  information  contained  herein that refers to matters  occurring on or
after May 4, 1999, reflects a five-for-four stock split effected on such date.

ITEM 3. Source and Amount of Funds or Other Consideration.

     The source of funds for the  acquisition of the  additional  securities was
the general working capital of Sandler Associates.

     The amount of funds  used in  acquiring  the shares of Common  Stock is set
forth below:

                                        Number of Shares          Purchase Price
                                        ----------------          --------------
     Sandler Associates                      30,000                  $333,750


ITEM 4. Purpose of Transaction.

     The  reporting  persons  acquired  their  securities  for the  purposes  of
investment.

     Other than the reporting persons purchase or sale of additional  securities
of the Issuer,  no reporting  person has any present  plans or  proposals  which
would relate to or result in any of the matters set forth in  subparagraphs  (a)
through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D except as set forth herein.
