The reason most places set a minimum number of pressed plates is because a
mould must be made for whatever record you're having pressed and this is the
most expensive part of the process...usually coming in at about 125-200
dollars depending on the plant and the size of the record...after that, it's
like $1 a plate...most places don't offer the option of pressing 10 records
because it would cost the customer upward of $15 for each record, and noone
wants to really pay that...I'm sure you could find a place that would if you
looked hard enough...just don't expect em to be cheap when you do
