i don't have any advice except for the usual suspects other than to note that sometimes it's easier to sell 500 12"s because more distributors are willing to work with you if you've got a larger quantity... unless you're planning on offloading them yourself, in which case 100 would surely be the way to go. gregory ===== )the fawn )"i thought when i started playing )shows i'd meet a lot of really cool )people, but most of the people i've )met just want me to copy software )for them" __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?

Deciding on what to press before you have any idea of what you might sell is "putting the cart before the horse" (as my grey haired grandmother would say). Approach a suitable distributor FIRST, so they can give you a realistic "stab" at what the sales potential might be. ALWAYS work on the basis that you can repress if the initial run sells out. Even though you might get a slightly better unit price by pressing more, any saving will be lost if you have a few hundred unsold pieces sitting in your garage. NEVER believe anyone's sales figures. Labels/Artists/Distributors (almost) always lie ! (we don't, of course ;) ). I have lost count of the amount of times i have been told a single has sold 2,000/3,000, only to find on investigation that it REALLY shifted < 1000.
