You may check with Pirate Press, I believe they use a EURO plant to press their stuff. A press run of a $100 is probably going to cost you at least $10 per record, even more per record for a smaller run.....The price drop significantly if you make a larger pressing!pigammon wrote:About 100, maybe 80.Stl_ben wrote:How minimum are you looking? Most pressing plants can't press fewer than 50 because how fast the machines work...most customers don't order that few becuase the price per copy at that small of pressing is crazy high.

Here's a list of plants throughout the world (2nd post), not sure how up to date it is considering the ever changing landscape of record pressing.
