low volume cd duplication

[lollycross]

Hi, Someone just mentioned MyPlanet for cheap cd
duplication. I looked thru their site but they were pushing the 1000 cd's package.
I only need 200 to start. It looks like DiscMakers would
be cheapter, if I had the cover printed on a Copier and
just bought the Jewel cases and put them in myself.
Any opinions on all of this. My cd is at the Mastering House now.
Thanks, Lolly

If you can handle printing the artwork yourself then you can buy spools of 100 CDR's at Meijer or your local computer store (get ones with no prining as they show through ) for $20-$30 a spool. Then just burn them on your computer at as slow a speed as possible I don't go any faster than 4x and on MY stuff it's always 1x

I keep doing the math...it doesn't work out for short-run's either way. I guess I am counting in the cost of my home recording
equip. too. I don't expect to earn much, but I keep coming out
$2000-$4000 short for 3 little c.d.'s selling 150 copies each.
HOW DO YOU GUYS DO IT????? (I know, sell a million copies!)
