Pressing, numbered copies, price and shipping: how to sell your vinyl directly to the people who follow your music.

Pressing, numbered copies, price and shipping: how to sell your vinyl directly to the people who follow your music.

A vinyl is the object people keep. Press a small run, number it, and sell it first to the people who already listen to you.

Size the run

Start small: a few dozen to a few hundred copies. Every copy sold before the pressing arrives reduces your risk.

What you keep

On HYK, 100% of your price. The buyer pays a 10% service fee and the payment fees on top.
