I'm looking into vinylcuts.be right now. Prices seem ok and the minimum mastering so you're sure everything sounds balanced is good for a n00b like me.

It's also interesting to do a tryout with a simple dubplate there. Starts at 13 euro.

I read they have sometimes 20 percent of miscuts. If there's a problem with the order, might be difficult to get a refund or whatever with Czech republic :) Good prices tho yah.

u don't wanna google for cheap vinyl cuts :D just get in touch with major labels and distro's they got the info u need for good and good priced pressings u need the better companies best is to get some help from people with experience the prices mentioned are much more than info I have for myself, but I can't realy share that info since it's based on personal aquaintances and years of communicating with an international scene... if u just 'order' something at a 'company' u can't get the same deals as when someone actually 'helps u' getting 'things done' :) so I advice u to get deep into the underground that surrounds u ;-)

I hate that kind of business. It's why I absolutely loathe belgian music stores. The price depends greatly on how well you know the salesman and I always feel "opgelicht" when I leave the store. It just sucks.

I talked with some people of several labels for this question since I'm thinking of releasing vinyl too, and apparrently you need to stay well clear of Poland, Czech republic, etc. - If you get a misprint, 20 percent or 100 percent, well....enjoy the misprint. No more communication, no refunds, etc.

From what I hear Puzzling records, Bioxyd I think, in...Liege? Also has a cutting facility that should be high quality. The plus side, it's close by so issues can be resolved, you could even discuss things like that I'm assuming.

TBH vinyl pressing isn't like throwing a compilation CD-r 'out there', you need to take a lot more into account such as the difficult mastering for vinyl, so if you can find something local and maybe you can pass by to discuss things first, you'll get 101 details you hadn't thought of. I'd also say, do a one-off pressing of a dubplate with your finished tracks, and test the results (living room, studio, party, test it as much as you can). A vinyl you think is fine when being played in a studio might turn out to be too heavy or 'floppy' for dj's etc.
