Damnit! I'm busted. I wish I could could pay a major a couple thousand to let me rehash one of their records.
Is this record going to have a big, blown up UPC on the cover also?
This label is like a Kunaki for vinyl

haha, awesome! I swear this dude is a fucking dildo. I'd place a pretty good bet that he doesn't even like this band, but will pretty much just licence anything that was attached to a major, to give his label the appearance of being a "major player". There is no way he's making more than maybe 1500 or so per pressing after licencing and pressing, and raping people on prices.
I've done several represses myself, and have never had to pay a dime for licencing. If the bands actually liked you, there is a good chance they could negotiate with their label to avoid licencing fees. But that would entail working closely with the band, which obviously your not too fond of.
Selling units man!
I remember when I asked you to get your own bands instead of stealing other bands stuff. your response was "I tried that once, and we lost money"
If at first you don't succeed, pay someone to let you ride on their coat tails.

As a label, you'd be suprised how many people complain about recieving a record outside of the jacket. They think it's used or something. I quit shipping outside of the jacket unless someone specifies, or if I know them.
