scottheisel Posted April 12, 2010 Share Posted April 12, 2010 If there were a band you liked (not like fan-obsessed liked, but y'know, a band you dig decently enough to want to buy a 7-inch of), how much would you pay for a two-song 7-inch? Keep in mind the following: -Record would be limited (to most likely 250 copies or less) -both songs would be brand new and never-before-heard Follow-up: Would you pay more for said 7-inch if it came with a download code? I'm currently working on YCR-002 and trying to crunch the numbers to see if it's even feasible -- the cost per unit can get ungodly high for a run this low, and I want to gauge what consumers' wallets are like before committing to something.

pjaicomo Posted April 12, 2010 Share Posted April 12, 2010 Download code would not increase the value I would pay. I am getting those files one way or another. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 12, 2010 Share Posted April 12, 2010 $4-5. Download code doesn't make a difference, personally. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

daniel Posted April 12, 2010 Share Posted April 12, 2010 I would pay a good $15 for for YCR-002 to be a certain 12"! But it would depend for me. I only buy 7" records if the songs aren't available on an LP, and in that case like $5. And a download code would be nice but not imperative. I'll get the MP3s one way or another.

mattisr1984 Posted April 12, 2010 Share Posted April 12, 2010 $5 max. anything otherwise makes me second guess after factoring in shipping. ps. charging extra for a download is shitty. if you really feel like you have to charge extra for it, make it optional.

mcm1610 Posted April 12, 2010 Share Posted April 12, 2010 4-5 bucks. Download code would be nice but I'd track it down somehow anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kurt Posted April 12, 2010 Share Posted April 12, 2010 $4-7, depending on the band. There are a lot of degrees between "eh whatever" and fan obsessed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rockstar71888 Posted April 12, 2010 Share Posted April 12, 2010 no more than $5. dont go all New Found Glory on us and say you're selling it for $10 to thwart flippers. oh, the irony Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kurtz Posted April 12, 2010 Share Posted April 12, 2010 $6 max (including shipping) A download code or lack of one would not influence my decision at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest lacesout Posted April 13, 2010 Share Posted April 13, 2010 if I like the band, i would easily pay 10. download code doesn't effect my opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
patron Posted April 13, 2010 Share Posted April 13, 2010 No more than $4. I'd rather rip it myself than pay for a code. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whenslunchrecords Posted April 13, 2010 Share Posted April 13, 2010 $3.50 to $5.00 download code doesn't matter. However I think the general "rule" on 7" is no more then $5 if you pressing a small batch just do it on black instead of color vinyl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

themullet89 Posted April 13, 2010 Share Posted April 13, 2010 I would pay up to $5, not including shipping. as long as shipping isn't ridiculously overpriced. and I don't give a shit about download codes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
