I've used Discmakers and SF Video for replication. Now I'm going to need duplication in batches of 30 to 100. Any other companies to compare? Thanks.

I've been using Kunaki.com for a while. Inexpensive, good quality, though customer service is... well, nonexistent.

Hmm.. no C.S. scares me a little. I could have a client breathing down my neck.

Most services won't replicate for small batches like that. Keep in mind that replication requires creating a glass master disc, and 'pressing' the copies. I find they won't do it for less than five hundred copies. Duplication of thirty or so - you might look into getting your own duplicator.

As I said in my OP, I'm looking for short run duplication now.

Discmakers short run quantities are 1 to 2000
Why not use them?

I have had great success with all my projects that I have sent them - and their pricing is not bad either...

I believe that guitarcenter.com also has a duplication house that will run short quantities. Haven't used them though.
