Howdy all;
First off, the people responsible for the NA DVD project have made a
top-notch product. Congratulations (and thanks)! Honestly, the
labels & sleeves compare very favorably with those I can find on local
shelves.
There's been conversation about individuals doing media runs. I can't
imagine doing that with the type of equipment I'd be willing to bring
in-house. My hat's off to you. What I am wondering is whether LibO
NA contacts have any (positive) experience with DVD duplication services.
I don't. But, using my masterful google-fu, I've come across a couple
of local shops which are offering thermal transfers & color cardboard
(2-panel) pockets for around $2.07 per 250-run (~$518 total for an
8-day turnaround).
I can imagine this kind of service might be useful for NA at large.
This way, we could keep tabs on who has a current stash and forward it
on to those in need, in the same way that Drew requested the banner
for SouthEast Linux fest. But, getting back to the specific request:
Does anyone on this list have experience with media dupe services? If
so, I'd like to have a side convo covering preferred suppliers and
expected pricing.

I prefer the lower unit print-on-demand services, when available. It
will cost more per unit, but you can order only the amount you need. I
would buy then from 10 to 30 at a time for my handing out. But if you
can get a nice one, you could set it up to have it take orders from
"customers" who would lake their own copies of the DVDs that are
professional print quality. I cannot do a business out of my apartment,
so I cannot take orders from those who would like a copy, but others may
be able to do this. So for me, if I can get the equipment [buy or
borrow] to print the labels onto the media, and then have the paper
items professionally printed [folded and cut to size], then it would be
easy to just put them together myself and hand them out or sent them to
people I know wants them. I just cannot collect money for doing this in
my place, due to regulation with handicapped apartments.
