If the pressing house packages the product adequately, it should minimize breakage, even via UPS. Then again, if they put minimal to no padding and just fill a box corner to corner...

I used the same pressing house.

I speak from experience.

If we receive any broken cases, I could give them away free of charge to anyone interested, just pay shipping.

There's only so much you can do to prevent jewel cases from shattering when they're in boxes of like 50, being man handled by mouth breathers at UPS.

All the padding in the world isn't going to stop their internal weight from cracking flimsy jewel cases when Delivery Dave tosses the boxes into the truck like a pro wrestler.

Ha.  No kidding.  I've had friends who worked at UPS tell stories and advise me to ship items in a hard plastic cooler wrapped in duct tape if I want anything to survive their ground service.  2-day air is safer as the other packages are mostly light business parcels.

Thanks ..

In fact it is a little less expensive than France, plus in france the minimum quantity is 500 .
I don't think that professional pressed is a good thing (too expensive, and mainly with too many quantities )

I thought it was public knowledge by now that I pressed 500 copies.  Pressed, not duplicated.

It cost like 1000$

No, I've got enough spares to throw up in the air and shoot with shotguns in the woods.

300 was the minimum, and 500 was only an extra like , 90$.
