Gotta Groove Records offers fully integrated D2C fulfillment services, as well as international distribution services for the vinyl records pressed by GGR. We can provide fulfillment services for a variety of platforms through flat file transfer and EDI, API, CSV, as well as automated fulfillment through Shopify and Bandcamp.

Tired of packing and mailing your own records?  Save time and money by having the Gotta Groovies fulfill your pre-orders!

• – Save on freight costs (no longer a need to ship records to you, only for you to re-ship them out to your customers)
• – Easier on the environment (less shipping of boxes/pallets around the country/world).
• – Prevent damage (avoid the risk of loss/damage by only shipping records out once).
• – Save time (let us do the painstaking pick-pack-ship work for you).
• – Save money (hey, your time is worth a lot, isn’t it?).

FULFILLMENT PRICING:

There is a per-sku setup fee of $150. Then, please add the per-unit fees listed below:

Domestic shipments:

• – $3.75 per unit + USPS media mail rate (1-4 units in single shipment)
• – $10 per box per location + USPS media mail rate or UPS ground rate (5+ units in a single shipment)

International shipments:

• – $5.95 per unit + USPS shipping cost (1-4 units in single shipment)
• – $35 per box per location + USPS shipping cost (5+ units in a single shipment)

Note: actual manufactured cost or retail sell price (whichever is higher) will be used for customs value on international shipments. We cannot falsify the customs value with a lower price. Sorry.

Other items to be included in the shipping carton (stickers / patches / postcards, etc) are billed at $0.15 per piece per carton shipped.

Odd-shaped packaging and/or box sets will incur additional box fees.  All costs will be finalized during sku setup.

All shipments will be inside GGR’s mailers/packaging, within GGR’s discretion.  All shipment data must be provided to GGR in GGR’s required format (Bandcamp or Shopify CSV, unless other arrangements have been made).

GGR does not offer ongoing warehousing/storage. Any stock left on GGR premises for over 30 calendar days will be assessed a $25/box fee per month. Any stock left on GGR premises for over 90 days will be discarded without notice.

We do not offer ongoing storage of fulfillment product – our fulfillment services are single-wave shipping only.  In other words, we ship all of your designated consumer orders, and then ship the balance of product (if any remains) to your designated address(es).  Product left at GGR after 30 days will be discarded.  Fulfillment services are only offered for projects manufactured at GGR.

Fulfillment must be arranged at the point of test pressing approval. Please contact us at either (800)295-0171 or [email protected] to set up fulfillment for your release(s).

GGR IS NOT LIABLE FOR ANY DAMAGE TO CONSIGNED GOODS SHIPPED FROM OR STORED AT GGR PREMISES. CUSTOMER IS RESPONSIBLE FOR INSURANCE OF SAID GOODS SHIPPED FROM OR STORED AT GGR PREMISES. PLEASE ALLOW 14 BUSINESS DAYS FOR PROCESSING OF EACH FULFILLMENT WAVE.

Distribution Services:

We offer international distribution for select vinyl releases – you do need to set this up soon after placing your manufacturing order, and there are setup costs involved.  But, for suitable releases, it is an easy option to get product into the bins at record stores and shelves at wholesales on an international basis.  Goods are sold on a consignment basis, and net proceeds begin payout 6 months after release date.  Our distribution data systems trade NARM, EDIx12, EDIFACT and other flat file data exchanges, so releases are readily and efficiently available to wholesalers and retailers around the world.  Please note, we only offer these services for vinyl titles manufactured at Gotta Groove Records.  If you are interested in more information, please contact us at [email protected].
