The cost of DVD replication depends on a number of factors, with volume and turn-time being the most dominant of them. Turn-time means how fast the job must be produced, and is measured from the time the master is received until the day it is ready to ship. Volume is the number of units a customer needs per master.
If you want to reduce costs, you must first evaluate the turn-time factor. A standard turnaround usually varies between seven and ten days. It is, however, not impossible to accelerate the timetable all the way down to 0 days, meaning same-day production. In fact, no plant will ever guarantee a turn-time. They will not charge for the quick turn if they don’t deliver in time, but that hardly makes any difference if you miss an important trade show or other crucial deadline. So always choose a plant with a proven history if you have a deadline to meet.
