Sales on 500 come back at £2 a pop so you are looking at a £1000 in return.
Distrib normally charge carriage fees for moving the vinyl, or you have to pay to get it to their warehouse yourself, so add another £40 in courier fees.
1000-820= 180, so if you sell out then yes there is enough to throw £100 to the artists. IF you self press.
