DNB Vinyl Vendor Agreement FAQ

Where is the vinyl stored?

All vendor vinyl is stored securely by DNB Vinyl inside DNB Vinyl premises. There are no storage charges.

Does DNB Vinyl pay upfront for stock?

No. DNB Vinyl does not pay any upfront fees for vinyl stock. Vendors are paid after sales are made, based on the agreed percentage.

How can vinyl be supplied to DNB Vinyl?

Vinyl can either be shipped to us or dropped off in person. Please contact us via WhatsApp to arrange an in-person drop-off.

How are vendor payments calculated?

The record label or artist tells us the percentage they would like to receive from each sale. For example, if a record sells for £16 and the agreed vendor percentage is 50%, the label receives £8 per vinyl sold.

Who covers shipping and payment fees?

DNB Vinyl is responsible for customer shipping costs, PayPal fees, card payment fees, and website transaction costs.

Who is responsible if an order is lost or damaged?

DNB Vinyl is liable for any vinyl that is lost or damaged when sold through our website and shipped to our customers.

Will the label still be paid if a customer parcel goes missing?

Yes. If a parcel goes missing after sale, the record label or artist will still receive their agreed percentage.

Can a label or artist request their stock back?

Yes. A label or artist can request the return of their releases at any time. Any outstanding customer orders will be fulfilled before remaining stock is returned.

Can DNB Vinyl list pre-sale items?

Yes. We are willing to list pre-sale items. However, pre-sale items will not be paid out to the label or artist until the stock has been received by DNB Vinyl.

What happens if a pre-sale release is cancelled or no longer produced?

If a pre-sale release is cancelled or no longer produced, customers who placed orders will be refunded from the retained funds.

Can the agreed vendor percentage be changed later?

Yes. If a label wants to change the percentage for a release, for example from 50% to 30%, this can be agreed. The new percentage will apply only to future sales after the change has been received and confirmed.

When are payments made?

Vendor payments are made based on the agreed percentage for completed sales. Pre-sale items are only eligible for payout once the stock has been received by DNB Vinyl.

Who is responsible for tax?

The record label or artist is responsible for declaring and filing any tax due on payments received from DNB Vinyl. DNB Vinyl does not deduct or file tax on behalf of vendors.
