Limited editions and certificates

A limited edition is a numbered run of one product. Each print is numbered, the edition stops selling when it is full, and each piece comes with STIL LAB’s certificate of authenticity.

Steps

1. Open Products, then the Limited editions tab, and press New limited edition. Choose a product. You can also press Make it a limited edition on the Prices & publish step of the product builder.
2. Choose what the edition covers: The whole photograph, with one edition size shared by every size, or Each size, with its own edition size. Leave a size blank to keep it an open print, with no numbered limit.
3. Set the Edition size, up to 999 prints.
4. Set your Artist’s proofs: your own copies, up to 99. They are never sold online, and are not part of the edition size.
5. Press Save edition.

Good to know

• The certificate adds $19.95 to your STIL LAB cost for each edition piece. If your prices are too low once it is added, the edition form says so and offers Use my markup.
• Editions sell on your own website only.
• An edition belongs to the photograph, so every product of that photograph shares it.
• Once numbers have sold, the edition can no longer be changed. You can still close it: nothing more sells, and a number held for an order still goes through.
• An edition’s page, under the Limited editions tab, lists every number. A number can be retired, so it is never sold, and a retired number can be made available again (unless it was already sent to STIL LAB on an order); it is then the next one sold.
• When every edition of a photograph is sold out or closed, and no open size is still selling, it shows Sold out.
• Add your signature in Settings to have it printed on the certificates. See Logo, portrait and signature.
