On Skam print runs: 
They could probably sell about 10,000 a piece. 
However, if they were to start printing big runs, the appeal might be lost 
(remember, you can't want something until you can't have it or it appears you 
can't have it) and Skam would actually be bought based on the music on the 
records. 
No diss to Skam, I wouldn't want to be sitting on tons of records either, but 
I don't see what the problem with periodic repressings of 500 to 1,000 would 
be, seeing as how they'd have no problem selling them. 
It's much like Warp - they could easily repress WAP88 or many others but that 
I guess defeats the "purpose" of the release.
It's fun to be a trainspotter though.
