The Selektor

The Selektor holds no stock, prints nothing and never touches the order: every 3D product sold on its Shopify store reaches the print shop as a per-part job.

The challenge

The Selektor sells 3D-printed accessories for record collectors: the Now Playing Mini stand and the Batea crate. Until 2025, they were produced in batches by an outside print shop. That meant tying up inventory in every color, checking each batch by hand, and shipping from the brand’s own warehouse. As demand slowed, those products moved to “made to order, 15-day lead time.”

The solution

With Craftshop, every 3D product sold on The Selektor’s Shopify store reaches the print shop as a per-part job. Before the first sale, each model goes through a golden sample with photos and an agreed price. After that, every part is photo-checked and ships straight to the buyer, with tracking synced back to the store automatically. The Selektor holds no stock, prints nothing, and never touches the order.

Once your brand is in

  • Every sale is printed piece by piece

    An order from your store reaches the workshop as one job per piece, and the tracking goes back to your store so the buyer sees it where they bought.

  • Nothing ships without a photo check

    You approve a golden sample per model and workshop. Before dispatch, every piece passes a photo check against that sample.

  • You start with Shopify

    Connect your Shopify store and upload each model once. Tiendanube and Mercado Libre join next, each with its own integration.
