moonbeams Posted December 6, 2011 Share Posted December 6, 2011 There's a great thread on how to package a record. This is to teach people how not to package records. Exhibit A. Close your packages. Got this on a rainy day (today). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moonbeams Posted December 6, 2011 Author Share Posted December 6, 2011 Ex. B. Use a mailer. They were made for records. Just because it's cardboard doesn't mean it will hold. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moonbeams Posted December 6, 2011 Author Share Posted December 6, 2011 The third one was not the sender's fault. That's USPS. It took a month to arrive, so something was up. I didn't take pics, but in the past month I received an lp shipped in a plastic bag wrapped in a paper bag sandwiched between an LP sleeve cut in two. I also received one in a pizza box. At least it was a large box. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kurt Posted December 6, 2011 Share Posted December 6, 2011 I also received one in a pizza box. At least it was a large box. Did the record smell like pizza? If so what kind of pizza? Would you trade the record for a pizza? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moonbeams Posted December 6, 2011 Author Share Posted December 6, 2011 I think it was pepperoni. I don't remember the record, but ironically I think it's worth less than a pizza. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
