All the Best Buy stuff came today. They have some good and possibly proprietary cardboard packaging.
I got really, really pissed off when I bought something from Best Buy a few months back and the box came all dented and messed up. Then I opened that box up to find another box with my records safely packaged inside. It was a great packaging setup that protected the records with a kind-of buffer zone. Was really impressed by that. No real chance of them being bent since it was protected inside a second box.
Yeah. I thought that it was a remarkably safe and fairly efficient way to ship a bunch of records at once. Really pleased.
Is it weird I really want to see a picture of this epic packaging? You guys have me convinced it's wrapped in unicorn pubes or something equally rare.
Unfortunately I threw mine all away this morning before my garbage was picked up. But about every 4 LPs were completely wrapped tightly in a very thick hard cardboard jacket.

I might have photos at home but not sure if I took any after I opened it completely. When I saw the dented and ripped outer box I started to take photos before opening it so if I had damaged records I could show them it was from shipping.
Yea, that's exactly why I wanted to make this one. Like being at a record store and flipping through the albums. Just need to add some trim to it and it'll be complete.
Awesome job. I really need a couple of these myself. I have all my records stored in those big Tupperware style bins and it kind of sucks.
Is there plenty of room on the bottom to thumb through the records? Do you think adding drawers under the top level would squeeze the bottom shelf too much?
I am hoping 2 of these will fit my collection. I like that these are "expandable" so to speak. And now that the expedit is discontinued and the replacements aren't as strong, this seems to be the way to go.
I bought one non-sale item - MOFI of the Blue Album - and it came today. In the shipping note, it included everything else I ordered, all but one of which I knew was backordered. When I placed the order, the 7" of DOM's "Living in America" was available; by the time they shipped it it was "SOLD OUT" as the shipping people wrote on my manifest

That mofi blue album sounds awesome. Good get!
Now you just need the mofi Pinkerton and you'll have all the weezer you'll ever need.
Michael Jackson's "Off The Wall" came in yesterday... scared me shitless, because the box looked like a parenthesis, but the record came in great shape.
So it turns out that when my uncle found out I took my parent's record collection, he was quite pleased. As a result, he said he has an old turn table that I can have. No idea what kind it is yet, but I anticipate it will be a fairly decent one. This uncle has always been about music, had a small recording/mixing station in his house for a bit. Score!
For those wanting to pick up Simian Mobile Disco's new album on vinyl, if you pre-order it with this bundle, you get a signed piece of blotter art. Having to hold off picking it up!

What exactly is a picture disc? Google is confusing me.
What ITT said. They are pretty to look at but IMO never sound good. I tend not to buy them anymore.
It had better be a cover/image that I absolutely love enough to just want to display to justify my purchase. They do not sound good, that's for damn sure.
Picked these up this morning at Second and Charles (Queen's "A Night At The Opera" would be here too, but some girl swooped in front of me and bought it seriously thinking it was a live album... yeah):
First trip to Revolver Records in p'cola happened before Emerald Coast Beer Festival last friday. Good thing the wife was with me or I surely would've put a bigger hurtin' on the credit card.
