Ultimate LP Mailer Comparison Video

[@nocturnaldivision]

You need a record mailer that's rectangular. They move the corners of the box away from the corners of the record sleeve. This means that when the corners of the box get bashed the corner of the record sleeve is usually unharmed. If the corners of the boxes in this video gets hit hard it will damage the record sleeves. Whiplash mailers are a great option if you're in the US.

The problem with these I"m having is there's too much space on the sides, which means the albums can shift side to side in transit, which obviously isn't ideal. I'm having to pack the sides to prevent this, which is a royal pain.

Use his mailer pads that he sells. They’re perfect. Sandwich the record between the 2 pads. Tape the pads together with the record centered between them. They fit perfectly in the box and the oversized pads provide protection all the way around.

Ultimate? Not! Still susceptible to corner dings.

[@robertbrothen1460]

Yep! Not enough protection for all sides of the LP you'd be shipping. The U.S. Mail morons would have no problem damaging your records in these boxes.

throw them just like you are banging them on the table

I know the video is 7 years old, but Sleeve City is more than welcome to replace the jackets for records I received this year, from actual record labels who apparently can't afford a proper mailer after charging ~$30 for a reissue that they pressed for $1, which arrived damaged. Companies who produce this shit type of mailer, where damage to the mailer translates as damage to the record jacket, should be shunned out of business.

[@TaylorGuitarsPlayer]
