Open My Records To Avoid Seam Splitting During Shipping

In order to ship your records to you in the safest way possible, and to avoid seam splits, we recommend removing the record from the jacket when shipping. That said, we will never open sealed records and do this without your permission. If you would like your records shipped to you this way, please add this product to your cart.

We will place your jacket and record inside a FREE protective poly.
