Just for the record, I will email you all this week, I want them to be gone by friday...
I need to make sure I have the good pricing for everything, I have no idea how much weights "Item" for instance and I have no idea how I can send a 12", I need to find out to make sure it comes in 1 piece.
Spot-
When I worked at the mail-order dept for Nettwerk Records, I used to ship 12" vinyl in these cardboard mailers that you had to fold and tape together. The inside dimensions of the box escape me but the records fit perfectly (I would say 12 x 12 x 0.5 would be pretty acurate). I got these mailers from a shipping company in Vancouver, but I would think there are various suppliers in Montreal or even Canada Post might oblige...
Heya Nic,
I've sent you three emails, asking about the shipping fares and how to deal with it. I don't think you've got them. Can you email me? I don't think I've got the right address... Thanks Pete
No I did, I didn't answer anybody yet.
This is what I'll do, I'll simply estimate the damned weight of the package, I'll send it to some people, and we'll go ahead with it. Hopefully I'll be right most of the time.
For CD and DVD it's easy, but for the slipcases and the 12", I need to find something solid to send those, but I believe I'll start to send one item at the time instead of waiting for them all.
So be prepared for news by this week-end.

A thin piece of hardboard like the stuff they make clipboards out of,taped to the back, slightly larger than the record itself, is the safest way to send 12" records. I bought a $600 record last year and thats how it came, no problems at all. Also bought Palatine and a couple of other lp's which were sent in the normal cardboard cases and while the records themselves were fine, the sleeves got damaged.
erm, just wondering if you've sent these out yet?
reasons are:
a) just wondering, and
b) i've had packages sent back to amazon for no apparent reason. just making sure everything's a-ok.
I am sending one of each THIS WEEK, promised, this will serve me to have the right pricing for each element.
So I'll send them to some people I know will pay me back ;)
To be honest, I hate doing this, hence why it's so long... sorry about that...
