May 19, 200916 yr same as with 45s - if you can bend the package it's not packed well enough. i still write 'Fragile - please do not bend' on them though. and remember that corrugated card is only stiff in one direction. a lot of sellers use multiple sheets, but all with the lines in the same direction. postage is about 2.00 - 2.50 within the UK depending on weight of LP and stiffeners - for example US sleeves weigh more than UK ones
