mine showed up in a 12.5x15x3 box with no packing material in it. no bubble stuff, no shrinkwrapped-to-a-cardboard-base thing, nothing except the record and receipt. i've ordered many lps from amazon with varying packing quality, but never with absolutely nothing in it. the corner is damaged slightly, which i don't really mind, but i am just surprised that with the effort they've recently put into making packing better that something like this can happen.
The design of those boxes are flawed. When I get more than one LP from Amazon.com (not CA), it comes in those same boxes individually, then in a bigger box, which would be ok, but those individual boxes will always damage the corners.
My 10c order was wrapped in bubble wrap and has a dinged corner. My amazon (us) order had those bubble 'bars' on top and has no dinged corners. Guess it really does prevent the contents from shifting.
My vinyls came in yesterday. I ordered on 11/25. Hopefully everyone has learned their lesson that Amazon is the route to go as the Ten Club gets only limited copies of anything.

Both offer great service. If you missed out here, look to the A (Amazon), not the E (eBay).
I learned that you can still place orders with Amazon.ca even if it's listed as "Temp Out Of Stock" cause in the end, they come true.
my card has been authed but still says "shipping soon" on amazon.com. however amazon cs says i will get it on the 19th. I'm still unclear on whether or not anything has been shipped to me.
"All I Ever Knew" available now in print and digital formats at Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and iBooks.
Got my amazon.com pj20 vinyl order today. Pretty good condition ... Slight denting on one corner. Since I ordered some books from amazon too (xmas gifts), it came in a bigger box with the bubble bags.
Oh, and I ordered on nov. 25. Time to spin the black cirlce! :-)
My PJ20 vinyl pre-order from a local record store was cancelled, after their supplier ran dry. If anyone has an extra I'd love to pay you whatever it cost, and throw in something extra, like a show poster.

no, .com. and no, none of the inflated bags, either. just the record and receipt in a box. 10c did better packing it.
