That would be awesome if true

It exists and I like the image but I don't know anything about it. It's not even in the database so I'm curious if anyone knows anything about it.

So were they charging $15 shipping for a 7" and then more if you ordered multiples? Is it usually $15 to ship a single album?

Shipping a record with media mail is usually under $5. $15 is ridiculous.

Don't quote me on it but I think it was only $15 if you bought more than 2 records (aka those that got all 3 got double hammered on shipping), which has now been reduced to $7, probably because they will all fit into 1 mailer with ease?

$7 is still too much for media mail (typically around $3) but I can't necessarily blame them for passing the cost of mailers, labels, handling, etc... onto their customers as well. Some companies do, some don't...

after my refund I was charged $21 to ship 6 x 7". I mail records out everyday and this shipment should be around $8(still taxed). Even if you add in employee packing time, packing supplies, whatever, it still shouldn't be $21 to ship 6 7". Usually don't feel ripped off by Mondo's shipping but do on this one

Probably thought you were going to flip at least 3 of them so why not.

I don't know if he became too cool, but he became a successful poster artist--and a poster artist around here can receive the same treatment as a man who jumps into the weasel enclosure at the zoo wearing a tuxedo made of fresh rabbit meat.

I'm really curious to see what kind of mailers only fit 2x7" records. It makes sense with the 12" mailers (those Ghiblis were tight), but seriously?! It'd probably cost me $21 to ship 6x7" to France (not actually researched).

There are 7" mailers, FYI.
