The resurgence of flat black plastic has brought a LOT of shonky traders with it. I've had about four badly buckled LPs delivered...all packaged REALLY well and no evidence of postal damage...they were warped from the factory of distribution points...a further couple have had BAD pops n crackles. For the most part I've had good pressings and QC over the last five years. Once it settles into some sort of regular, non trend, production system things should improve. At present it's a very few machines producing around the clock to capitalize on the trend/fad.
Packing LPs and CDs took me ages for my move earlier this year. The LPs are unpacked, in their safe places and being played. The CDs are half done...the storage is problematic in this new place - 1000 or so to go once I reassemble the shelving.
