    That is just sad George.

    I bought a new Buddy Guy from Amazon and they sent it in a box 12.5x12.5x9.5 with just those bags of air. No cardboard re-enforcement or nothing.

    THe album came warped and cover was pretty pushed in.

    They should use album shippers. Anyway they sent a replacement next day by fedex, even though same size box and packaging it arrived in great shape.

    Sorry for your album and having a good sense of humor is good.

    Wow. I hate it when that happens!

    Reminds me of a nice Thorens turntable (with dustcover) I bought from a guy who shipped it in a box packed only with a single piece or foam rubber that looked like it was ripped out of his couch and a 3X fleece pullover

    The dustcover arrived in 8 pieces and the Infinity Black Widow Tonearm graphite armwand was snapped in half.

    Very underrated album by Neil Young that is long out of print.

    Sad, some people just either don't know or don't care.

    Looks like the innermost track is still intact! Rock out!

    Edit: On second viewing maybe not. Maybe the end of the track? Lol

    Tough luck George! I hope this was an eBay purchase through PayPal. You will get your money back.

    Amazon has a horrible history of under packing stuff. I am amazed that I've never had a damaged item. But, they are awesome at fixing the mistake. You'd think it would be easier just to pack things properly to being with.
