Our mailorder list is constantly changing with many releases being available in limited quantities or for only a short time. But if it's listed in our catalog, and you can order it with our shopping cart system, then it is available.

A note on the condition of our distro stock: all records are new and unplayed (unless noted otherwise) and we do our best to keep them in top shape.

For Vinyl:
All records are put into new poly sleeves for added protection. We also take great care in keeping your order safe during shipping and do all we can to prevent damage in the mail system. Vinyl albums and singles are removed from their jackets or printed packaging prior to shipping to prevent splits and wear from shifting during shipment. We also typically put unprotected vinyl in new paper sleeves if none came with the release. Our album mailers are new and sturdy for secure 12" packaging. Large orders are double boxed for safe shipment and well secured with packing peanuts, bubble wrap, or whatever else is needed to make sure contents don't shift. All outgoing mail is clearly marked as "fragile" in an additional step to keep everything safe. We've done all of this for years, but here it is in type so you can know it's part of what to expect when you order. Care will be taken in packaging your order and we'll get it sent out as fast as possible on our side. Tracking numbers are available for all domestic orders, and those shipped with priority airmail international. 1st class (standard) international airmail typically doesn't have tracking information, but otherwise all orders can be tracked on our site and with your confirmation numbers.

Compact Discs and other smaller items:
As written above, the same care is taken in packaging all orders. We use appropriate sized boxes and pad shipments to keep all cases and packaging safe from abrasion and rough handling during shipment. Many new Cds are sealed, but some labels don't shrink wrap discs. So some new Cds are not sealed but are still new and therefore not used, unless noted otherwise.
