Gutted for you mate !

Likewise when your postman knocks at the door , don't let your 4yr old daughter get to it first , grab the precious contents and frisbee them across the street !!!!!!!!!!!

Any more pearls of wisdom out there ?

Only a fool would be stupid enough to open a record mailer with a kitchen knife, with the obvious risk or causing damage to the contents.

Actually, I did this myself once I know a fool who did something similar.

I hope it was a lesson to me him ...whoever he is.

i know someone else who did this on an expensive record that was packed with strapping tape (like that brown tape with rope in it that you need a knife to open) and cracked the record in half.

A few years ago I used a kitchen knife to "brutally" open a parcel sent from the UK. Packet was a UK style one, i.e. I expected two cardboard stiffeners inside. Problem was, seller obviously tried to save costs by not including any stiffeners, so I ended up with a nice record, vinyl intact but a deep scratch all over the label, from one side to the other....
