My copy of Joys Of Forgetting from Allegra Krieger arrived loose in an over-sized box as well. Miracuously, there was no damage to the LP cover. I don't usually get LP shipments like this from Amazon...oh well, what should I expect for a $5 investment?
I ordered seasons 1 and 2 of The Outer Limits on Blu-Ray with the 3 for 2 deal. The Rolling Stones Voodoo Lounge Uncut DVD/CD as well as The Steel Wheels Live Blu-Ray/CD are also on there. I also got the new George Thorogood Complete Boston CD.. Too many things in my cart were in this sale. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0798GMWZH/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 - Outer Limits 1 https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07H5VTB7S/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o02_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1 - Outer Limits 2 https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08DBNHB7J/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 - Steel Wheels Live https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07HGGC717/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 - Voodoo - DVD, not Blu-Ray https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08KM8YV29/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o01_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1 - Thorogood I also got Dylan Before The Flood and Live at Budokan.

Target added about 400 titles overnight again. If you are searching within categories, be sure to search in "Miscellaneous" as well - lots of titles there. A personal recommendation: jazz piano trios The Bad Plus, or GoGo Penguin's latest, are both fine albums! These are jazz titles I don't remember seeing before. There are another 20 or so I think are new as well.

I've been very fortunate with amazon packing. My vinyl comes in a vinyl mailer packed in another bigger box. Once they sent me a Creed album by mistake and that was almost unforgivable.
All my vinyl purchases from Amazon have been expertly packed in double boxes - until now. Yesterday, I received an lp from Amazon warehouse that was shipped in a thin plastic baggie. No padding, no box. The record was OK, but the cover took a beating. I hope this was an outlier. To date, my only problem with Amazon has been receiving the wrong record. That said, I am still waiting for a Rammstein album to be substituted for a toaster LOL

Oh, something else! From the Best of 2020 lists: Shirley Collins - Heart's Ease (vinyl): $11.87 https://www.amazon.com/Hearts-Ease-SHIRLEY-COLLINS/dp/B0898WHV3B/
I could see the price going down on this one, especially if GD Inc is planning on a 50th anniversary edition for later this year. It was recorded around the same time as Three For The Vault and the shows included on the expanded editions of WD and AB.
How do we know that this is indeed the 200g edition as nothing of the sort is mentioned in the Amazon listing? Thx.
Yes, best be careful. The 200G UPC code seems to link to this Amazon listing, not the one posted earlier: https://www.amazon.com/Gravest-Hits-Limited-Vinyl-Cramps/dp/B00TKVLGD0
Yeah, looks like the 150g. I based the 200g comment on a couple of reviews on the page, but Amazon reviews don't aways match the product exactly. Sorry about that.
