Return Policy
DAMAGED VINYL JACKETS: We ship all our records in sturdy cardboard mailers, with additional eco-friendly void fill to do our best to make sure your record arrives to you in the best aesthetic state possible. That said, rough transit by the postal system can cause the vinyl to shift within the jacket itself, ultimately leading to spine splits and dinged corners. If the aesthetics of the record jacket itself are important to you, while we understand, please note WE WILL NOT REPLACE DAMAGED RECORD JACKETS. If the aesthetics of your record jacket are that important to you, we strongly urge you to buy local! Apologies if this seems harsh, but we simply can't guarantee your vinyl will arrive in flawless condition via mail-order, and buying locally will both guarantee the aesthetics of your record jacket and also just seems like the common sense solution anyway.

If for some other reason your order arrives defective, 'cause we know there would be no other reason to return such lovely music, please return the defective item within 10 business days to the following address and make sure to include a note stating the reason for the return and an address which we can ship a brand new shiny right-off-the-line replacement to.
