At least they did take them out. These days most don't even have the shrink wrap opened.

If you *know* how to open shrink wrap, then at least do the decent thing and tell the rest of us how to get in there ..."White paper inner sleeve is pristine ..."Comment

It's not easy. Sometimes it's so tight there's nowhere to slide the knife in. When I were a lad nothing was shrink-wrapped. I'm not sure when it started over here but I don't recall stuff being shrink-wrapped in the 90s.Originally posted by Turboellis View Post"You don't want to kill the cash donkey"Comment

It really is almost more damaging to try and get the shrink off than if there was none at all. I usually put the LP on a flat surface and stretch the shrink in different directions with both hands until it splits (the shrink, not the flat surface) ..."White paper inner sleeve is pristine ..."Comment

Heat & friction. Rub the edge of the sleeve across your thigh, semi vigorously. The seam will open. Practice with crappier records (e.g. jazz) before attempting something serious, like an original sealed psych prog monster.Dave Lee Roth, I Too Am Running With This Devil Of Which You Speak (sic)Comment

Also, practise with crappier trousers - corduroy is not good, neither is velour. A heavyweight denim should suffice.Originally posted by Milesago View Post
Out of interest, of the 21 pages on this thread - has even a single record been matched with a sleeve?
