Media Mail sucks, unless you're sending a bulk of stuff.
I didn't know it's subject to random inspection either. Maybe I should stop turning priority boxes inside out to send stuff first class/media rate in them.
Haha, does anyone else do that? |

I have no problem whatsoever paying the extra cash for NWN stuff.
People need to keep in mind the extra weight put into packing the stuff. Everything is packed carefully and with the intent that it DOESN'T GET FUCKED UP IN THE MAIL (a rare find). I've never had a single damaged item from NWN due to this.
Totally worth the money.

| While it sucks that you have to order a bunch to make the order worth it, I usually avoid media mail in any case. Chose it one time with a 50 buck AJNA order a couple years ago and never received anything. Still haven't found all the stuff I originally ordered to this day. |

| As a Canadian, I've got no problems with the stuff whatsoever, Yosuke. Actually, I find the shipping prices to be pretty damn cheap compared to a lot of American distros who charge shipping Canada an arm and a leg. So far, I am very happy with the way you're doing. Keep up with the good work. |

At least you know if you get something from Yoskue/NWN it's going to arrive in one piece!

that is true. i think out of all of my orders, the most damage i've had was a torn inner white sleeve. the boxes though, my last one looked like it had been kicked around about four times. had these big dents in them and a couple of the corners were smashed. |

No. It is most likely the Polish postal system that is delaying the parcel. Most parcels gets sent over seas pretty quickly if it's air mail.

| I dont mind the postage, I used to order alot from theendrecords back a few years, and LP shipments was horrible. They dont use USPS, but some cheapmail that ships via new zealand. From new yourk, via new zealand to norway, go figure. Wery cheap, but 60% of my vinyljackets from them have from minor to major bends. |

My hatred for the Brazilian postal "service" grows bigger and bigger every couple weeks.
Nothing to do with NWN postage, but I just thought I'd say...

Yosuke,
I talked with the lady at my post office(she is very helpful) and she says there is a new size flat rat box for international coming soon that might fit vinyl. You should ask at your local post if they have more info. |
