Shellac 78 records are less flexible than vinyl records, and we pack them with great care, in multiple layers of cardboard and cushioning, to prevent their being damaged in transit. All listings for 78-rpm shellac records offer either Fed-Ex Express Saver (expensive but potentially quicker and safer), or USPS Media Mail (inexpensive, but longer in transit).
