wondering how people pack LPs/12''s when they shipping. usually it's just the 2 bits of cardboard & bubble pack method? is there an easier way?

Yeah when I order Records from ebay its just in between two bits of cardboard with some bubble wrap. No problem so far.
Also it's a good idea to take the record and the inner sleeve out of the jacket and place it on top as if its tightly packed in it'll cause ring wear.
i don't usually bother with bubble wrap. just cut out two pieces of cardboard 12.5'' square and tape them together tight.
what djb said. also, i use one of the boxes i get 12''s sent in (though i'm not sure where you'd source these here if you don't have some) and chuck in another bit of cardboard to make sure. i also write fragile & do not bend in big letters. overkill maybe? haha.
yeah - always write fragile and do not bend - though it's no guarentee
