Best way to ship LPs?

I am shipping single LPs most of the time ....

Media Mail is a safe and inexpensive way to Ship to US locations . Normal Media Mail of 1 LP to any US destination is about $2.58 . Priority Mail can run as high as $8.00 depending on the 2 locations . I normally offer both as options and let the buyer pay the costs . Another good idea is to use Delivery Confirmation which adds another $.75 to the Cost . This will let you Track the Delivery on the USPS Website .

I always use Cardboard LP Mailers that can hold 1 - 4 LPS and availible on eBay and other places . Do a Search . You can buy 12 1/2 Cardboard packing Filler Pads here http://www.bagsunlimited.com/cart/browse.asp?subcat=18 . I use 2 per . The total cost per package is $.75 to $1.25 depending on the quantity you purchase .

Overseas purchases are a whole different ballgame .

Many thanks to all for the great responses!

Outdoor temp is important.
Getting an LP sent from Arizona in August, it was a melted mess. I guess it sat in a hot sealed 178F truck for a few days?? Also midwinter at zero, a small wack can shatter an LP. Ship in the moderate temp Spring, Fall, or sent it 2 day delivery or better.
