[net.music] Damaged Inner Sleeves

 Why is it, that with an alarmingly high percentage of records I buy, I find
that the inner sleeve has been ripped or cut by the records ?

The records seem to be held tightly in place by the sleeve and the factory
seal, which also makes it impossible to check the inner sleeve, before
purchasing. 

 I'm sure that I'm not the only person to have this particular complaint,
and I guess that it would be difficult for the customer to do much about it,
other than to complain the shops and record companies, but does anybody know
why this happens ?

Because the record manufacturers employ teenage punks to insert their 
vinyl garbage into the sleeves, paying them with nothing more than
nickle bags of cocaine and a free supply of hair paint.  

Which is why I haven't bought one record since getting my CD player!
