I've sold a ton of my vinyl and I buy the record mailer boxes for them on Amazon (or save boxes from when I get new records in the mail). Yes it sucks to have to buy shipping material but that's just a cost you build into the price you're selling the records for.
I personally wouldn't ship them in a regular box. If the vinyl is moving around a box during shipping, you're risking the vinyl or sleeve becoming damaged and then you might end up with an unhappy buyer who might demand a refund.
I once had someone ship a 7" picture disc to me in a giant empty box, with absolutely no stuffing inside of any kind, and that record went flying around every direction to the point it completely cut through all four sides of the PVC sleeve during shipping, and arrived warped. One the the most expensive records I ever bought (I'm talking hundreds of dollars here, it was a Taylor Swift RSD release) was shipped literally between two pieces of cardboard cut from a box, and then taped together around it. To be fair, the record arrived fine, but I still can't believe that person shipped it like that.
I always mention in my listings that I ship in a record mailer just to give buyers peace of mind before they buy. I actually get paranoid buying secondhand sometimes because you have no idea how the person will ship it. I'd say probably about 85% of the time I buy records secondhand, they use the record mailers, either new ones or reused ones.
If you don't want to commit to buying boxes, maybe you could ask any friends who buy records to save their boxes for you? I guess it depends how many you're planning to sell.

Usually you find out night of, but the consensus seems to be it’s gonna be at least a few days before all the states finish counting due to all the early ballots.
edit: also, if kamala gets announced they’ll put up a huge fight too. so i don’t see myself relaxing regardless

Make sure you’re registered to vote! You can try vote.org to check your status but your state’s secretary of state website is probably more accurate. For my state you can also begin the process of requesting an absentee ballot- you don’t need to “prove” you’ll be absent or anything- they’ll give you one regardless if you fill your information out and you’re registered.

Thinking of selling some of my vinyls, mainly my alternate Lana pressings because a) its kind of crazy to have multiple of 1 album and b) i don’t have a quality player so I haven’t been playing them since finding out cheap record players will damage the vinyl.
Does anyone know the safest way to ship a vinyl if I were to resell them online? When I order them they always come in like a box designed for vinyls but I never saved those. Will a regular carboard box be fine? Should I fill the gaps with bubblewrap
or something?

Maybe she’s taking courtney love’s “she needs to take 7 years off” advice! I’d prefer new music obviously but she’s been releasing music kind of rapidly (2019-2024: 4 albums plus a decent amount of features/one off songs) so if a break helps make better music I’m all for it.

Great interview and pictures. I have renewed hope for this new album. She put the brakes on because she wasn’t feeling it and will change directions and make another masterpiece. And I love what she said about getting married.
