If you don't care about bent corners creases or dings on your jacket then it won't bother you, but as someone who likes their records to be immaculate - it's a no from me.
Best Buys vinyl shipping is hit or miss. I've had a few issues with how they ship single lps. They just throw it in a media mailer and call it a day. This will lead to bends, creases, rips/tears, and of course dings within the jacket. If you like to display your jackets or keep them pristine, you can't count on this shipping method. The record needs to be shipped in a way where the album is secured and protected on all sides. I know Best Buy is trying its hand at the vinyl game but so far im 0/2 for vinyl purchases with Best Buy.
The record itself, incredible. It's a great pressing, sounds wide and huge, lots of clear bass, awesome mix. It's a solid record of great music which you already know if you're buying it. It's just that as a vinyl is a delicate piece of media, Best Buy should know and acknowledge this. I returned mine, but many may not care about superficial "jacket damage" like I do.

A classic double album. The culmination of Outkast's career. Speakerboxxx is Big Boi's heavy hitting southern rap record, while The Love Below perfectly illustrates Andre's personality. Definitely something different. An all-time classic, regardless of genre.
