I lost all my vinyl today because we had a flood in my basement. It got all wet and was beyond saving. It is a very sad day in my house.
Well, the cardboard covers are probably shot but the disks themselves won't be. You can always clean them.
They were completely submersed for a couple hours while we got the water emptied out. I am relatively certain they are probably toast but I will try drying them out before I get rid of them.
Really a bad thing. I would invest in a Spin Clean (very reasonable cost) and give a try at cleaning the disks. Music direct sells MoFi liners for the disks and while you won't have the covers any longer at least the disks will be protected. Worth a shot at least.
