Overpacking

Is it bad to overpack your record bag?

I'm going to Australia and I've shoved as many records as I could possible fit into my bag. I seriously can't fit another one in there. Do you think this will be bad for my records... or will the increased tightness help prevent my vinyls from getting destroyed?

Any suggesions?

If you think about the force and pressure that would be exerted on the records from both sides when you pack them tightly, i'm pretty sure that it's NOT a good idea to pack them too tightly.

hmmmm, good point... now that I think about it... it's not a carry-on either, adn I can see them just tossing my bag on the plane like it was nothing
