This isnt gonna fix it entirely, but should help. Be extremely careful with this though, you could fuck it up worse.
Get a large stack of books and something flat larger than a 12...
warm the record, out of the sleeve and so the record is sitting on the edges created by the warp not on the curve created by the warp (does that make sense?), in the sun, preferably somewhere also flat, like a table near a window that gets alot of light (if this wont work, you can use a hairdryer, but be super careful)...
Leave on table, put back in sleeve, put wood (or glass or whatever flat thing you found) on top and stack a bunch of books on it...
Let sit for a few hours and it should tame the warp...
The other way Ive done it is to over pack your record crate, warm the warped record like said above, sandwich it in the middle of the crate and let sit for a few days.
Ive done it a few times, with mixed results. It might take a few times.

the skweee show at the Mabeth was fucking illness!
The hour and a half DJ set was good, mixing was a bit ropey though, but the tunes were rocking.
The Daniel Savio live set was unbelievable! Anyone that gets the cahcne to see the man in action should not miss out....

sorry to hear that ...here in the forum. you could have sent a pic of the packet & record to check with us first. records were packed in a cardboard that weighted more than the record... should've been enuf. can't help that how the mailman handles the shit. hope you manage to listen it still.
cheers
