is it just me or is the slipcase not quite big enough? think the spine should be slightly wider...
Yeah,you're not alone.I suppose you're supposed to just put the three inner blue sleeves in without the picture sleeves,but would YOU want to part with not one..but three naked ladies???
In my case i'm not even sure I will be getting all 3 despite ordering them a couple of weeks before it was out from HMV.co.uk.

Just a friendly warning, T.
Just been to my local HMV to pick up the 7"s. Irritatingly, they had no copies of the Temptation one but about 10 each of Egg and BLT. Has there been some cock-up in the distribution or mis-labelling ? I've now got to plan some trips elsewhere just to pick up 1 bloody 7". They're not limited to 1,000 are they ? Hope not as I've probably missed it then.
Bought mine in HMV yesterday- 99p for each single and the gatefold free (via post).
It's a thing of beauty; especially when you consider the whole package cost less than £3 (although the singles don't fit in the gatefold properly).
It's a shame that people outside of the UK can't get hold of this with ease thou'.

The twats -- 2 for me !
We have shipped the following items in your order XXXXXXXX on 2005-09-29: 1 SS NEW ORDER WAITING FOR THE SIRENS CALL GBP 0.991 SS NEW ORDER WAITING FOR THE SIRENS CALL GBP 0.99
What will happen to the third i ordered ?
Bought mine yesterday from HMV (Henry Street, Dublin 1!) Asked for all 3 & they had them ready behind the counter - handy. Paid €3.99 each!!! Asked if they were definitly in the correct slieves - "we never open any discs anymore - they're exactly the way we got them" (you can see where i'm going with this, cant you?
Finally put them on the (newly dusted down) turntable this morning to find that - I had 2 copies of the EGG version
one was in the BLT slieve
So now i'll have to waste another afternoon traveling in to the City to replace it (if they have the right one at all:( )

got the same second mail as well, what a palaver!
especially since I asked them to hold my order until all complete (dvd and cd as well). keeping a tight eye on the total postage here 
i got the 1st 7" in a envelope on its own bent to fook i might add, rung em up went a bit nuts at the guy on the phone, jiffy bags and vinyl don't mix you prick etc. the kind man gave me an address to send it back to, what a farce, went to glasgow today HMV there had them all. Could've saved myself aload of hassle and phonecalls.
HMV suck
Received mine in perfect condition from Siren Disc today. They look sweet! I was surprised to see the small center hole for the 7" vinyl,, instead of the larger one that you would have to insert that plastic adapter in to use them on the turntable. The only problem I see is that the inner sleeve is cardboard as well, not the paper that 12" vinyl tradionally are packaged in. Would record shops in larger cities sell generic white protection sleeves for 7" records? I would like to get some as another added layer of protection for these babies. I see in a few years these being very valuable items. I could be wrong, but I cannot see too many people owning a set of these except for those in this forum. Anyway, cheers!
Only actually received 2 of them yet,the third is being COLLECTED this morning.Hope it is packaged WELL.I must admit i do enjoy the sound of JACKNIFE LEE's Remix.The covers are well done and i just wish that the CARDBOARD sleeve had arrived but alas NO JOY.
Still aint got ANY!
recieved an email from hmv saying they'd shipped one,also got a mail from them saying they'd shipped singles,but never mind singles where the fook's my wftsc 7's!
I will NEVER USE HMV AGAIN!
juno.co.uk's very good I've found. I ordered the US Jetstream 2x12" set plus two sets of the WFTSC seven inches. Arrived 2 days after I ordered and were packaged really well.
I haven't used HMV online before but from all these stories of only one record out of three being shipped I'm steering well clear

cheers for that alistir,will have a look at juno.co.uk a bit later!
What a shambles.
Went into HMV in Bath while on hols on Mon 26th. Was told the release fate was 3rd October.
Later in the week, in a tiny back street record shop, found all 3 in pristine condition in the new release 7" single section.
Who's to blame for what seems to be a monumental cock-up.
I got a dreaded out of stock e-mail from HMV and I have also found out thier order fulfillment centre is non-operational between today and 5th October due to them relocating the online side of thier operations to Guernsey!! What a complete bunch of cunts!! Needless to say I've decided never to deal with them again and cancelled my order...pity, I was looking forward to help NO's triumphant return to a no.15-20 spot on the charts
Just curious...anyone on the Stateside has the 7"s? Where did you order yours from? Thanks! :D

I ordered from http://SirenDisc.Com and all three arrived (in mint condition) on Friday. Plus, they only charge .99 per order, regardless of size.
I've not received them yet, one was sent early last week and the other two at the end of last week, but having read how they are packaged, I live in fear :D
I got an email from HMV stating that they have shipped two of the singles (do not know which ones) and have ordered the other from their suppliers. No mention of the CD single. A sense of foreboding permeates through my body!
I,m still waiting.... GOD DAMN MOTHER FOOKIN HMV.
they keep sending me emails saying that 1 has been sent ,then the other has been sent but i still aint got em............ARGHHHHHHHHH
