never mind HMV, to my mind no one can beat AMATO - they definitely have a new customer here.
Ordered 1st of March, despatched the same day, arrived here 6th of March, all complete, no cockups AND 15 quid cheaper than HMV !

got my final 2 x 12"'s from HMV online today, after over a week and a half of deliveries almost one each day....
what a carry on....
anyway, just a couple of complaints really,
white sleeves, they look very nice new, but are subject to every single little mark, even if you put them straight into protective sleeves, and most certainly more susceptable to ring wear...not the best colour choice, but they do look nice at this very moment - its gonna be hard keeping these in the same condition that they arrived in....
also the sleeve weight, so flimsy, three of mine have already split at the seems slighlty and the vinyl pops out the side...whats that about...?
and thirdly - what's with the cat. number system on these...
NSER 007 - NSER 019
were the numbers NSER 001-NSER 006 used for something else??
still glad i have these now...

Yup, sleeves are flimsy as fcuk and, as you say, susceptible to marks - took me quite a long time in HMV to find the least affected sleeves - very few of them had no markings at all... 
Anyway, NSER 001-NSER 006 are previous New State Recording releases - notice they also missed out NSER 013 (obviously being superstitious)! :)
