HMV 12" Hell starts here!

uh-oh. jst received a email from hmv hq. part of my order has been despatched. one 12" (blue monday one). Oh and another message, part of my order has been despatched (the krafty one). how long do you think it's going to take to receive all 12! Another HMV online classic!

I've filled out the order at the site several times now, and each time I back out again! Seems like my fears are justified then. I already had enough trouble with the 3 x 7" and this complete set would set me back GBP80 including postage so I'm still swithering.

By courier it would cost me a whopping GBP217 but even that I'm sure doesn't guarantee a complete all at once delivery.

Well ,i got an email saying they have shipped 10 of the 12.

10 is a pretty good start .Fairly happy with that.

You won't be saying that when the postman folds them in half to go through your letterbox...

Whereas a 7", or three, theoretically, should just slide right in there.

The postmen are pretty good round here.They don't try and force parcels through.They just put the card through ,telling you the package can be collected from the main office

That wasn't my fault...

I know, OB. Just a little Friday shenanigans.

Brazilian postmen, Australian postmen. They're all a few letters short of a sack.

I just (within the last 15 minutes) received an e-mail for each 12" that I had ordered from HMV (I purchased 5 of the 12). Does that mean that they are sending each 12" individually? (i.e. will I receive 5 different packages???) Does not make much sense. But at least it is nice that they sent out notifications. I know a lot of people have had issues with HMV. I ordered the 3x7" WFTSC from sirendisc last time, so I will keep you posted on how my order(s) come in to the US from HMV.

Keeping fingers crossed

DC, you sorted? The offer stands re posting them out to you.

I,m not even going to bother with the 12's s it happens. even if i did get them no fuckin way would i order from HMV,they fucked my order up last time plus i'm STILL waitinf for one of the sirens 7's, useless fuckwits!

JUNO

Does anyone know if there is going to be anything available to house the 12"'s? Like a box?!

Yes BLUE PETER are making one from three Cornflakes packets.Cover in sticky back plastic and write on it in YELLOW crayon "NEW ORDER - VINYL CONFLICT".

And i too got an email for each shipment.Can't believe they'll ship each of the first 10 individually
