Has anyone actually been able to purchase a non-download, non-promo copy of the The New Flesh single?

I'm in the US and have (pre)ordered mine through Amazon and I have yet to hear of anyone finding one in a store or even getting one delivered in the mail... and I'm honestly getting a little concerned.

Pre-ordered mine from HMV online (I'm based inthe UK but no chance of getting to a store this side of xmas) - oh what a surprise, it's "On order from our specialist supplier". Why didn't you order the f**king thing before it was due you f**king numpties? And why did I order from HMV again, they always always fail miserably. Bastards. Right, where can I get it from quickly, so I can cancel the HMV fiasco?

Have you tried Cargo? I've had simaler problems with HMV online. In fact I've placed about 5 orders and ha to cancel them all for the same reason!

None in Harrogate HMV.
None in York HMV.
None in Scarborough HMV.
None in York Virgin.

So I got on the train to Leeds today...

None in Leeds HMV.
None in Crash.
7" in Jumbo, but no CD.
7" in Virgin, but no CD.

So I bought the 7" in Virgin (it was cheaper) and asked about the CD. The guy trotted off to the stock room and got me one. I asked him why they weren't on the shelf and he said they'd only just been delivered. On a Thursday afternoon??!!! Yeah right...

Odds of chart position? Pretty much zero when it's this hard to buy the damn thing.
