Having told me they ahd it in stock and would put a copy aside at the speke store of hmv, when I arrived, they said they could not sell it. They then stated that all stores in London had been told to remove it from their shelves.

If you can get one, get it now........ otherwise, it looks like monday

It's a shame for the WH that HMV have ballsed it up, as obviously it'll impact their charting potential. (If they care about such things these days?)

Still, I'm as happy as a pig in shit.

I pre-ordered mine from Amazon, but having heard that it's in HMV Croydon I'm tempted to cancel my order and bus it up there.

Bastards.

Rang HMV Basingstoke up and they said they had 8 in stock but went to collect and they said there had been a mistake and they could'nt sell me it until Monday and that the stores that have sold them so far have been told to take them off the shelves.

Dear oh dear, HMV. How's it going to compete with Arctic Monkeys for the number one spot next week now? :D

(None in Bristol but I looked late tonight so I suspect the 'cease and desist' order had gone out...)

Hi all

Got the album today, haven't listened to it yet (Just burning it now)
Just to let people know it is available in certain places if you know where to look (Wink Wink)

HMV in Liverpool don't have it, So I'll have to wait till Monday for the original

Not sure the fault lies totally with HMV, cos like I said in my other post, 99% of new release stock comes in a few days before it's due for release, and its very rare that stock comes in more than 7 days before its release date. To the staff on the floor who arent into the Wildhearts it would have just seemed like another new release, and as such gone out with the rest of that week's releases. Unfortunately it was my job to put it out in our store, and they knew that I would know it was early, so i would have got a massive bollocking for letting it slip out. The Newcastle store sold a few too, not sure if they've pulled it yet. From my point of view, it seems odd that Cargo would distribute it so early.

Don't worry if you haven't got it tho, it's worth the wait!
