Couldn't be bothered to wait for my pre-order to turn up so bought a copy from Brighton. Still think it is pretty piss poor this "selected singles" is the only vinyl release. a back catalogue such as the Manics' deserves a proper triple vinyl edition.

It won't end well.

This company hasn't done much, if anything, right so far.

Almost glad my order was cancelled because it might have arrived scratched anyway

The great thing about liking someone/a band is you can spend all your time telling them what they do wrong.

all this negativity about the online-orders has got me nervous about mine, hopefully everything should work out though, i don't want to cancel my order on the principle that i shouldn't have to.

ho hum, oh well, if everything goes terrible i can always pick one up on Ebay for the reasonable price of £50!

I ordered mine through greatmagazines.co.uk as well and also haven't received it, aargh! Just sent them a rather angry e-mail so hopefully I'll hear something back from them soon, although the whole organisation seems like a complete farce!
