HMV Vinyl Week 2016 [UK]

[Noodles]

Thought I'd create a thread for it since it's a yearly event and is being discussed in multiple threads.

hmv vinyl week is almost here! Starting next Monday 13 June we will have great discounts on loads of vinyl albums ready for Father's Day.

But that's not all - on Saturday 18 June we will also have an amazing selection of hmv exclusive limited edition vinyl, including coloured vinyl, plus you can get your hands on selected vinyl reissues weeks before they're available anywhere else!

The limited edition vinyl exclusives will be available in all stores and online on a first-come first-served basis (while stocks last) and today we can reveal the FULL list of exclusive titles in our vinyl line-up which will be on sale from Saturday 18 June:

• Sex Pistols: Never Mind The Bollocks, Here's The Sex Pistols (1000 copies on pink vinyl)
• Manic Street Preachers: Everything Must Go (1000 copies on blue vinyl)
• Various Artists: Let's Bop – Sun Records Collection (1000 copies on black vinyl)

All of the above are strictly limited edition vinyl titles available only at hmv, but as well as these exclusives we'll also be offering you the chance to get your hands on a selection of upcoming reissues weeks before they're available anywhere else, including:

• Iron Maiden: Brave New World (first ever edition on black vinyl!)
• Pulp: Different Class

• Various Artists: Guardians Of The Galaxy OST (2 LP soundtrack & film score on black vinyl)

Where can I buy the exclusives?
Titles will be available in-store from Saturday 18th June from opening. All stores will have a limited quantity of all the exclusives which will be sold on a first-come first-served basis. Strictly no reservations. Please arrive in store early on Saturday 18th June to avoid disappointment. A very limited number of exclusives will also be available online from 9am on Saturday 18th June.

How many can I buy?
A maximum of 1 unit per title per customer can be purchased. As an example, customers are able to buy one copy of each of the exclusive albums, but wouldn't be able to buy multiple copies of the same exclusive.

What happens if I miss out on the day?
The titles are very limited and will be sold on a first come first served basis. As well as the exclusives we will also have savings on selected titles.

They only sent one (my latest order - so technically Dan's copy lol). But I received an email from HMV earlier explaining the technical difficulties they experienced on Saturday, and have now updated and also dispatched my original order.

My parents just picked the other one up (along with my copy of Star Wars) from the post office for me though.

That's great news then,

Glad you managed to get both from them and I hope you enjoy your star wars hologram vinyl

The ex machina package is lovely, listened to it all when I got in yesterday laying there in the dark lol was a bit creepy

I do kinda wish the finish on Ava's robot head was gloss or/ and slightly risen

So awesome that it worked out with HMV. Super thankful Nick You're an awesome lad!! Can't wait till both hit your home and it's 100 % safe

This is one of my favorite movies in a long time. OST is a must. Really excited

The Star Wars vinyl is a beaut! I actually bought the CD version just before the hologram edition was announced, so it's basically just a larger version of that, which isn't a bad thing.

Can't wait to rip open the Ex Machina vinyl. I've never actually sat and listened to the entire soundtrack before, so I look forward to doing that.

I'm really glad it worked out too. Let's just hope the rest of its journey goes to plan! Happy to be able to help dude.

Like I said to Flloydo... your copy is actually what arrived today, since it was from the latest order I made. I transferred it from HMV's packaging to the one my Star Wars vinyl came in though, as that's more sturdy. Will update you on postage etc via PM soon!
