Good selection of vinyl, but the shop is very untidy, needs simplifying. ALSO, i was ordering from abroad to a family member in England. The site would not let me create a profile for me - then one... See more

Lost trust in the companies

Who ever it was that screwed up the Depeche Mode CDs with Michael Jackson. I went to two separate stores and brought three CDs - the third opened by the staff.
My family and friends have seen them too - now I don't think I can trust buying a CD, blue ray, or DVD without thinking someone has swapped them. The only redeeming feature was the staff in each other the stores where friendly and explained what happened. But how can I trust now, it is a lot of money for me to waste. Good luck.

Excellent help from Adrian

Excellent help from Adrian! Last week he found a YungBlud cd for me, which I purchased, and helped me to order a Craig
Revell- Horwood cd, released last Winter. I collected this today. Adrian also did some online searching for a USA band that I'm interested in. I lived in Kingston for 18 years from 2006 when HMV was in the basement close to McDonald's! So glad you're back,now on the 1st floor. YAY 😃 Happy 80yr old.

I ordered my CD from you online

I ordered my CD from you online, because I couldn't find it at the other Kingston record shop, and they were doubtful they could order it in. I collected the order at Kingston after a couple of days.

Just knowing that HMV is still going, is a good thing

Just knowing that HMV is still going, after all these years, is a good thing!
Would like to see you back in Wimbledon again.
Yes online is ok, but it's a different experience going to the store.
Thank You!
