Just thought I’d let you know that I was at HMV on Friday. They didn’t have the Rox DVD in stock but he said that he’d order it in for me. He said it will take 10 days for it to come in so I’m awaiting anxiously till then.
I know some people here will think that this is just stupid and I shouldn’t be so excited over a stupid DVD that has several major errata in it, but for someone who has seen only about 3 Roxette videos in full this is a major achievement!
I’d like to thank several people here who told me about the fact that HMV order things in for people who ask for them. If I hadn’t have known I’d still be dwelling around the lack of Roxette videos in Ireland. I couldn’t care any less about other people in Ireland who don’t have the Roxette DVD.
Two bad things about getting the Roxette DVD:
1)The DVD costs €26.99 (£20.00), that’s almost twice as much as it is in Swansea.
2)By getting the DVD & watching the videos I’m destroying the whole conception that I have for Roxette. That Roxette are this international phenomenon and that I shouldn’t be able to watch the video’s. But who cares? I’m getting the DVD!

Small-Talker: Great to hear that your great quest is almost complete... Well done...
Yes the cost is currently showing as 12.99 in Swansea HMV, but that’s because of a sale that is currently happening throughout the entire store. It’s regular price is 20.00 (and worth every penny).
It’s a big DVD and packed full of great stuff... trust me... you’ll love.

HMV really are great
They called me on Wednesday night to tell me that they had the DVD. That was fast. They got it in 5 days! Not bad at all!
If you’ll excuse me I’m going to go watch my wonderful new Roxette DVD... nanananana! lol

Yay! :):):)
Yup, HMV are pretty good! If it takes longer than they quoted, they also phone you to tell you... giving you the option to continue with the order, or go elsewhere. Which is pretty decent of them! :)
Well, enjoy the DVD! :)

Yay you! :)
See, that wasn’t so hard was it! :D
Can I just add, I don’t find fault in the DVD! Ok, the quality isn’t all that great, but if it is for your own enjoyment who cares?!
Bloomin’ good value if I do say so myself! You’d pay up to £16.99 nowadays for 12 videos on a cheap, chewupable video cassette, and look what you are getting on this DVD!! :D
