Went to HMV Darlington today
Went to HMV Darlington today. The staff were amazing and super kind. They run gigs for local artists and all sorts. The staff’s attitude towards being inclusive is superb.

One Life dvd
I'd already watched the true story called One Life at the cinema. Just happened to see it advertised on tv, so I ordered the dvd for my parents to watch just over a week ago.
I was updated of it's delivery via e-mails from HMV, Once it had arrived in store a few days later. I was left a voicemail to inform me it was ready for collection.

75p for a bag
Spent £70 on 4 dvds& and 5 CDs. At the checkout agent said, 75p for a bag. Told the agent I had no more cash on me only the £70. Had to carry the dvds and CDs loose in my hands around Darlington for over an hour as agent wouldn't let me have a bag to carry the£70 worth of items I had just bought. Been shopping at hmv since early 90,s. Buy all my dvds there, never again. It's Amazon from now on. The most unhelpful and disinterested staff possible hmv Darlington you've helped to lose another customer.
