Arrived quickly and well packaged

Arrived quickly and well packaged. Item was in mint condition and plays well. A little pricey with postage and VAT but worth having because it’s David Lynch

Pick up from in-store

Great to be able to order online and collect instore. Not all companies do this insisting you pay for delivery to your home address. That HMV does this without charge is to be applauded - and it gets you into the store (so you might buy more). Win-win.

Rare DVD purchase

I was able to find a hard-to-obtain item which was dispatched the same day and arrived promptly, with good updates on the progress of the order. Very pleased.

Local author

As with all my visits to the HMV shop in Bath, the service was excellent. On this occasion it was Jack Walters. BUT - why doesn't the shop stock on it's music bookshelves Jack's latest excellent book "Bob Dylan, Song by Song Volume 1 / 1962-1969". He's a local author and his previous book was on Bruce Springsteen. His new book on Dylan has been well-reviewed. I feel strongly that HMV Bath should stock his book and support your staff.
