This isn't that great, but it was very exciting for me! Last night when I was on my break at work (HMV), I was sitting in the office just being stupid with the computer -- basically I was just looking up bad Cd's. Then I thought, "well I should see what Cd's I'm able to order in if we only customer order them." I found we carry a lot of really awesome Cd's that I'll definitely order in when I can afford it...but the greatest discovery of all: we DO supply nearLY! I was seriously shocked! After my break I went and talked to all of my co-workers telling them about it. So if you ever need an extra copy, call HMV (that is if you live in the UK, Japan, or Canada)!

In the UK Fopp are also happy to order reminder - and they are, generally, a couple of quid cheaper than HMV (sorry Pam!)...I have yet to have any success with Virgin, whose staff have to ask "Did you find everything you were looking for?" when you get to the tills...."Nooooo...."

Yesssss that's us! Actually that's very true that we're not the quickest or the cheapest with those orders. Unfortunately what they have to do is wait for a full order to be made before they ship them all at once. But at least we supply them...that's what I find really awesome!
I should order like 6-7 copies and then cancel them once they arrive and then they'll be exposed to the public on the shelves. I just wish people knew what an amazing album "Reminder" is!

I actually found my copy in the HMV store...I didn't have to order it. It had an import sticker on it, and it was a couple of dollars more exspensive, but it was worth it.

Yeah...now that I have become more familiar with the ordering procedures I realize that Reminder would take a while to come in because it is an import. I vividly remember this day when a guy about my age came in and asked for three amazing albums: Autolux's "Future Perfect," NIN's "Still," and NearLY's "Reminder." I was 100% honest with him saying:
It'd be smart to order Autolux from us because it's from a very reliable supplier, therefore he'd see it in about 1-2 weeks. NIN's album is only available through their merch (unless it's available on eBay/Amazon), but I'd wait it out because it took them about three months to send it to me. And as for Reminder -- I wrote down the website for Kufala and told him it was very reliable and speedy. The only reason I had a hold-up was because of the Christmas rush of mail. But boy was I impressed with his music taste. Those three albums have had life changing effects on me!
