I've never had a problem with Zavvi before, but they've really dropped a bollock with this one (apologies for the language).

Orders in at HMV.

Edit: just checked my HMV order, within in ten minutes of ordering it's now showing a status of 'Complete, will be despatched in accordance with selected shipping option'

That's amazing service!

It really is quite ridiculous to have no stock of a pre-order title so those of us who ordered it several weeks before the release date have no chance of receiving it on the same week as it was released.

I've ordered Cannibal Holocaust from Zavvi and I'm seriously considering switching to HMV or Amazon (probably the former due to Pure Points) and will e-mail Zavvi telling them exactly why and why I cancelled my order of Almost Human.

I wish the lenticular sleeve would fit inside the case, as I prefer panel B.
Not complaining, though

Me too Nos. I've got Cannibal Holocaust, Maniac Cop & Don't Torture A Duckling pre-ordered from them. Going to cancel the lot.
Even my Funhouse Blu, which I also pre-ordered, has got a 'Usually despatched within 1 month' status, so I've got to re-order that too.

Anywhoo, on a positive note & back to topic, HMV have sent my copy out. It'll be a bloody miracle if I get one with a lenticular sleeve!

It's just as well that the rest of the artwork rocks.

Well I received my copy this morning from HMV (two days from ordering!) & I'm Happy to report, I got a copy with the lenticular sleeve.

Well chuffed!

Recieved my copy from HMV today, and managed to get the lenticular cover version. I know I said I wasn't bothered, but the collector inside wouldn't let me pass it up!
