    "Availability: on order from supplier" which for HMV translates to "we have sold out of this item and it is actually permanently unavailable but our web development team are really lazy and couldn't be arsed to remove it from our product list" So if you do order don't actually expect to ever get one ;-)

    As through this life you travel,
    you meet some funny men
    Some rob you with a six-gun,
    and some with a fountain pen

    doesnt work on 360 or original cos its out of stock and wont ever be back. HMV very poor on this. I thought it was a bargain months back but never got one.

    Got one with a live trial pack from amazon wired for about £8 and Homebargains had some old ones a few months back

    Sorry to sound negative but read the original post on hotdeals and there are a lot of people saying the same !
  • Gotta agree... been watching these for a few months, waiting for them to come back in stock. Price drops, but the stock level doesn't change!

    They may never be in stock again but I ordered 2 just in case they ever do. HMV don't take payment until the order ships so you might as well try
