Very helpful and friendly!

I bought the 3 for £66 deal but there was one record I wanted that was supposedly in stock, but I couldn’t find it. Multiple members of staff started looking for it, but after it was nowhere to be found I placed a click and collect order. Unfortunately when I collected the order, one of the vinyls came pre-scratched. I contacted HMV and was told I could take it in-store for an exchange, or post it back for a refund. When I went back into HMV Reading, the staff were once again very accommodating. I exchanged my vinyl for a different album in the end and it’s perfect, I love it so much. I was very happy with the helpfulness and friendliness of the staff in store as well as online.
