Hello Sid

Thanks for taking the time to leave us a 4-star review!

We are sorry to hear that your order did not reach you in time for its intended release date. Please be advised that although we do dispatch our pre-orders with the aim of a release date delivery, we are regrettably unable to guarantee this. It is, however, unusual that an order is not received by the release date, and for this, we offer our apologies.

We hope to earn that last star from you soon. 

Many Thanks,

hmv

Hi Mrs Attwood, 

Thanks for taking the time to leave us a review. 

We're sorry to hear of the confusion regarding what was included with your purchase. The title of the album you purchased was Taylor Swift's The Life of a Showgirl: Sweat and Vanilla Perfume, but this doesn't include any actual perfume I'm afraid. It does have some great extras though like collectible front and back cover art and a double-sided poster, which we hope you're enjoying!

Prompt Service

Pre-ordered 3 versions of an album and it arrived first thing on the day of release! You can always rely on them to send things well packaged and promptly.
