Doesn't make sense though, when you've got slots for 12 different titles, why not fill them with 12 different titles rather than 3 x 4 titles.

Abaddon.

So there you go folks - It's still on somewhere! Thanks for the tip Abaddon.

It was always possible to order Shameless through Zavvi online so sadly I wouldn't read too much into that Vipco.

Mojo your suggestion of HMV is a good one but previously they weren't up for it but we'll see if they fancy doing something in the future. BTW - for everyone's info we're not allowed to ever suggest retail prices to anyone - that's legally known as price fixing so we can agree a price they buy form us at (teeny!) but what they then sell at is another matter out of our control.

Hi Almar,

This is in the Middlesbrough store. I was in yesterday, and the display is [I]still[I] on the wall! I'll get a photo taken on my phone in the next few days and post it on here. Hmm, dodgy reward eh?!

[vipco]

Thats mad Almar, you cant put a price on your own hard work.? Thats disgraceful .

I wonder how much they pay for all the VIPCO VHS transfer disc's they oiked up to 20 quid when VIPCO decided to take a bit of a time out.?

That's right,anything I buy in for the tile industry,the maufacturer's CAN'T put a rrp on things....or face accusations of price fixing as Almar says.....it's a cut throat business the old retail game.....

Ha ha, I took it with a pinch of salt mate, don't worry!

But the promotional display at Middlesbrough HMV is entirely genuine. I'll get that photo to you early next week. Your DVDs look fantastic on display, organised in synch around two copies of the latest Gorezone.

[Almar@Cult Labs]

This I really must see! I might even rake up a decent DVD - anything is possible!

[vipco]

Belfast main Zavvi still have the promo on but the only have 2 or 3 different titles left,several Black Cat, 2 Frightened Woman and not sure what the other 2 boxes were.

Hi Almar,

I've took two photos of the HMV display on my phone and put them on my desktop - I don't know how to attach them to a post on the forum though!

I've been told I need to register to an "album" site, or something? I've sent the photos as attachments via e-mail to almar@shameless.co.uk - although I have no idea if that's a valid e-mail address or not!

Please accept my apologies for my really poor knowledge of getting round a computer!

If you want to PM me your e-mail address, I'll e-mail the photos to you ... alternatively, can you advise how I can get them on to a post on the forum?

Cheers!

Hi Saw,

If you join Photobucket you can upload them there and then attach them by pressing the "Insert Image" icon when you're composing a post on here.

Hope that helps?
