Probably because they're coping with being understaffed because a couple of their student part-time "this isn't a real job anyway" staff haven't showed up after a night on the tiles, meanwhile you're trying to keep an eye on those 14 year olds trying to lift nu-metal cds, while dealing with the fifty squillion customers who seem to have descended upon your till with dumb questions like "do you know the one that goes "der duh nah.. er thats not.. I mean duh der nah" and the Fed-ex guy who has just dropped several metric tonnes of stock cartons on your floor is getting impatient for someone to sign for it because he has "23 more deliveries to make today bud", and that phone wont stop ringing and WHO THE HELL NICKED MY LAST NEUROFEN! ....and all for minimal wages too, I've worked in retail, it sucks. Anyway don't tower have a website? whip out yer credit card and pre-order it of the interwebby man!

Do you have any idea of the postal delays for packages coming from the UK (and possibly other countries) at the moment? DVDs sent from sendit.com (Jersey) 27 Sep and 28 Sep - not arrived DVDs sent from London 1 Oct - not arrived An Post are seriously inefficient. There are a lot of dissatisfied punters venting their anger on the customer services helpline while other bitch on boards.ie I live 30 miles away from Dublin so I'm f**ked if I'm heading in there on Saturday to buy a box set unless I know someplace has it in stock.

Yeah good point, post does take ages in this country, especially if you're in a rural area.

F*$king An Post. Bought stuff on ebay which was sent 2 weeks ago. No sign. Last year the lost a whole consignment of post including a watch which I sent for repair. Luckily, I had registered it and got my shillings back. Only took 9 months....

Its out but Tower don't have it in stock. They can get it in on order though, as probably can your local record shop.
