Helpful staff and excellent service
The staff were very helpful in sourcing 2 DVDs for me. Both were old 70/80s films. One was in stock and the other ordered. The ordered arrived in a couple of days. Very impressed with the service and would recommend using the HMV Reading store to family and friends.

i bought a newjeans(kpop) album today and i noticed that the photocards were missing (it was sealed so it was most likely the manufacturers fault) and i contacted costumer service and they told me to return/exchange it
