That Pistonheads Book Thing...

[Deluded]

... Is it actually possible to buy it?

I have been to WHSmiths Hanley, WHSmiths Newcastle, WHSmiths Ormskirk and a few others where the name escapes me and none of them have it or even appear to have ever had it to appear to be getting it.

Does this thing actually exist anywhere other than the internet? Has anyone actually bought it, with cash, in a shop? Where!!???

I've got mine.

I pre-ordered it and was posted to me.

I'm in it.

[Deluded]

But thats no good. I want to walk into a shop and walk out with it in my hand. Nowhere seems to have it anywhere so I want to know if the whole WHSmiths selling it thing was a load of rubbish or not.

Tesco are supposed to be getting it in Jan but I'm not holding out on actually finding it.

Tesco.

[Deluded]

So did WHsmiths ever actually have it?

And which Tesco? The news thing on here said it was selected stores. Theres a hell of alot of stores to select.

Being a Mod my free copy (hardback) arrived yesterday. Nice of PetrolTed to sign it for me

I managed to find a copy in w h smith Aberdeen, just saw the smiley peeking out from behind another magezine.

Pretty shoddy work by W H smith tbh

Yep, they do. WHSmith Kingston had it yesterday.

They have been next to bloody useless in getting it on sale when they told us they would though.

Got mine from a WHSMiths a few days ago. There were only 4 on the shelves.

Bought a copy this morning in Tesco Leyland (Lancashire). Looks like they had only just been put on the shelf as there were at least 8 copies left. Maybe Tesco only started putting them out today.

Snap. There was only one left when I got mine.

[anonymous-user]

What does anyone think of it?

[Ireland]

I ordered mine on-line (well there's not much chance of finding it in a shop over here, is there) and it arrived the week before Christmas.

It's the sort of mag you pick up and flick through while the ads are on.

Same here.

Ditto, ordered pre Christmas though. Sent e-mail to ask what the situation is but no reply yet. I am assuming they don't get back to work till Monday.

If I haven't had a reply by Thursday next week I will chase. Hopefully someone will see the thread and comment though.

Main thread going here,

http://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&a...

May answer a lot of questions where to get their copy.

As Gareth said, there's another thread running on the topic and both Garlick and I are aware of some of the issues relating to WHSmith availability. If we could keep the discussion on the other thread that'd be great.
