Amazon.co.uk question for UK users
I got a question for all those UK members here...
my mom ordered me two singles and an album from Amazon.co.uk for Christmas and basically all 3 were new. the album itself was wrapped in plastic with a sticker on top, but the singles were the cardboard maxi type, so they are a cardboard front and back with a plastic tray/cd on the inside back cardboard. both of these came as is, not sealed in plastic, which I thought was weird for a new item. one of them has a sticker too,b ut its just ont he front cardboard....any thoughts? I emailed amazon.co.uk but they haven't responded yet.... |

It's been a while since I bought a single, but if memory serves me correctly they aren't usually sealed in plastic.

I can't definitely say anything since I don't live in the UK, but the CDs I've gotten from there aren't consistent when being wrapped in plastic. I think it's just some aspect of the industry.

so when you go into record shops and look at singles they are just sitting there open? |

I honestly haven't looked at the singles section in years. When I bought singles years ago they'd have the empty case out on a shelf which you'd take to the till and they'd put the CD in for you. I don't know if it's the same now, I'll have a look next time I'm in town.
