I just bought A Twisted Christmas at Best Buy. I was disappointed to see however, that it was not out with the new releases and not with the Christmas display. Where was it????? After about 30 minutes of two employees searching, all copies were found in a cardboard box underneath the CD's and behind some other crap! Good thing I got there when I did! If you don't see the CD's in stores, ask for it, we want it DISPLAYED for all to see!! Whew! That was a close call. Boo to Best Buy!

Best Buy is notoriously bad for putting stuff out. I recently paid $6000 for a program getting a special card to highligh the cd. I went to 5 BB's looking for it and ther e was none. I am still fighting to get our money back.

I forget if it was Best Buy or Circut City, but some odd store when Still Hungry came out only got ONE copy because they didn't think it would sell.

Bastards.

I have not been to Best Buy yet; will probably go over the weekend. However, I went to the flagship HMV store here in Toronto, which has a huge metal section so expected to find the CD racked in the New Release, and let me tell you, I was shocked. Not only was it not racked, it was not even in the metal section! I had to ask if they had it in. They told me it is on the third floor in the Christmas section...where nobody goes unless you are looking for jazz and classical. And it still wasn't racked...they set up a section in the bin! That's a real good way to promote an album!

If anyone is traveling through airports, the company I work for, InMotion Entertainment, has plenty of copies. And we've got it displayed with the new releases. All but one of our stores are in airports so you need to be flying. We do have a store in Grand Central Station, though. If you live in New York, you should be able to pick it up there without any problem.

Well, I went to the Best Buy near Yorkdale here in Toronto, and for any Torontonians on here, that is the place to go! It was on the new release wall (if you can call it a wall?), there were 7 copies and they were selling it for only $15.99! The cheapest price I have seen. Mind you this is the second time I have found them to be cheapest on a new release. Same thing when Iron Maiden's Death on the Road DVD came out - they were a good $2-3 less than everybody else.
