Has anyone received their copies of Minimal from Amazon yet. I've not even had an email to say they've been shipped.

The same here. Fundamental Special Edition was shipped even before it was officially out.
Amazon is generally excellent; even if there is any delay in shipping, it sends a notice but this time there is nothing.

got mine from Amazon yesterday and a shipping email last week.
Only downside is the cd singe of minimal wont play in my car as it is almost like a mini disk, the actual cd part is only a couple of inches wide, the rest is just clear plastic!
Plus the remix cd isnt exactly exciting. Bit disappointed really

the M-Factor remix is fantastic - in fact, I would say it's the best remix cd in a long long time

I'm confused! I ordered cd1 and cd 2 from Amazon which arrived yesterday.
CD 1 only has Minimal radio edit and In Private on it and is a funny looking disc, with about 3 inches of clear plastic and the cd content in the middle
CD 2 only has Minimal radio edit and 2 other remixed plus the pc mix software thing on it.
However, the listing on Amazon is -
CD 1 & CD2
6 versions of Minimal
In Private
Blue On Blue
No Time For Tears
HELP!
PLEASE HELP!

I've emailed Amazon to see what they're playing at regarding late delivery for some of us...

Vague response just received from Amazon :
Dear Customer
Thank you for writing to Amazon.co.uk.
We apologise for the unexpected delay in dispatching your order
#xxx
We confirm that your items are on hand and ready to dispatch, and your
package should leave our Fulfilment Centre soon.

Thank you again for shopping at Amazon.co.uk. We hope you enjoy your
order.
Please let us know if this e-mail answered your question:
No answer to why some have received their CD's and others haven't. I asked if they'd had stock and sold out, no response.

My Amazon order hasn't shipped either. I have ordered all three formats from them and presumed the delay was due to the DVD being out of stock. Boo!

Still nothing from Amazon, folks.
One wonders if it is because the single is so popular that stocks are falling short or it is distributed in scarce number. The first option seems a little bit laughable but I don't believe Amazon wouldn't be able to find enough copies to send because of insufficient release.

I cancelled my order as they showed no signs of showing up.
I had this problem before. When I e-mailed them to find out what was happening I got the stock "we are dependent on our suppliers" drivel.
I think it is a lot easier for me to simply go into the shop and buy them from now on. Amazon are perfectly useless.

I cancelled the DVD because it now says dispatch is 3 - 6 days.
It was holding up the rest of my order, which is now dispatching soon
I bought it off HMV instead today, and it looks like it'll be 1 - 3 days for dispatch instead, so I'm much happier now!

I think you two that posted last are being bone idle! Especially you kitten. You live in a big city. Get to the shops. I'll even allow you to catch the bus. The internet needs banning. It's making people lazy.

And it is the ultimate (and sadly only) resort for some
