That should be fine just make sure you download - if you want to be sure you can use a free VPN Service Windscribe to trick it to a UK ip address
Why, we want more sales for Steps?
So it can be disqualified for chart rigging?
Bulk buying doesn't (or shouldn't) count
I mean if there was any way to describe my buying of What The Future Holds Part 2 it would be bulk buying. Bulk buying and hoarding.

Was just referring to when Santa Maria was disqualified from the charts due to alleged bulk buying. (The irony being most people in here have bought in bulk but this was buying just the one format cd many times from the same shop).
Ahh I see.
Has anyone else had any official email saying their signed vinyl has been shipped?
And how good are Chalkys with shipping?
I’ve not had an email but I’ve gone into my orders and the tracking says Royal Mail have it at my local distribution centre, so it should be here tomorrow.
What is the cut off for buying physical versions? If I can convince some friends to get them today will they count?
As long as they are Purchased and Shipped by 23:59 today they will still count.

In person yes. Online, only if they're dispatched today.
Album sales are currently so dire (and the industry's last money making hope) the charts company doesn't really care to be honest.
Now if the same stunt was being pulled in 1998 when there were 4-5 big majors fighting for that career-boosting, tour-selling, PR-loving No 1 album there would be a big furore.

I'm not sure if I said this before.
But seeing H and Lee together gets me in the feels. They are the best pop duo going.
Pop Husband's for life!

I was thinking the same thing when someone said they're surprised the official charts haven't stepped in using the multiple formats to assist with sales but your right singles and albums tend not to be the money makers anymore it's the tours
However it still suprises me of how strict they are for Physical Single formats still. Especially in comparison to Physical Album formats.
You would have thought they would have modified this, in this day and age.
Its been suggested that they might ban it one day... But I think if they were to ban multi-format bundles album sales would be so low that the OCC would be almost irrelevant.
