HMV: Bona Drag LTD Edition vinyl released today (July 24, 2021)

Today sees Morrissey’s Bona Drag re-released amongst 36 other artist's limited edition albums to commemorate HMV's Centenary.
For all intents and purposes, this is the 2010 Major Minor expanded 20th anniversary edition of the record (not forgetting it was re-pressed again in 2016 too), except in coloured vinyl and has a HMV obi strip with the 100 years information.
Along the edge of the strip 'teal vinyl' is mentioned.
There is no matrix message on either record.
The sleeve contains the Zodiac car picture foldout poster:

HMV's appear to have used the same reservation in the queue system as last year and it was: fill in a form/collect when open.
The free coffee was a nice touch.

According to HMV's Twitter & website, from 4pm: any left to sell will be available via their online store (which was done for Vauxhall & I too):

Saturday July 24 marks the company's centenary vinyl 'Exclusives Day', an event in which record collectors will be able to purchase vinyl in stores (and online from 4pm) that are available for one day only.

(HMV Darlington)

Currently 53 on eBay - with those already sold almost 10% of the edition

I assume the new teal Bona Drag is a 2LP? If yes then the £32 price isn't too bad, compared to RSD 1LP coloured vinyl releases for €35 (e.g. Aliens).

It is, yes.

I have just taken delivery of the RSD Europe green vinyl
It looks to be the 2010 version with a sticker over the barcode. The sticker number is the same number as the HMV barcode on the rear.
see below the 2010 release next to the 2016 release showing the barcodes and finally, the RSD Europe green vinyl with the sticker over the top
See also the HMV rear
The RSD ie obviously also double vinyl

Edit
The Euro RSD is the 2016 release with a sticker over the barcode and the same green vinyl as HMV

Looks like it completely sold out today (unless more get added to HMV website later today)

EDIT: Managed to get one, don't lose faith!
