I, myself haven't, although I've been in HMV both today and yesterday and saw a couple of people buy a whole stack of them.
Part of me wishes I didnt have all his back catalogue so I could join in but have had, Bad, Off The Wall, Essential, Number Ones, Dangerous and of course Thriller for several years now.
I have 2 HMV stores where I live and I have been in both asking for MJ posters but they have both said that everything that they have which is MJ-related has unfortunately sold out. I guess this could mean albums and DVDs also.
I think Man In The Mirror is still in the running for being No.1 this week. For example, La Roux with her debut album was leading by quite a margin through most of the week, then suddenly over the last two days The Essential Michael Jackson leaped ahead. So don't rule out Man In The Mirror being No.1.
well we will not know till the charts are announced on Sunday, but man in the mirror slipped to #6 on itunes yesterday (before the memorial), but since has gone back up to #3.
its #2 in the charts (i.e position released form sunday) at the mo from last week (even tho it had gone down on itunes sales) so hopefully if people keep downloading, the UK can make man in the mirror #1
other than that his number ones was #1 in the albums chart last week, then this week the essential michael jackson is at #1 so hopefully one of his albums will remain at #1
i think his music is still dominating the charts though, which is amazing

oh and amazon in the UK sold out of all their MJ stuff recently, i got something ordered off their for myself and it took longer to arrive as they needed to get more MJ stock
Thanks for the info bobmoo79. Looks like Michael is dominating the album chart. It seems like the sales of Off The Wall and HIStory have jumped up big time. I know a lot of shops worldwide are stuggling to keep up the demand, they order a huge batch and then its gone in no time.
My nearest HMV had MJ stuff when I went last week, but they weren't selling much to begin with. They only had OTW, Thriller, Dangerous, KOP compilation, and a MJ & J5 compilation for the CDs. Then for DVDs they had Moonwalker on dvd and like 1 copy of HIStory vol 2. No posters or anything else, but I didn't think to ask if they'd be getting other stuff in.
