You should be able to find a UK store using their catalogue number and the WorldWide navigator.

I really don't understand the "OMG GOOGLE IT" comments, if you have no idea what a product is called, then Google isn't really an option. It's not like he came in saying "HAY GUYS WHATS MICROSOFTS WEBSITE?".

What if someone asked "Hey guys whats Google's website"

You could tell them to Yahoo it.

most things can be found very easy with simple/vague descriptive terms,imo its just plain idleness with ppl most of the time ,i mean comon if someone was asking for a chemical formula fair play ,but stuff to glue on the front of a mag? ,ive already said its silicon,someone else said use bluetack ,someone with abit of creative imagination will shortly put semen.

Come on.

it took me 2 minutes to find it.

googled for: magazine cd glue uk supplier

http://www.google.co.uk/search?q=ma...ient=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official

3rd link mentions 'hot melt glue' in relation to affixing stuff.

Then I searched for: hot melt glue uk supplier

http://www.google.co.uk/search?q=ho...ient=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official

and first link is www.gluegunsdirect.com

Using the menu bar on the top of this website I selected:

Adhesive solutions -> Packaging -> Peelable adhesives.

It took longer to post this than it did to find it.

Oh and the google mofo picture was pretty funny.

I'd use semen

What is the purpose of a forum if people can't seek advice.

If you don't think their question is worthy of a response, don't respond.

Don't know why but the nickname & reply just seem connected

Googling....

Nicely done. I considered hot-melt glue, but didn't think it would be appropriate for affixing a CD. I suppose if it's in an envelope it shouldn't hurt.
