This product is sold as a CD SECOND or SPARE.
"CD seconds" or "spares" are perfectly good data wise, but have been put aside due to:
- faulty label printing, e.g. off colour or misaligned. A few have been manually labelled or corrected
- over-produced initially, so offered as "spares" to clear
They are all offered at 60% to 90% discount (from the normal price). They will be supplied in clear CD sleeves, rather than the normal CD cases. It is the last available, i.e. it won't be available, even at full price, when sold out.

Bournville a town in Worcestershire is famous for its close connections to the history of the Cadbury Schweppes company. Cadbury's as we know it today started from humble beginnings in Bull Street, Birmingham. A shop was opened by John Cadbury in 1824. It did not start as a confectionery shop but sold tea and coffee and home made drinking chocolate or cocoa which he made himself for his customers.
In those days cocoa and chocolate was a luxury and affordable by only the wealthy. John's experiments with chocolate and an aggressive marketing campaign soon made him a leading trader in Birmingham. The shop prospered and became more and more popular.
By the early 1840's Cadbury operated from a factory in Bridge Street and went into partnership with his brother Benjamin. Chocolate was now within reach of the masses. New processes and a new product called cocoa essence helped the business improve after hard times, so much so that by the turn of the decade they were able to move from the Bridge Street factory to what is now Bournville.
