PO: Radiohead - OK Computer - oknotok


Recommended Posts

Opinions are opinions, but if you're one of the few who questioned whether or not the added cost of the box set was "worth it", and watch that teaser, and still dismiss it as a glorified coffee-table book with a bonus cassette tape... you're straight trippin'.  That thing looks like a genuine monster.

via what carrier?

USPS media mail. package has tracking but I never got shipping info via email.

 

Considering the band announced that they shipped these today... seems they shipped them a few days ago and expect them to hit some people's addresses today.

 

 

 

Couple threads popped up on /radiohead as well in the past few hours. Keep your hopes high and your eyes peeled, fam!

I imagine all hubs for huge cities are a nightmare. Especially if your package is being shipped via Media Mail, which has a super low priority when it comes to the order of being dispatched.

1. It's not a hub for a big city, quite the opposite.

2. regardless of service, packages shouldn't stay more than 24 hours at an interm. hub

3. bell gardens is widely known for this

 

this isn't my first media mail package through USPS, guy.

According to my tracking they printed out the tags on 7/1, it officially hit the USPS chain yesterday. Lucky for me Pennsylvania -> New York shipping went way faster than usual and this showed in a day.

Shipped by Asendia in Folcroft, PA right? My label was printed the 1st also, but haven't had any movement since. Hoping it will start heading South soon.

Are the download codes for the cassette activated?

Not sure. Still stuck at work and keeping this puppy wrapped up til he's safely in my apt tonight. Regardless,for the first time ever I'm so glad I still have my shitty highschool cd\cassette player hooked up in my bedroom. Gonna dust that bitch off and listen to a cassette tonight.

I live in Los Angeles and all my packages go through Bell Gardens. Are they a base for packages that go to cities outside LA county too?
