itsgoodtobefree Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 Someone on Discogs says their door hanger was only signed by two of the members, heh. Probably not worth the trouble. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can probably relax those fingers. Unless you want to keep them crossed that the album makes it over to you without getting trashed by the journey.

JohnMatrix Posted September 14, 2017 Share Posted September 14, 2017 This is definitely the first time there has been any issues on my end when it comes to B&N. But I guess their motto is go big or go home because wow was this bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many others did not get their pre-orders. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shitty Rambo Posted September 15, 2017 Share Posted September 15, 2017 I wanna share my National origin story too... Never heard of these guys until I saw them play Blood Buzz Ohio live on Mark Hoppus's short lived Fuse show (Amy Schumer was his co-host, it was a weird time). I was working graveyard shift at the time and was off that night, was full of malt liquor at 4am, and rewound/ watched them play this song 10 times in a row. The next afternoon I woke up and immediately imported a purple copy of High Violet because it was the only copy I could find available online at the time. Ebay mark up, good times.

cobannaboc Posted September 18, 2017 Share Posted September 18, 2017 Just got my Amazon.de order in and the sticker says Limited Edition White. Appears the grey variant doesn't exist after all. Anyone dealt with Amazon returns from Germany before? I might just gift it to a friend and spread The National love. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darnoc Posted September 19, 2017 Share Posted September 19, 2017 My b&n order got cancelled too. Though, in hindsight, I wouldn't have ordered if I'd known it was just a signed door hanger anyways Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oblivions Posted September 19, 2017 Share Posted September 19, 2017 My wife bought the Target exclusive CD with the patch. They did a great job with all their packaging it seems. I really like the design on the smaller CD sized lyric booklet and the patch is less boring in person. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kentin31 Posted September 19, 2017 Share Posted September 19, 2017 I contacted B&N about the door hanger. Their answer: "Upon checking, the item you ordered is a signed LP as shown on the website." Still waiting for it though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shitty Rambo Posted September 19, 2017 Share Posted September 19, 2017 I've given this album a good handful of listens by now and still just find it OK. I feel like I'm listening to Radiohead or something :/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the performances are from 2014, except for Brainy, which is from 2013. Not sure if you can order it as an import, I may have gotten mine through nefarious means.
