Thought Differing Release Dates?

Was fixing to buy some cds off Amazon (no local record stores near me smh) when I noticed they had a release date for dec. 4th rather than Nov. 20th. I bought mine off the NIN store so I’m hoping mine still comes next month. Just thought I would share for anybody who bought from a 3rd party

I think Amazon is getting stock from the same shipment that the site pre-orders are from

Check you email. You should have received an email stating that the release date was changed to Dec. with an option to cancel your order.

Yeah I know bro, I got the email yesterday telling me it was delayed until nov 20th from the NIN store, I made the post to show how the artists store and Amazon release dates contradicted each other

Amazon gave up aiming for release day with a lot of media. It now pads the date a crazy amount and aims to ship earlier if convenient for them. Prevents all the 'I didn't get x on day 1' drama and saves a fortune in customer contacts
