Lizzie83hp Posted May 30, 2010 Share Posted May 30, 2010 Dunno if it's been asked before (I don't want to go wading through all the comments ), but: I live in Canada and I think all the British magazines we get are a bit behind (the NME I see everywhere isn't the one listed on the site, it's the one with M.I.A on the cover) - so do you think the mag won't even be in stores yet? I wanna know cause I can't find it, and I want to know if I should just order it online before it's too late. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hyper_chondriac_muser Posted May 30, 2010 Share Posted May 30, 2010 My pre-order still hasn't arrived ... I saw this yesterday in Smiths, and I was SOO pissed cos I wanted to buy it, but I've already pre-ordered it and I can't be arsed with the hassle of returning it when it finally does arrive etc blahh lol. I just flicked through... it looks amaehzin! HURRY UP NME YOU SHITEBAGS, lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pythagorus Posted May 30, 2010 Share Posted May 30, 2010 The cover says "Special Collector's Magazine" and "Limited Edition Publication" - regardless of the journalistic quality, it's bound to attract collectors. Just like the Exogenesis vinyl - I don't even own a turntable and I was on the hunt for a copy (no luck ). It's the rarity factor, I think. I know for me, I stopped subscribing to and reading magazines a long time ago, but I'm willing to shell out a little extra for special edition issues on people and things that interest me, if only because they're so - or at least, meant to be - rare and in limited supply and circulation So even though there are scans of the entire issue online and NME breaks no new ground on the Muse front, one-off occasions like this are meant to be celebrated /poetic thesis +1. Even though its mostly stuff I've already read online/other sources I got it because it is limited edition so it feels special (that doesn't apply to those awful awful neon bright polo shirts that came out a few year ago though ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kirby Posted June 1, 2010 Share Posted June 1, 2010 I just found out that my Borders carries NME & Q! But they're way behind on the issues so I have no idea if they'll ever get this special Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I went to the one in the city centre though. You could always order it online if you're desperate. Another £2 of shipping charges though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Horcrux Posted June 2, 2010 Share Posted June 2, 2010 Is there much point me checking in somewhere like Tesco for this? Probably not, I checked in about 3 different Tesco, Asda and Co-op where I live, and not one had it. I ended up finding the last copy in WHSmith's.

RedArrow Posted June 2, 2010 Share Posted June 2, 2010 WHSmiths in Stirling has plenty left. I had no idea about it but just happened to be in there for at the Post Office upstairs and I noticed it when I was having a look for NME. So happy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pluginbelfast Posted June 3, 2010 Share Posted June 3, 2010 I have an extra copy. I offered it on the oldies thread but they are all sorted. Send me a PM if you'd like it .

the_invincible_dude Posted June 3, 2010 Share Posted June 3, 2010 WHSmith in Plymouth had none whatsoever when I asked in there (yeah the person I asked didn't even know who Muse were anyway. ) ...but then there were loads of copies in HMV...
