Oh yeah, forgot to post, my signed version was delivered..
....but not to me!
Edit:
So I had to go DRAG them...
"It's already bad enough that my address was messed up. It's already bad enough my album was shipped late. It's already BAD enough that it is DAYSSSSS past the album release and I STILL DO NOT HAVE MY ALBUM. Why does my tracking say my package was delivered but neither have I or my building seen any package? I'm literally through with this entire transaction. Like this is ridiculous."

That happened to me too. I emailed them, and I got this:
Dear Customer,
Thank you for your email relating to order 3*******.
I can advise that you order was shipped on the 17th April, and we ask that you allow 6-10 days for the delivery to arrive.
I'm afraid that due to a delay from the manufacturer the CD has been shipped with an unsigned booklet, but the signed version of this will be shipped out to you today.
Please accept our apologies for any inconvenience this may cause.
Now what, do I have to wait one more week until I get my album? It's ridiculous. I have the feeling my order got lost and they're not saying **** until I realize it's actually not getting here.

You should have ended the letter with...
This the new classic, signed sincerely LADY PATRA.
I wish Lorde wouldn't have done that Tumblr post because now she has upset people that work in the music journalism business. I mean, Lorde herself will probably be ok, but it makes Iggy seem like a bitch.

these publications are not monoliths. they are staffed and edited and written and produced by several human individuals, each possessing their own ideas and opinions. you might have met some of these people when they were writing an article about you but you probably did not meet all of them. in fact many of these people have never even met one another, let alone the decision makers who plan and negotiate the cover stories from the top of the publishing pyramid (and rarely to never write a ****ing word themselves).
suggesting that a magazine’s staff - let alone the freelancer who is not on the masthead but is increasingly responsible for producing this type of content in exchange for peanuts and pennies and open bar press passes - owes you a positive record review simply because you and your publicist were kind enough to grant their employers a mutually beneficial interview is tantamount to promoting corporate censorship in arts criticism. i would expect better thoughts about creativity from forward thinking young creatives like the one grimes and the other lorde.
(also that iggy azalea complex cover is from eight months ago - which means they set it up at least ten months ago - and the record review came out five days ago. is there a statute of limitations here or should a single cover shoot grant you an entire lifetime of fluffy pillow warm hug record reviews?)
^lol who cares, Iggy didn't need any journalists to get where she is today, they've always hated on her so she'll be fine I'm more focused on the fact that Lorde was stanning for Iggy and they've interacted
