In May 2021, a Memorial Day weekend sale was advertised in the nin.com store, with a note that some new old stock media items had been located and placed up for sale. While there were legitimate media items, two joke items were added and shown as being "sold out": a LaserDisc of "[[Closure]]", and a cassette single of "[[Reptile]]". The cassette was even touted as containing the long-fabled unreleased song "[[Just Do It]]". The LaserDisc was, in reality, available for pre-order in 1997 through Trimark, but was canceled.[https://store.nin.com/collections/music][https://www.theninhotline.com/features/news.nin.net/monthly_041998.html]

==''With Teeth'' "Tentative Sequence" CD upload==
In January 2020, a five-track ''[[With Teeth (halo)|With Teeth]]'' "Tentative Sequence" CD (marked as being from late 2004) was sold on eBay by Amoeba Records. Tracks claiming to be from the CD were posted to archive.org the same month and while the existence of such a CD was verified by [[Rob Sheridan]], the tracks were found to be elaborate fakes.[https://www.echoingthesound.org/community/threads/5831-With-Teeth-Tentative-Sequence]

[[Image:Bluesunday.jpg|thumb|Blue Sunday]]
A ''Watchmen'' joke merchandise item was added to [[nin.com]] just before the release of Volume 03, which was dirt from the crater mentioned in the series. The item was called "Blue Sunday" and it was priced at $195. When attempting to add the item to the shopping cart, a popup stated "Due to FDTA regulations this item is not available for transport to your region." Some people were able to actually place an order for the item and were refunded, but also received a fake letter in the mail and/or a fake voicemail message that led some to believe that an ARG was underway.[https://watchmen.fandom.com/wiki/Blue_Sunday]
