well,if you want free shipping,another option you can choose is Play-Asia (which you can click on my siggy there)...they are giving free shipping for most of their tiems(at least yes,for ayu's stuff) but its not counted in oricon T_T

Or worse....i have my order lost, after waiting for 3 weeks, then they told me to wait for a more week, if my order still did not arrive then they will resend it. in the end, i got my order 1 month and 3 weeks later.... hmm....i prefer CDJapan, even for regular airmail, i still get them in 1 week, or with EMS, i can get them ON the release date, or even BEFORE the release date. i got my NEXT LEVEL usb(first press) 1 or 2 day before release date! BUT, there's another GREAT option, HMV Japan!!!! -counts towards Oricon -fast shipping, they use standard register mail, reach you in 1 week and shipping not expensive, if you get 2 items, the shipping price is the same as shipping 1 item!!! -cheaper price, there are times that on the release date the price will drop and even if you preorder, they will charge u the cheaper price! (i save at least USD$8 on my Kuu's Black Cherry CD+2DVD, compare to YA and CDJapan) i would strongly recommend hmv japan if you are preordering any cds, unless you are like me, who wants the order in ASAP, then i will go with CdJapan's EMS(coz i want them on the release date or 1 day after) |

Some of the CDs I got from YA did come with broken CD cases, but the last time I ordered from CDJapan "a song is born"s case was totally smashed on the back so I didn't even open it yet :( Atm I have more than 7k points on CDJapan so I am stuck with them for a while xD |
I prefer YesAsia.
I never buy just one CD, so free shipping is always available for me. In general the prices are a bit higher, but it's just about 3€ difference we're talking about. There are few cases where YesAsia is much more expensive than CDJapan though, just compare. YesAsia has a much bigger offer. And if you don't care that much waiting a bit longer for your order to arrive, YesAsia is absolutely fine. I never get anything lost or broken. I use CDJapan only for rare items or when I order just one item. The points system is great, but it really only pays off when you order a lot. |

The worst experience I had with YesAsia was when I ordered both the CD only type A & B for BREAKERZ's 1st 2 singles ie. 4 singles of them I don't know how & why but only 3 of the correct title(s) came & the other one was Aoyama Thelma Feat SoulJa's Sobi ni Iru ne which was o_O on every single level in the end I sold that off away & ordered the correct title from HMV Japan up to now , I still wonder how YesAsia's able to mix up BREAKERZ with Aoyama Thelma of all people in my order :irked |
you didn't e-mailed them bout the mistakes they made?what item did they listed on the invoice?

it's a good thing that I listened to Aoyama's material if not ick |
i purchase once from yesasia.
i ordered ayu's YOU maxi single with ayu's sports towel and my friend cd...all are ready stock but maxi single is not.i waited around 5 days to let them search for the cd and i did e-mailed them 1 or 2 times in between but they didn't reply me...i begin to worry as the summer sales is going to end soon that time.thanks to lacus's advice,i finally cancelled that order and re-make my order without that maxi single.What i'm pissed off is they did not update me if they can find that YOU maxi single or not.and,one more thing is their box look cheap...very cheap this is how play-asia put all my stuffs into the box and send to me http://i83.photobucket.com/albums/j3...87/eco_box.jpg http://i83.photobucket.com/albums/j3...h_IMG_1718.jpg and this is how yesasia send the parcel to me http://i83.photobucket.com/albums/j3...9-09_08521.jpg http://i83.photobucket.com/albums/j3...09-09_0852.jpg http://i83.photobucket.com/albums/j3...09-09_0853.jpg |
^ wow look like sombody went thru your box before they mail it out to you lol. Anyway, I use Yesasia before never had any issues yet...I use them if I want to get new release cd. Anything old I use Playasia, they're pretty good too.
|
I prefer to use CDJapan, mainly because Yesasia sent my copy of This is the One with a broken case, actually thats an understatement, it was like completely demolished :thud
Also, for pre-orders I HIGHLY suggest you use CDJapan, with EMS my items come literally the day or even the day before the release date. Though it comes at a cost T_T |
Very interesting I must say.
Seems like yesasia's packing kinda sucks! |

yes and we who actually need food and a apartment to live dont have money for this. so I'd rather wait like that extra 1 - 3 weeks for a CHEAP HQ hong kong version to come to yesasia. |
^hmm...i get your point, cdjapan shipping does costs a lot, since you are on a tight budget, how about giving hmv hongkong a try? there's OS versions and prices CAN be CHEAPER then Yesasia...oh and reach you faster. :innocent

For me, the biggest con about CD Japan is the shipping! It's WAY too expensive. But I hear that various depending on where you live. With YA, I've never had any MAJOR problems (even got a free CD by accident from them once xD; ) but sometimes it takes a while for an item to arrive.
|
CDJapan's shipping costs are quite expensive but my packages arrived on the release date and were in perfect condition:yes
I have a question for the people who order from yseasia and live in Europe: I ordered for the first time from yesasia and yesterday they shipped out my stuff. 1) I would like to know how long it usually takes, a estimation would be enough for me:yes 2) Did anyone ever have to pay toll for your stuff? Yesasia says they'll pay it for me but I am not sure how. I live in Germany and here you have to pay toll if your stuff is over 22€. I ordered stuff for 50€ and I am really worried that I have to pay toll. |
