I managed to order 2 of the USB's when the TeamAyu sale began at 6.

freedreamer 23rd February 2009 02:28 PM

mehhh and i was thinking HER SALES ARE SOOOO GONNA BOOST...guess not a lot

LacusClyne 23rd February 2009 04:29 PM

hmm...got a bad news for those who are hoping for a OS version, someone at AyuChina had asked Avex taiwan about it, and they said they are not able to manufacture the USB as it's a collectable item in Japan only, meaning: coprights problems.

pUrpLeSn0w 23rd February 2009 05:21 PM

oh shucks~ why didn't they make more~ *SOB*

Baernash 23rd February 2009 05:47 PM

I have other BAD NEWS, I got answer from PlayAsia:

Quote:

How did you get 2? They were limited to one per TeamAyu member.

I managed to get one at around 7, after being "sold out" it was suddenly available again! Whew!

it only means that there might be a oversea version, but if your kinokuniya takes in the japan version, there is still a chance that they will sell there.

maaya 24th February 2009 03:29 PM

Max_ZZZ 26th February 2009 05:52 AM

i was getting ready to head off to ebay haha

and honestly im waiting till the OS versions to get the CD/CD+DVD w/e
and now that i have a USB im going to pick the one with the nicest cover YUH! ive always wanted to do that and disregard the content

~angel*ayumi~ 26th February 2009 07:44 AM

I ordered a USB yesterday morning at mu-mo and when I saw it at YA in the evening i ordered a second one^^ (so i can keep on save stored, and the other one i can use and carry it as necklace^^)
And I still have hope in teh yahoo auction I won, if I am lucky I will get the 1st press there^^

artaxia 26th February 2009 08:00 AM

I did too xD! I haven't really been into Ayu lately, then all of a sudden was like, "NEED USB NOW!"

pchan1986 26th February 2009 08:49 AM

im not sure if anyone posted this, but i too ordered the encore usb at YA. but later on when i went to cdjapan to look......they have the first press available again. in the description it said 'yellow case' so HOPEFULLY this means that theyve restocked it? i ordered it as well ^^ for those who missed it the first time, hurry and go to cdjapan

It doesnīt say that first press is available.
When you look into teh 2CD+DVD version there you can see the Limited Edition Button too, but there is also a 1st press available button that says special package, so I doubt it will be 1st press.

pchan1986 26th February 2009 09:01 AM

i just realized that too ....o fudge lol

~angel*ayumi~ 26th February 2009 09:02 AM

I wrote an e-mail to CDJapan and asked them if it is yellow or clear case.
I also e-mailed play-asia and asked them if theirs whould be encore or 1st press^^
So thatīs what they call mu-mo exclusive lol XD

freedreamer 26th February 2009 09:26 AM

i got it. from YesAsia...lol

~angel*ayumi~ 26th February 2009 10:44 AM

CD Japan changed the discription now to clear case after I e-mailed them.
I also got this e-mail back:

Quote:

Hi Stefanie

We have re-stocked the USB and this is the second group of stock so the case will come in clear.

Please contact us if you have any other questions.

Sincerely,
Mana Miyamoto

I've got a reply from them and they said, that it's gonna be First Press! I've ordered it a few hours ago with 2CD+DVD version. I was also wondering about FP, emailed them and Mana Miyamoto stated that it's gonna be FP. I will ask her once again when it will be on hand. I do not want Usual Version for $62.00.

Now it's not clear to me at all.

~angel*ayumi~ 26th February 2009 11:53 AM

That is super confusing now o.o

crea_spain 26th February 2009 12:10 PM

Aww I also wanna order USB version (FP limited edition ~yellow case)
where should to buy it? @_@

Huh? Yellow??? O___o She said it's PINK! It's SUPER MEGA CONFUSING now! Maybe they do not know/sure? Or I just ordered it earlier than you? I've made my order at around 10:30-11:00 (my GMT is +02:00).

~angel*ayumi~ 26th February 2009 12:26 PM

The usb case is yellow.
The 2CD+DVd case is pink.
Maybe she misunderstood you, I think she was referring to the 2CD+DVd edition wehn you ask her, because this version they still have 1st press available.

I know. Probably... And this is really annoying! I asked her to cancel my order if there 100% won't be FP. I do not need it if it's not FP.

ayuzlove 26th February 2009 01:13 PM

woo hoo! juz ordered my usb from cdjapan! :D

Material Boy 26th February 2009 02:12 PM

I've just preordered one at Yesasia! I'm so so happy!

aura~ 26th February 2009 06:17 PM

it's just a case!!! thinking in how imposible seemed to get simply the USB i'm happy even if don't have the transparent case XDD I got it really fast no matter what!

jbrat2219 26th February 2009 07:04 PM

Why is the color of the case that big of a deal? Mine will probably sit on a shelf and collect dust xD;...

dreamland2.0 26th February 2009 08:06 PM

haha I ordered it from CD Japan!! However I ordered it with Nana Mizuki s new album which comes out in May!! ahaha a long wait but I got the 2CD+DVD version anyways :)
it better be worth the money!! haha

pchan1986 26th February 2009 09:03 PM

thank u ayumi*angel for asking cdjapan. unfortunately i had to cancel that order because i had ordered it from YA already...im on the hunt for the first press yet again TOT

~angel*ayumi~ 26th February 2009 09:05 PM

Well best whould be to wait till release and buy it off Yahoo auctions I guess.
I will do that too if my pre-order at yahoo gets cancled or is encore press.

ALfromHELLSING 26th February 2009 10:06 PM

^So I'm not the only one who ANTS First Press. :D
Yeah, now only Yahoo will help us with First Press. ^_~

dreamland2.0 26th February 2009 10:10 PM

I'm a bit confused on what the first press is and what's the second press!!??? :)

pchan1986 26th February 2009 10:28 PM

right now im trying to figure out how to use the japamart for the yahoo japan auction....its so confusing!!@_@ im use to ebay. who else is hunting the usb as much as me?? lol

~angel*ayumi~ 26th February 2009 10:33 PM

atm i am satisfied with the encore press.
When my Pre-order at yahoo donīt get the 1st press... then I will start hunting again on release day^^

~Amy~ 27th February 2009 03:09 AM

I pre-ordered it! Finally... lol ^_^ I'd rather have a transperant case rather than yellow so I got the encore edition of the USB drive. o.o

jbrat2219 27th February 2009 03:25 AM

The only way I'll be upset with the encore press is if the cover is worse than the first press and I don't see why they would be different so...

The First Press of the USB version will have a yellow color case. And the "Encore Press" edition will have a transparent case. That's all. lol
The only reason why its different is because the First Press USB version was only suppose to be for a very limited time and it sold out instantly. But due to the high demand, Avex decided to released more copies of the USB version and titled it "Encore Press", which is what is being sold now. So the only people that got the First Press are the people that ordered it right when it was announced.
But in the end, the only visual difference is the case. One is yellow, the other is transparent.
I bought the Encore press verison today, and so glad I did!

You're lucky if you have either version of the USB, they are both for limited time.And they are both rare collectibles! ^_^

pUrpLeSn0w 28th February 2009 10:40 AM

wahaha i'd lurrrvvvveee it even MORE if the case is purple coz *ahem* it's my fav colour hehe..but nonetheless..im really excited!!!

i ordered mine a few days ago at YA..my fren sent me the link when she had nothing to do & found it for me..im sooooo ubber happy!!! :D:D:D

tinka69 28th February 2009 11:50 AM

Jwiz 1st March 2009 08:26 AM

Handjan 22nd April 2009 04:14 PM

I have just visited CDJapan and USB version is AVAILABLE!!!!! Again!
I don't know how many copies they have, maybe less them 5-10.
So if you missed it - you have a chance!

jbrat2219 26th April 2009 03:51 AM
