This situation is ridiculous. I cannot fathom how much I despise those sort of people.

Either way, I felt like I missed the biggest opportunity of my life. >_<

I'd never pay $350 for it.... Though I would ask the seller a question "Why are you selling this when it was a PRIVILEDGE to meet her and get her autograph? Noone is going to buy it because everyone knows that Ayu didn't want to sign them and Stan was mad at you guys for asking"

I see :( That is sad :eviltongu stupid people.

Agree with everyone here. What a ****ing piece of ****. Like many others have said, it's a privilege to meet Ayu and you should be ****ing thankful you met her! If I had the autograph I'd thank Ayu a zillion times and keep it where it would never be damaged. I hope her staff don't see this becuase then the Western fans reputation might get ruined or they might not trust us or something. :(

Uh... what a price. If this signed Poster would be mine, I would never sell it. (°_°)

I find it interesting all the signed photos they have of people in that ebay shop are almost nude lol.

I saw this a few days ago and I think there is another but I don't know if it was from when she was in LA
http://cgi.ebay.com/AYUMI-HAMASAKI-A...#ht_899wt_1139

Hmm, I don't think it is, the majority of the time she was signing with a black or silver sharpie.

Weren't they the ones speaking Japanese? If so, that could kinda keep the overseas image intact, lol. :P

^ True, I forgot that. :tipsy Well now I that I think about it, the staff might not see it and even if they do they won't know who exactly it is.

That's a horrible forgery of her autograph... hahaha.

^Though I have never owned an autographed piece of Ayu's, I even think that that autograph doesn't look real. That looks to calm and practiced, while Ayu's is more "My siggy and presence is everywhere within the picture!" from what I've seen (I mean that it looks rushed yet precise in Ayu's case).

lol there was another one posted but I can't find it now..it may have ended. I don't have a actual autograph from Ayu but when I bought some ayu pans from her 2008 tour there were a ton of the ribbons that shoot up included and those have writing along with her signature so I see that as my autograph from her for now :yes

But I am proud to say I got to meet Kumi twice and get a autograph both times. So Ayu is one of the next people I would love to meet or see live one day.

Congrats! Was it when she was there for those comic book conventions in Texas?

Yeah I went to both. I'll have to post the autographs and stories in the kuu thread some time.

^ please please please do so soon, I would love to read them :D

^Ha ha, she came to TX the time before I knew her music and who she was. Darn! :P

i really hope not , sadly there is people that are desperate enough to pay any price . if they is people stupid enough to buy 55-65$ ayupan from ayumi showcase when they are not even rare and 35$ for a mag .... i have no doubt it will be sold within the new few months .... 350$ for a real sign might sadly find a buyer. on a funny side they dare to charge 9$ shipping at 350$ a sign i would expect free shipping. thats how bad they are ....

its just sad

lol, i paid $35 for a mag...and $130 for a bootleg that doesn't even work properly...i was a newbie that time...

$135 for a bootleg?!?!? of what?!

saw this today
