A COMPLETE ~ALL SINGLES~ present campaign
 

Yet again, like with GUILTY, A BEST 2, RAINBOW, A BALLADS, and other releases.. Ayu is having another present campaign via a lottery [i.e you pick a thing from a box, and whatever letter is on that thing, you get that prize.]

These are the different gifts that someone who orders [presumably in Japan and from online shops as well.] can get:
To translate:
A GIFT: Original jigsaw puzzle
B GIFT: Original mirror
C GIFT: Original mini-towel
D GIFT: All 43 covers COMPLETE magnet (one out of 43 different magnets)
E GIFT: Original oversized poster
F GIFT: 10th Anniversary 『Ａ』 sticker

The puzzle seems interesting.

Original Oversized Poster?

Sounds AWESOME

I must add that those of you who purchase ASAP might be more likely to win something.

Last year, GUILTY purchasers who were the first to preorder ended up getting presents.

Pre-ordering from JUST Japan or what? If it's not known fully yet, just say so ^^;;

Oh I hope so. I preordered like 30mins after the news broke on CDJapan.

It'd be nice to get something

so it's like with GUILTY? even on yesasia & cdjapan ?

The prizes are so interesting (*-*)
OMG I just hope I will win like with GUILTY!!!!

oh god this gives me more pressure to pre-order early :weep I would want the Original mini-towel or puzzel :O

Some of the stuff seems kinda cool! I'd love to pre-order!!!

It's not known fully, but people always ask this.. like "OMG DO WE GET IT IF WE USE CDJAPAN OR SOMETHING OR LIKE YESASIA!?@?!@!"

For the most part, these things apply to preorders from most Japanese retailers I believe..

CDJapan should put up a page soon if they're going to participate.

I'd like to win something, maybe the poster or mirror, would be nice. I didn't win anything with GUILTY though, might keep my expectations low.

Well, only so many orders got prizes for GUILTY. [less than 10 people on AHS got presents?]

But a lot of people who ordered as soon as news broke got presents, so... it's highly likely that if you already ordered, you might get something.

ok :yes
I guess that if CDJAPAN is doing the lottery
there are some chances that yesasia does it too

we'll see!

i want a prize so bad!!! i hope that i will also win!!! i got an a rhinestone sticker with GUILTY :) i love it, and i want one of these awesome 10th anniversary prizes!!!! :D :D :D

Yeah, I wanted to avoid trying to sound like that so I hope I didn't ^^;; I was only curious if it was known at all, thanks for the answer, I'll keep my eye on CDJapan for info then~

Well, it's been done for A BEST 2 and GUILTY, so it seems like this one will be the same..

Unless they decide to change it for some reason.

The puzzle sounds interesting, I wonder what the image would be... XD Thanks for the news. :)

I remember it happening with GUILTY, yeah, people on YesAsia knew whether they'd won or not because there was an extra item in their shipment when they checked on the status... Hope it happens this time for them; I ordered it yesterday.

The puzzle will probably be the cover image.. same goes for the oversized poster.

Though I HOPE Ayu is on the cover. Please do something similar to what I outlined here, Ayu!

Did YesAsia participate in the GUILTY lottery?

^ Yep, they did but not only with the lottery prizes from GUILTY but from A BEST 2 as well.

coupons on cd japan anyone? ~_~ gahh i really wanna order this

Awesome tyty :D

Does anyone remember if hmv offered the lottery for GUILTY or A Best 2?

The magnet thingy sounds really appealing

Cool.

if you're in HK and buy from HK records ... I believe you can play the same game because i did when i bought A Best 2 B&W from them

I want a prize.
Lord knows I deserve it .

The whole poster thingy sound awesome.But I would be happy with any price.Even if is a cheap pencil with ayu's pictures in it or something.lol

ah~~ I hope to win a present since I preordered so early

the magnets are one out of 43 kinds... so you'll get a random cover essentially, not one with all of them.

I want poster~!!

is CDJapan participating on this?

i'd want c or e :)

I want the oversized poster :D

Should be one out of 43 different magnets i guess. 43 covers on 1 magnet is pretty insane XD

The jigsaw puzzle is so cool! Man I wish I have the money ot pre order from CDJapan.

Well, if you look at the name of it, it's "ALL COMPLETE 43 SINGLES MAGNET".. so it leads me to believe it's just a collage of all 43..

It good be a good sized magnet. "Magnet" doesn't always mean a little tiny thing, it could be a few inches long, a few inches wide.

yesterday i just pre-ordered mine from Yesasia~
am i going to get one of the prices??

from all those prices..
i wantttttt either of these threee!!! pleaseeeee!!!

A GIFT: Original jigsaw puzzle

D GIFT: All 43 covers COMPLETE magnet (all 43 covers on 1 magnet, I think or one out of 43 different magnets... not sure)

E GIFT: Original oversized poster

So glad I pre-ordered right away, then! I hope I get something D:

Oh wow that would be amazing :luv2 I know they said a 48 page booklet of unreleased single covers but still, if they released that as the booklet :love or even a separate photobook I'd buy it. I'd buy two :yes

Shouldn't of put that image in my head, now I'm wanting it ! Ah well maybe I'll win something in the campaign. For A BEST 2 I won the rhinestone sticker, maybe this time I'll win something bigger or just settle for the sticker again lol for the Guilty CD + DVD I got nothing :eviltongu

I preordered before the campaign! If CDJapan is involved, would i still be able to participate?

Yes, this is exactly what happened with GUILTY. They said it was fine.. but I'm sure you'll have to wait for further news.

Oh, and the magnets thing is like there's one of 43 you can get [I wonder if there's only 43 magnets per promotional box..]

i hope HMV Japan will also participate!! I'm ordering it tomorrow from there!

i wonder if overseas people can participate.

I want the jigsaw and the poster. X3

coool...

AHH.
can we get the lottery if I preorder from YA or HMV??

Great, I can't pre-order it until 5th August++ t.t

They're all kinda great. And some are totally useless as well, which makes it all the more better.

good question-
'cause if it was 2 sets of 43 magnets per promotion box
and you can win only 1...that would mean 86 people would get one
which is maybe a lot considering there are other prizes :shrug

at least it's not 1 magnet with all covers XD 'cause that magnet would be pretyt big if the size of the covers were decent :laugh

if i will get present, it will be poster.....
.... folded by HMV(((

i would like a magnet, it sounds interesting. but i'm not ordering it...

AWESOME, COOL, sweet Ayu, you're the ONE ...

Yesterday I preordered it from CD Japan, hopefully they can be able to participate in the lottery, I would love to get E GIFT: Original oversized poster :D although the most important to me will be get the 3CD+DVD+48-page booklet -First Press limited edition- :luv2

I would like Gifts C, D and F. But i don't suppose they come with the OS version :no Thanks for the news. By the way, why am I a POWDER SNOW Initiate?

I have pre-ordered 1 week ago , do i have a chance to win ?
Even though i'm totally luckyless é_è !!

^ im not lucky either :( i never ever win contests and such based on luck. haha. but i still have high hopes :D

I pre-ordered around 8-9 hours after it was for pre-order, I hope I'll get something =P though most chances that I won't.

On the good note, if there is an oversized poster it means that ayu will surely be on the cover :D

Awww i never win these random lottery stuff !

BUT great news nonetheless.

Love all the gifts ^0^

does anyone know if there's online shop that sell ayu's original cds that can be paid through Moneybookers ??

10x for the info :)

Wow, that is cool :yes

will yesasia join this campaign?
since i have pre-ordered mine from yesasia~

They were for guilty so i guess they will again this time =)

Actually everyone should pre-order from CDJapan and YesAsia and then cancel one of the two if they dont win anything...

Only Yesasia informs you that you won, and that's when its in shipping process. So you can't really cancel it then.

CDJapan simply doesn't really tell you anything and you have to wait until you get the package.

Wow cool. Thx for the info. ^^

can i pay my purchase on CDJapan through moneybookers??

I pre-ordered mine yesterday. I hope I get something :D

MY FRIDGE NEEDS THOSE MAGNET SOOOO MUCH !

If I get a magnet, it can go right next to my 1.20.09-BUSH'S LAST DAY- magnet~

Hahaha XD

Two very diffrent magnets indeed,

Ooh, so the puzzle is really, really rare. This will be interesting. I wonder how many people from AHS will win something, hehe. I preordered, so I'm just crossing my fingers and hoping that I get something :D

Ah, god why does everyone post stuff before I do. Bleh. Oh well, whatever. Anyway, this should be a good sign! I pre-ordered a few days ago so I should be able to get something (hopefully). I want the puzzle! Or the poster! Heck, even the towel would be good.

I hope I'm one of the 250 (wishful thinking)

The magnet or poster would be nice (:

Hmm, the Jigsaw Puzzle sounds fun but not too great...What I reaaaally want is the mirror or the magnet, because those can actually be used. *_* But if I do end up with something (which I wont) it will probably be the sticker. which is still awesome too :d

I'm stoked now. Just preordered.

I'm hoping to get any prize, really.

I want poster or magnet set...

They should be more generous with the prizes. Like maybe the lucky few will win the puzzle, towel etc. and everyone else gets a consolation magnet or sticker... But i guess this gives the winners a bigger kick.

The reason why they have to be so "stingy" is probably because avex only gives each company / store one box to sell..

So like, there might be 200 prizes inside each box, and that's all that they get to send out.

GUILTY prizes for reference in their box:

that's soooo COOL :luv2:

I would be really happy to win anything but if not hope someone from AHS can win any prize, I also preordered from CD Japan, fingers crossed... by the way, when will be the drawing? :cool

Aaah~ I hope I'm one of those peoples~ I pre-ordered like... as soon as A Complete was on CDJapan~ Though, I've never had good luck >.>... I just hope some people here win some things so they can take some pics and we can see what the stuff looks like!

I would like to get the oversized poster if anything but I will be happy with anything that will come if it will. XD

I really wish Avex weren't so stingy.
It makes people feel so down when they don't get won of the prizes.
I wish everyone got a little something.

^Precisely. At least a consolation sticker. If the japanese JIT system is worth all the hype it's getting in logistic textbooks, they should have prepared at least enough stickers for the 1st press releases. No. of prizes and consolation stickers sent to retailers = No. of copies ordered by the retailers.

But the fact that not everyone wins makes the prizes themselves much more special. If everyone got something, than what's the point of having a prize lottery? I mean, I agree that it's sad if you don't get anything, but that's part of the game~

It's a little like getting a tissue box when u try for a lucky draw (at least that's what they give u as consolation in singapore). Something small to make u feel better and try again next time =)
It won't stain the special-ness of getting say a mini-towel. I don't know, i never won anything big before in a draw...

My point, was that I don't think there should be a prize lottery.

I'll take anything =D Aside from her CDs I don't got much else of Ayu's :( Let's see, I've got 2 post cards that came with ayu-mi-x 6, 2 calendars, a few posters, I finally got a keychain =D it's the 10th Anniversary one, and I got the sticker that I won for A BEST 2 ^_^ I guess I do have a few things but I' want more ^O^

Well, if you purchase the items in Japan, you at least have a chance of getting SOMETHING. I mean, they have the lottery thing right there and you choose from a box to get a letter, and you get your prize right there. [until they run out]

However, they have to compromise online, since any number of people from like 10 to hundreds of people can buy the release.. I think it was a wise decision to say exactly how many winners there could be.

As for whether or not they should do the prize lottery.. eh. It's much like how mu-mo has the extras for only mu-mo or TeamAyu members. There's always some sort of special giveaway that someone misses out on, and this really isn't any different. It adds an element of fun to buying a CD, you know? Like "Wow, I might actually get something!".. but some people sorta take that too far and think they're 99% sure to get something and they end up disappointing themselves.

Though the argument that "ENOUGH stickers should be included with the limited press" is sorta.. meh, since there are hundreds of thousands of first press copies made, it just wouldn't make sense.

If anything comes I'll take it gladly since with GUILTY I didn't have had anything it would be great to cash in something now.:innocent

I just hope I'm one of the 250 winners to get a present :D

Do they send us a e-mail telling us if we won or do we find out when the items arrived? Is that a stupid question? lol ^_^

luna7996, did this help? :cool

yeah it helps.thanks!!!! ^_^ .

^

Actually, YesAsia adds a new item to the order if you won something. And by then you can still cancel it. At least that's how it went with GUILTY. You know when they do this because usually 5 people or so on the forum pop up with screenshots of that they won something/something got added. XD

Yes, they added the new item to the order when they start shipping out orders. You can't cancel an order once the order has entered the shipping process.

Like, basically, they let you know in the invoice that you have something else in the package by updating it before sending it out. Why do you think you'd be able to cancel it?

Like I would ever cancel it if I got a price.lol.Thanks for the help! ^_^
