Has anyone ordered NEXT LEVEL (USB Version)?
 

Has anyone ordered NEXT LEVEL (USB Version)?
Since it is sold out on both CDJapan and YesAsia,
so I would like to ask could anyone manage to get one from them?
How much is it on YesAsia?

If you got one, where did you get it from?

I ordered 2 USB Version of NEXT LEVEL on CD JAPAN =)

I have seen it this morning and now they are sold out n____n
I have ordered the 2CD+DVD@ Yesasia =)

The USB is really really pretty but I prefer the 2CD+DVD version !

i got one:)

Wow youre lucky guys. How much did they took for the USB version?

It sold out just as I was about to preorder! *sob*

I'd thought about it and decided not to wait til next pay and then it was gone! =(

I wanted my boyfriend to order it but he was like "wait till i get home" (he is at his parents) I really hate him right now ><

i got a b-day on march 30th u know and its about that time so i was like i must order it cos im sure it wont be here anymore, but i didnt expect it wont be here phew hours later haha i preoreder with 2CD and DVD version and subtotal was around 13000yen i guess so ill have a nice bday :D

I sense somebody will have a very unpleasant Valentine's Day! :thud

you guys are REALLY lucky! They should seriously sell those as just plain USBs. No data in them just a blank USB thing. lol

he is not even at home on Valentine´s day...

Man, I was at work all arvo and came home to see all the USB versions all sold out. @#$%. :(

^ Luckyyyyy!

I really hope they restock the USBs; avex should know that they are making good money out of them! I should stop complaining and get on with life.

Great I was at school and had to stay one more hour~ thank you maths teacher =_=

I have a feeling CDJapan and YA will restock soon. It frequently happens that they restock after a while.

I'm gutted I didn't get the chance to order one :(

^ Me too :(

WHERE IS JUSTICE IN THIS WORLD!!!! *shot*

omg!! sold out already?? i didnt even have a chance to see it on yesasia or cdjapan!!

i didn't see the USB version at YESASIA..where's the link? can someone post the link for me?

I'm so heartbroken. :cry

I woke up a few hours ago, but AHS server was down so I hadn't known it was available.

I'll hold my breath and hope they restock... I'm sure they will though.

SOLD OUT

BAAAW that USB was soo cute! And was a limited edition, I'm a collector I need it for survive lol.

I hope it too ç_ç

actually its unfair that it is so limited but lets hope it will reflect in her sales though and that its gonna be athe album of the year :D

What? It's sold out! Either Avex didn't expect them to sell well due to the insane price (and thus provided less) or they're super limited edition O_O; My gosh, I go to sleep and wake up to sold out merchandise =P

I hope there will be an Overseas version for USB... but I dunno... this is the first time an album is being released on USB, lol.

WOW that's fast!! I didn't want one anyways because it was so expensive!! I hope the 2CD+DVD doesn't sell out that fast! I'm not sure If I should order it now??

I had order one from CDJAPAN this morning!!!

sorry >_< double post

^ Your second post can be deleted. ;)

that was so frikkin fast!! i had class!! i couldn` order (TT-TT

i hear ya guys on that! from one collector to another, gotta get.

I'm kinda worried though. When you check the details for the "Out of Print" status on CDJ:

Out of Print
The item is sold out already, and it is no longer in production. It won’t become available again for orders.

And if they were going to restock, why would they use "Out of Print" instead of "Currently Out of Stock"?

^
But it's weird there is no information on mu-mo or HMV Japan.

I really want it!!!!!
Why is it sold out?? T________T:(

i ordered it along with another version early this morn

It's all sold out on CDJapan right now. This is exactly what happened with DeG's ultra limited edition of their UROBOROS album. Give it a few days and they'll have stock again.

ugh I'm so pissed.

@Negi: I'l buy one off you for $100 ;)

I just called a provider and the guy that worked there (manager) has said that Avex usually releases only around 3000 of these kind of items because they arent able to mass produce an item like this~ and the other distributers in japan, who order them ,are usually the ones who get them~ So, if you order them from a site/distributer before they're sold out, your one lucky person, because usually, the information they give such as " no longer in print" is true about items like this. I wanted one too.............but i dont know how lucky ill be this time around..Y_Y

Ugh, I just saw that... I should have stayed up all night. :laugh

USB memory is nice but very very expensive O_O

So I get CD+DVD version :love:love:love

I ordered the 2cd+DVD edition. Wow I am surprise that the USB one went out so fast!

I'm sure that the USB one isn't "out of print." CDJ and YA probably don't know how many they were going to get, so, when they saw a flood of preorders, they made it unavailable. This is avex and ayumi hamasaki, they're going to make at least 100000, most likely many more. It's impossible that it's COMPLETELY AND TOTALLY gone more than a month before the release

I just ordered one from HMV....they didn't have the actual product page up yet...but if you go to this news page:

http://www.hmv.co.jp/news/article/902130110/

on the right you will see the 4 editions. They all say Nippon Ai ni Ikuyo: Thai Edition for some reason XD but if you add them in your cart, it'll say NEXT LEVEL.

Even though I placed the order, I don't know if I actually ordered it coz the actual product page is still the sold out page...I just gave it a try.

@GRACE Hmm....i was thinking that the manager was off with his info...~ Your information has given me hope about me getting one~ Thank you soo much~ *hug, while crying*

oh crap =.=;~ i wonder if they're re-stock :? T^T

edit:
actually, has it gone up at HMV yet??? XD >w> <w<
;)

I think I won't hesitate to get it now LOL~~

Its up on HMV:

Sold out on CD Japan. I was preparing to order it and then like magic it was gone ; ;

SO I settled on the 2CD + DVD Version :)

Already pre-ordered 2CD+DVD version yey for me. When I pre-ordered Tommy february6's best I didn't know there was a blu-spec+dvd combo (it was already out of print and I nearly died from an heart attack), so I pre-ordered the cd+dvd combo. BUT I went there every minute to check if a miracle was possible and 2 days after the blu-spec went on for pre-order again and I went for it so I just canceled the other one. So don't worry, just like everyone is saying, it will be available again, maybe for a short period of time so pay attention to it. Good luck.:P

IS IT REALLY SOLD OUT!??

God ! it didn't even have a chance to see the page on CDJ or YA!

btw, i just try to find the page on YA, but i didn't find one, can someone give me the actually NEXT LEVEL USB ver. page on YA?

and i wonder, is ayu the first ever artist on earth to release a studio album on a USB??

^apparently....there have been other attempts by other people? but...ayu is the first? (from what ive heard) And to see the page of the USB version on yesasia, search for ayumi hamasaki next level and allow the site to show you results including out of stock/out of print items

Edit: Here's the link to yesasias Next Level USB page
http://www.yesasia.com/global/next-l...0-en/info.html

^thx Dokiyo!

i just found an info about USB releasing on
http://www.tokyograph.com/news/id-4427

It's sold out on HMV?
I can't see words saying it is sold out on the page you provided.

I just ordered it from HMV ^.^

it was sold out over night, if not in an hour :roflmao
but it's really astonishing to see them sell an album on a USB drive!!!!!!!

it looks cool and all, but i never intended to get it.
i pre-ordered the CD+DVD ver. don't feel the need for the audio rip of PCDL :P

[size=1]BOOO I'M GONE FOR 2 DAYS AND I MISS THIS :weep\
I really want it sooo much!! I only saw the pic of USB, but it's so pretty!![/size\

In hmw usb version is sold out:thud:thud:thud:thud:thud:thud

^ yeah, its sad, if only i knew how to order from there, i wouldve gotten it~ LOL

Where is the album at yesasia? I see it on cdjapan but not yesasia...am i blind?

I tried to pre-order last night from both CDJ and YA but they weren't posted yet. Today at 1 p.m when I just came back from work, I went to CDJ and YA and SHOCKED to death that the USB version was already OUT OF PRINT.
I Cried... and cried... and cried....and cried..... and finally able to regain consciousness by 4 p.m. I am SO disappointed though..... I should take a day off today so, probably, I'd be able to pre-order it.
OMG... I wanna CRY again

^same...first time encountered something like this...very stressful...XD...even though I placed an order with HMV, I hope they won't cancel my order later.

Today has been such a roller coaster ride of emotions regarding this album XD

I'm not sure where I want to order from yet, CD Japan has lost their mind charging me $70 for the 2CD+DVD! YesAsia seems to be the cheapest.... But I think after March 4th I'll have more HMV points! ;_;..... I still have to wait a bit to make up my mind.

Wow, USB sold out so quickly! I kind of wanted to get one, but it's so expensive. I will just get the CD+DVD. ^^

if the usb version isn't going to be re-stocked then I'm going to buy Jacket B there really is no need for Jacket A for me ..... and I'm getting poor every second by ayu.... to many releases......

Finally, I have placed my order for the USB Version on HMV. :D

^how? HMV tells me its sold out.

That day will put on sale in mu-mo?¿?¿?¿

Congrats man :D:D

USB version sold out so fast !! :thud
I wanna buy it in Japan but I'll arrive there in April 1st so I guess also will be sold out :( that's unfair,,,,,, i really hope CDJ, YA or HMV can re-stock it soon ^^

aw man, i want a USB!
if she releases another USB next time, wont it be as pretty, and as costly!
i would get soo broke xD

Ayu leading the digital revolution with this huh? I can see why people would want to collect it so bad but it's really not the end of the world. Just wait a few days and see if CDJapan updates. I remember the exact thing happened with DeG's album and people managed to get their ultra limited copy. People are probably going to sell this for a lot of money on auction sites haha...

I came here a few hours ago to realize the usb was sold out, and words cannot describe how upset i am with yesasia and suppliers (a.k.a. Avex) Hopefully this smilies will express my feelings:


:wtf :wtf :wtf :wtf :wtf :wtf :wtf


I'm really hoping it is going to be a resell so i can finally get that gorgeous usb.

wow the USB version must be really popular. Do you think the USB sales will be counted towards the album sales since it's technically not a CD?

It's already been confirmed that Oricon will count those sales.

I'm so mad >.< I was asleep while the HMV ones sold out.

^ i just hope they release some more on the ACTUAL release date....even if the item IS a limited edition item~

I was asleep when they went on sale AND got sold out xD;

Early bird catches the worm I guess haha

do you think ,that it have stock left in Japan for sale when release date?

because i'll ask my friend in Japan to buy one for me

^ i really hope that is the case~ because im trying to get one too~ and my provider says that he will try to get me one, but wont know till 1-3 days before the release date~

haha yep, that's me xD
good eye ;)

anyways, this will boost her sales to the MAX!!!!!! maybe that's why they limmited the supplyes to make the fans more anxious so that they'd be sure to buy it when they "re-stock" the USB version. tactics, you know ;) :P :lech

wow it is already sold out on preorder?? that's amazing!

pls go to amazon.jp.. it just start to preorder.... quick!!

^Thanks for the info.
So anyone wants to order the USB version, go to amazon.co.jp as soon as possible.

http://www.amazon.co.jp/NEXT-LEVEL-U...4615642&sr=8-1

Thanks for letting us know. Preordered it in case CDJapan doesn't restock :D

i am trying to pre-order it through my middleman because i have no credit card and the shipping to my country is insane because i can only choose express mail <.<

Edit:
and it got sold out <.<


I am so sad and mad atm... if my boyfriend whould have let me used his paypal account earlier i whould have ordered it at CDJapan... i was never in my Life so mad at him like now... (not really because of the stick, more the way he has treat me the last few days, the stick is just the dot on the i)

Woah sold out already? This is crazy... and with Amazon what kind of shipping do you get? I'm curious since I never used them and the shipping was quite expensive.

P.S: I'm sorry about you having boyfriend troubles.. I have been through something similar a while ago so I hope things get better soon.

Amazon.co.jp said it's "Currently Unavailable", is it sold out again????????????

Yes... sold out in Amazon.jp also...................
OHOHOH............ all sold out in all websites...

what websites havent started to sell it.....?
mu-mo?

I am feeling mega depressed cuz I will feel uneasy all the time without ordering the USB...

Wow it's sold out EVERYWHERE.... This is seriously a hot item :O

I guess what might have happened is each merchant got a very limited allocated quantity of this super limited item.

well, i've pretty much given up. the only way i can keep from agonizing over this is to just give up for now and hope that maybe one will show up on ebay sometime. :(

They better restock...

is the USB thumbdrive able to store other documents other than the ayu's songs?

^ yes, of the 2gb that it can hold~ .8gb is already taken up~ the other 1.2 is for you to use any way you like~
