ayu albums hard to find in Singapore cd stores
 

As the title suggests, is there any of her albums that you guys think are now totally unavailable even in our cd stores?? (eg: CD RAMA, MJ, SEMBAWANG..) From what i notice, It has to be her earlier remix albums (of course)and albums such as A Song for XX, LOVEppears, Duty etc etc..

I believe they still sell them, just that like you said, they are indeed hard to find for the older stuff. For sembawang I used to always go to their website and email them about which ayumi hamasaki items they still have available and they will list out everything including the outlets that have them :)

oh really?? wats the website url 4 sembawang?? thanks in advance ah Meat Pao!! :)

You enquire here : http://www.sembawangmusic.com/contact_us/

then they will reply to your email :) You're welcome! Glad to be of help.

CD Rama? they take forever to arrive...

Just order it online lol.

I still see A Song for XX at HMV city link.

you can buy them from people in the forum in the fansite section . make sure to check their feedback for safety . lots of people sell authentic here ( im part of them and i ship worldline) and i sure other people will be happy to send cd to singapour.

yeah, same here in Malaysia. Ah, CD Rama really suck that's truth... they take forever to arrive...

my younger sister & I have China presses of MY STORY & RAINBOW that we got from Sebawang & both were really dirt cheap

at that time when I started my ayumi/jpop music journey I wouldn't have known about such things at all

I remember buying LOVEppears, Memorial address, Duty from Yishuns' SEMBAWANG MUSIC a few years back, but, the quality seems to be just fine for me tho.. :yes

what do you mean quality is fine? i mean... it's all the same right?

^ no, there are different qualities, like OS press booklets printing aren't as good as the JP press

for A COMPLETE, the OS press had ayu's hair looking green~

You know what, the Chinese version of Ayu's Duty really sucks..... They changed the color of the cover of the CD... I hate that labor.:(

oh sorry, i should've elaborated further. yah i mean, the audio quality is as good as the original imo.. as for the cover, i cant say the same.. :no hehehehe especially Duty.. pink cd?? ugh!! :eviltongu

the original Duty, be it JPN or OS press has a golden tinge all over but the China press looks plain..

^ Yes!!! That's what I said before!!! I hate the Chinese version of Duty!!!! That should've done better on this!! And the case can even be broken so easily..http://www.ahsforum.com/forum/images...eviltongue.gifhttp://www.ahsforum.com/forum/images...eviltongue.gif

^ oh do you guys have a picture of it?

yeah that's what I was told but Taiwan presses are awesome in my books :luv2

Warner Music S'pore are stingy when comes to the quality of ayumi albums that're printed locally here (that's what I found out from some S'poreans here)

for me it's the way that they promote ayumi & let alone any avex artistes on here :grumpy
