bootlegs in china aren't as common as you guys seem to imagine. you won;t find any bootlegs in the proper high street chain stores. only in the dodgy small dvd shops and market stalls. so if you shop at xinhua shudian or something like that they are all original and good quality! I always buy a couple of copies when I'm over there, you get the chinese translation card thing as well (what's that called again?). They also have a lot of the "limited edition" there, (miss)understood with off my day and on my way are readily available. I snapped 'em up!

to be honest I was really impressed with the ayu collection they had on sale. every album, including limited editions, lots of singles, but as yet no concerts. but there's more every time i go to look, and the last time I went was over a year ago. and I'm talking about the shops in a very small town (by chinese standards, only 237 billion pop.)

and of course the price is aimed at chinese consumers, so its niiiiiice!!!!

I have a lot of interesting ayu boot legs form my time in china, before her real stuff was available. my discovery of ayu was through hunting for dodgy bootlegs which might have songs on that the others didn't lol! especially vcd! so I can watch some new pvs!

now I'm back in UK and have yes asia and internet....so much mor econvenient...bot not as much fun or exciting as goign "ayu hunting"

hehe..
