i think I've read from somewhere that the CD's are shipped to HK and Japanese stores around the same times , but japanese stores wait until the official release date to actually start selling whereas HK shops usually don't really need to.

another explanation I've heard is that as soon as cd's arrive to HK they're leaked to the bootleg-makers , and those bootlegs are out before the official release date.
