[ayumi hamasaki TROUBLE TOUR 2020 A(ロゴ) ～サイゴノトラブル～ FINAL」on sale 1/27/2021

What an amazing release. Looks fantastic!

[LOGMAN]

Against my better judgement, I decided to order this (I haven't actually watched this live yet). I'm a sucker for good packaging, not going to lie.

[kendelle]

That looks so good!

I'm really anxious about shipping via Surface because it's not insured. Is it really safe?

My only alternative is DHL which (I combined a few things that released over Christmas/New Year) is obnoxiously expensive. I bought a few things from the SPYxFAMILY and B1A4 Tower Records popups and have my CDL goods in a combined shipment.............cost to ship starts at $330 AUD.

I can ship twice the weight for like $150 AUD from Korea also with DHL.......why is it so expensive from Japan?? I braced myself for $200 but hot damn..... I guess it's staying there for a few more weeks lmao

It's not. I used it 2 times before and received packages both times, but that's not enough for statistics.

I don't want to use DHL, because it's crazy expensive. Once I had need to send documents to India. I called DHL, they said it will cost 12k. Dimex took 3k for the same speed.

Are you using Buyee? They are soooo expensive to use DHL!! But when I'm buying things for dirt cheap on mercari or Book Off I try to rationalize that it makes up for cost...

I'm still waiting for an OS press of this release to be announced, fingers crossed! (need to save some money since I spent so much on DHL shipping the past few months )

My husband wanted a bunch of stuff from the Eva store, so we have two packages trapped within Tenso's extortion prices!!! I'm so glad Ayu doesn't release like she did in her peak, I'd not be able to keep up with constant releases....just a few a year is plenty for this wallet!

I'm definitely going to skip the SAL option after the horror stories everyone has shared lol

I used Surface shipping once this year, from Italy. the package took 3 months to arrive and had heavy water damage that affected the items. I Order two music records, the vinyl was fine but the sleeves were all warped by water(buy I found the covers ugly so i didn't mind :p). I think, if you care about the esthetic of the release, don't use surface shipping.

[~angel*ayumi~]

you can actually insure surface, but I think tenso don´t offer it
Just like you can insure SAL up to 6000 Yen, but you have to pay extra. also tenso does not offer it.

I had 2 surface packages, one like 10 years ago and one last year, both arrived safe.

[kendelle]

Thanks for the responses, I think I'll have to just buckle up and pay the higher price ughhhhhhhhh

Maybe if I ever get a cheap CD bundle off YAJ or Mercari I'll use SAL to ship it but I would be way too anxious shipping new stuff via that method.

Maybe I should make a prayer to the postage gods that EMS will resume in February lol I'll never complain about EMS in the future xD

The rumour is the state of emergency will be extended until March, so unlikely. There seem to be not enough flights for air mail.

Yesterday i’ve got my Blu-ray and a DVD for a friend...
I love the packaging and I totally forgot about the photobook... sooo beautiful!
For the first time, I chose DHL Express (2283¥) over EMS for shipping and paid 39€ for customs & fees for a 125€ (BR+DVD+Shipping) Order. IMO 31% (or 36% without shipping) are a bit too heavy...

How could it be so cheap?
