[Koda Kumi] The 118th thread ~Eternity: Love & Songs~

[KarenPang]

I find it strange that I'm like the only one that prefers using HMV Japan by a long shot as I noticed buying things from them are much cheaper than CDJapan , with those fat discounts HMV Japan tend to give on a rather frequent basis

I feel that you pay more for the shipping fee if you buy from CDJapan & I seldom see CDJapan giving discounts for their online members too :O

[Minttulatte]

I loved both PVs <3 And I just realized I haven't watched Suki de PV yet DD Well, I have time to watch it later today.

[Lee^ChaN]

misono looks pretty in anata dake ga!!
and they really look alike...

prettyyyyyyyyyy~~~

[krauterol]

thanks for the vids!! ^^
I love the full concept but for me walk is the best one, so sweet and relaxing!

[KarenPang]

I really like the whole story plot surrounding all 3 PVs

simple & yet under-stated

I also like the various looks Kumi had too

see you don't need to complicate things where the songs are already stellar . You just need a straight to the point story plot to compliment things without beating the bush around

[ILoveGeniuses]

my copy of Sukidex3/ADG (& other item) was shipped last night while i was asleep.

[jbrat2219]

The back pictures are better than the covers!

[ILoveGeniuses]

OK, This Might Be Impossible To Believe, But CDJ FINALLY Has Kumi's Universe 2010 Tour DVD Posted For Preorder!!!

Kumi Koda Live Tour 2010 UNIVERSE DVD http://www.cdjapan.co.jp/detailview.html?KEY=RZBD-46682

Can't believe they took SO long with that....

Oh, and maybe this might be wrong thread, but are there any pictures out yet of what the Kumi 2011 Calendar will look like?

[milky_way]

^ Oh, man. I already pre-ordered it from HMV

[ILoveGeniuses]

^Yeah. By now, i think probably majority of us have preordered it from other places. I can't believe they've been SO slow with updating their site and information lately. Usually they're much quicker.

[koumori]

I bought Sukidex3 and L ... but I'm so hyped Kuu is doing well ~~ Sukidex3 is one of the best singles that I've heard for a while. ~

[milky_way]

^ I think I may just use the rest of my points on the new cover album and the just start buying from HMV

[KarenPang]

you said that you preorder the UNIVERSE DVD from HMV Japan huh ?

http://www.hmv.co.jp/en/product/detail/3895724

The DVD cost ¥5,250 but since you're an HMV Japan member , they will charge you ¥4,148 excluding shipping

but you know what's awesome (funny) ? they don't quote me ¥4,148 when I checked the DVD in my shopping cart

HMV Japan quoted me instead ￥3,950 8D & since I'm living in Asia , they charge me ￥900 Yen for the EMS shipping & the total's scarily less than what the DVD's worth

@_@

you live in US so EMS shipping for the DVD according to here is ￥1,200

100 Yen cheaper than what the DVD's worth but hey the price's inclusive EMS shipping so why not ? 8D

Well, one the JPN Yen to Canadian Dollar exchange rate is terrible lately for me. Been more so trying to buy from YA as the exchange rate between Canada and US Dollar is much better. Also, i never get customs from YA, and believe it or not, the mail's still been taking forever with orders from CDJ.

As for HMV Japan, I might use them if one, the exchange rate improves, and two, if I get a credit card someday.

I think HMV got a bad rep when someone said that they fold posters, and then went on to say that CDJapan always ships in the tubes or whatever.

So it was like, HMV got the rep for bad shipping procedures, CDJ got the rep for being more expensive, but your stuff was protected, and YA got the rep for, being worse than all of them, and sending out cracked CD cases and what not.

CDJapan is just ridiculously expensive for me if I'm buying older stuff. For that, YA is the way to go, since it'll get to me within a few days.

I haven't preordered anything in a really long time...but the next time I do, I'll look into HMV

yeah it's true Sabrina , HMV Japan fold posters but I have no problems with it since well if you buy a magazine that has a poster , it's folded isn't it ? haha

HMV Japan all year round have multiply campaigns & they usually give discounts to online members , especially to CD + DVD's of albums , singles

Like for Suki de x3 / Anata Dake ga , the cost price of the single is 1,890 Yen but I believe they will charge you 1,660 Yen when you checkout in your shopping cart ? :O

[freedreamer]

can someone post the PVs on mediafire?

[LacusClyne]

my cd was ship out too, i think i'll get it tomorrow!!!!
