on ebay Elaine & even if you were to ask your brother , I think it's impossible since the Taiwan press of A COMPLETE was released 2 days on Fri

^Haha oh is it? I'll stop beating myself over it then.

Oh the normal version definitely pales to the box set. Never mind, no need to buy on e-bay. Just wait for the local press. Sure box set one. Somemore it's the standard version so it'll never run out.

i find it slow, and i'm very dissapointed with the paper quality for (m)u lyrics booklet(compare to the japan version). And call me sensitive, but when i play the cd on my player, i did hear a difference between the local and the japan version.

Maybe they had change the sound quality to better one now, but i'm used to getting the safe and best way

jiarongisme · #**187** 22nd September 2008, 02:52 PM

^ Then why didn't you buy it when we were are HMV that time!? D:

prussian blue · #**188** 22nd September 2008, 03:45 PM

lol sg sell it SGD25 sthg right? (not too sure) if yes, then its RM62, while most of the CD sold in malaysia is about RM58~60. i can save a bit money

and do you know how frustrated that time when i bought your CD!?

*no offend to you and not blaming you. that was my fault for not telling her* so if i buy another CD after that, you'll know what happen

SolarAngel · #**189** 22nd September 2008, 03:55 PM

^Namie's BF is selling at music junction stores for only $18.90. You shouldn't buy those widely available CDs at HMV because the price is normally higher. Yeah i'm 100% confident in the box set. I'm just trying to get people to buy the local version to save money especially on shipping. I buy J-press for dir en grey and gackt and i'm not sure how to distinguish sound quality but somehow the music sounds more condensed if that makes sense. My overseas press of ayu's CDs sounds quite loud and blaring whereas the j-press ones sound muted but in a good way. Even though i play it quite loudly, dir en grey for example, it doesn't hurt my ear drums.

prussian blue · #**190** 22nd September 2008, 04:02 PM

^too bad, i always go to HMV all the time since they sell a lot of stuff. i need to take a look at the other shop, sounds really cheap!

SolarAngel · #**191** 22nd September 2008, 04:07 PM

If you only go around the town area, you can try sembawang at plaza singapura. Not sure about other sembawang, music junction or CD ramas in the area

I don't go there to buy CDs. But they definitely offer ayu, kuu, namie and hikki CDs at lower prices than HMV. Recently, it seems that some of the more popular Johnny bands and oddballs like leah dizon are also sold in these stores. You can go check it out. But if you're looking for something like mr. children or j-rock bands then HMV is still the place to go.

Jwiz · #**192** 22nd September 2008, 04:27 PM

BF is like everywhere in singapore, cus whenever i visit a music shop like cd-rama, sembawang or music junction, i will see BF...so prussian you should really buy it even though it's a lilll bit more expensive you've said.

Spend a abit more money = save ALOT of time looking for it in other country.

that's what I was told in that the Japan press are better in quality in terms of the paper & the sound

I can't tell the difference though maybe because the no. of OS presses that I have of my Jpop stuff outnumbers the no. of Japan presses that I have lol

BF in HMV costs SG$21.95 which is just $1 more than CD-Rama. So it's not that expensive.

prussian blue · #**196** 23rd September 2008, 08:08 AM

^lol i should buy it there

No but they imported the CD-only version from japan. It's selling for $64.95 in HMV so in a sense it's out

The casing for j-press CDs are very thick so it feels firmer, not so flimsy. My j-press MW feels heavier than OS presses of albums like My Story so possibly the casing is better. I'm really quite glad now that my MW came in the ordinary case considering how local stores are all selling the elongated version. I know it's a little sour grapes (because i didn't get j-press limited version in time) but i don't think many local fans have the fat case version

I have a question. How long will shipping take from Taiwan to Singapore? (Yes I know, Karen. I just can't wait.)
