New album 'Love songs' & Ayu-produced single 'Dream ON' 12/22 [VIII]

[StarSUCKER]

Overseas version always gets posted a little later.

[Zeke.]

Ok yeah I saw it at play-asia though but I wanted to see if ordering with yesasia would give faster shipping? Play-asia standard shipping is 5-14 days it said. Which probably is the same with yesasia but they have free shipping usually.

[Ranma Matsuri]

^Yeah but to get "free" shipping with YA I think you have to spend $30+.

[Zeke.]

Oh yeah I guess I am used to always getting the Japan versions which always exceed that amount, lol. Well do you think it's faster shipping or the same?

[Ranma Matsuri]

lol I honestly wouldn't know from personal experience but from other people's opinions, it seems to vary. I would say to just go with standard to be safe.

I'd personally recommend to go on ebay and purchase it from a Taiwan seller though since you're tight on money. Their shipping prices are usually really cheap like $2-$3 or they offer it free and I usually get my packages within 7 days time. I can recommend a couple of good ones, if you're interested.

Well the album is 14.90 at play-asia with shipping of 3.90. If it's cheaper on ebay then yeah, it's not sketchy at all or risky for bootlegs?

no. read user comments, check their ratings that customers give them, and make sure their pages look like they know what they're talking about. everything in the tracklist is spelled correctly, and they're not like "ultra super rare album!" even if it's not.

[Ranma Matsuri]

^^Not if you buy from the right one. Do everything Picaflor says.

play asia's price is cheaper than the prices I've seen though. So just stick with them. XD

[Zeke.]

^ Well I'm trying not to see the covers/tracklist. I pretty much know the tracklist due to discussions but I don't wanna risk seeing the covers or something. But if someone can link me to specific sales it would be cool. I will open them in Firefox which I have set to not load images.

CDJapan puts it in shipping process on Friday. It is then shipped on Saturday. Reason why your order is not updated to being "shipped" during the weekend is because the staff at CDJapan don't work on weekends. That's why they only tell you it's shipped on Monday. Just what I've observed from using CDJapan these few years.

[Pieces_of_SEVEN]

^^and they don't charge you for a while after that. it's always like that with them.

Yup i know they dont work on weekends. ahha...it really added the shock factor when I just happened to finish using the com after surfing AHS..and then when I went downstairs, I saw the van outside my house and WOHEE, RnRC was in my hands haha.

Now, still...its "Not Yet Shipped"!!! *dies*

One thing about Play-Asia shipping: I've done some big purchases from Play-Asia in the past (consoles and games) without any problems. HOWEVER, a few years ago I ordered some overseas J-pop albums with the cheapest shipping (to the US), and the cases were completely destroyed in transit. If you order from Play-Asia, I would budget for the more expensive shipping options just to make sure the album gets to you in one piece.

[Keiichi_JPU]

I use CDJapan, and they should ship it today and update it Monday. However, I ship with FedEx, so shouldn't I get a tracking number through them the minute they ship it? Hmm.. mysterious. Maybe it'll take a bit longer because I ordered the limited edition. No idea why it would take longer but heh.

I'm just worried I won't get it before Christmas, because I'll go to London after Xmas and I want my USB before then

[Utena]

mmmh still not in shipping progress.. I guess I will receive it after Xmas sadly
