Exactly^^

At the end of the day both first press and encore press will still become out of print and remains as limited edition, why are you guys saying it's not exclusive anymore or something :shrug Not like everyone got a copy or something.

I preordered the second I saw the link. And I got just paid so thank god lol. I think one the main reasons I got it was because its so pretty.

I think ultimately it's up to the producers how many they will make. This is according to CDJapan.

well according to mu-mo, yesasia and cdjapan, this is a order-only item. you can only get it if you preorder it before the release date. they will only produce the quantity that was order. so you can't get it in online stores AFTER the release date, so it IS a limited edition.

^LOL yeah! ain't i glad i pre-ordered it the moment i saw it!?!?! OMG i can't contain the joy & seriously i was practically *ahem* bouncing around telling my colleagues abt it where i guess they might have thought i've gone out of my mind wahahahaha..

it's will only be released in early Aoril..so i should be getting latest by mid-Apr i hope :love:love:love

Quick question. I have been wondering about this encore version. I ordered it (encore version) from YA and they say that the expected ship out date will be March 27th. But isnt this going out in April or something? Or will they shipp this in March? I'm pretty confuced... :P

They are still RIDICULOUSLY expensive. omg. I can get one made exactly the same and pay less for it. 4GB usb are only like $12aus down at JB-hi fi. WTF PEOPLE.

You criticizing again. What a surprise. :rolleyes

Anyway, we pay it because we want it and because we can afford it, no one is forcing us to get the stick. It's expensive because it's a japanese product and the costs of making such USB's are really high compared to a cd. Making a USB with a cd content like the new Ayumi Album is a -relatively- new selling method, and not exactly profitable (that is why they are making the sticks in such small quantities)

And honestly i really doubt the one you can get on your own is going to be as cute or with the same content as the original.

I forgot to thank the topic creator for the notice. Thanks! :D

It's going to be hard to wait until the end of March and until my USB arrives. :P

They updated their page on the USB, it now lists the same info CDJ did about the April ship out and stuff. I'm sure they just didn't know that when they originally listed the item, not a big deal :3~

Aw, looks like I'm going to have to wait until someone sells one online for cheap :cry

slightly off topic, JB hifi isnt really always the cheapest place anymore...:rolleyes

Agreed, I saw Harvey Norman with 2Gb USBs for like $5 last week! They are the cute little ones that flip open :luv2 but I have about 3 USBs already not counting the Ayu one, so I left it and bought a 1TB drive for LANs :lech

SA doesn't really have a store that's cheaper than JB yet ^^; I heard one of the stores in VIC had I Am... for about $60+ but that was a while back!
