Sorry about your poster...I know exactly how you feel. That's exactly what happened to the first A COMPLETE poster I purchased online.

^no tracking code. I bought from cdjapan. I know its not cdjapan fault. They shipped my item on 19th Jan and from the custom released sign, it reached Malaysia on the 2nd week (which is still on January after CNY) after it had been shipped. So Im sure its PosMalaysia fault who never send me the item. Impossible for a parcel to take more than 1 month after it already pass the custom, its not like Im living in isolated mountain or island till it very hard to reach me. And how come my Rule/Sparkle which had been shipped around 20th Feb can reach the post office on 3rd week while my GREEN/Days need to take almost 2 months? Both I bought from the same shop and same shipping method.
Im sure its the post office who didnt do their job.

Sorry for my long words :P

my ayu collection:

^What is the last item in your collection? Its kinda blurry

For My Dear magnet won from A COMPLETE drawing...:D
I should edit my posts :P

^Oh thats really cool. I could tell that it had something to do with For My Dear from the dress and the beach setting but I couldnt really tell what the actual item was =P

yes, i know.
what a crappy phone camera :grumpy

beautiful collection =)

its voice of heart by alan in the first pictures ?

This finally arrived over a week after my copy of the single arrived. I was kind of not expecting it to arrive anymore, but was pleasantly surprised when I got home from work last night.

Just included Secret poster for size comparison... ^^;

I took the photo from a weird angle so it kind of looks crooked.

I want that magnet! XD
Oh and Duty is china version. HK version won't have stickers on it. (yeah I can actually see the stickers. XD)

finally pic of my collection :yes I don't know how to resize photos so they're under a spoiler xd also I've left some items out of my list >.<"

Went shopping today :)

so.....yeah:thud

yep true
hard for a 13 years old to collect so MANY of Ayu stuff :headache
but u can pre-order stuff online through ur parents rite?
I think there are alot of teenage fan of Ayu
I am one:yes 15-16 years old

Today arrived:

http://img3.imagebanana.com/img/xl8gz64/Bild009.jpg

Ayumi Hamasaki - A BEST 2 -WHITE- ~ CD + 2DVD Version
Ayumi Hamasaki - A BEST 2 -BLACK- ~ CD + 2DVD Version

Yeah, I'm actually surprized how easy it is to get my parent's permission :D In just one month, I have used ALL my money on Ayu items (And I have to say, I only started my collection with Rule/Sparkle, so it's only a month ago!), and thats like $300. AND I actually got permission to buy by Ebay xD

I ordered Rule/Sparkle and A BEST 2. Just a wakk after it arrived or something, I ordered NEXT LEVEL and GREEN/Days. Then, tommorrow I am going to order Arena Tour 2006 A ~(miss)understood~ and Deji Deji Nikki.Yes, I am sure it will be ordered tommorrow, as there is also some birthday presents (Secret CD only overseas version and 2 mangas). So I can update my list:

Upcomming from CD Japan
NEXT LEVEL 2CD+DVD first press edition
GREEN/Days CD+DVD Jacket C first press edition + poster

Upcomming from YesAsia
Deji Deji Nikki 100 Kai Kinen first press B4 size
Arena Tour 2006 A ~(miss)understood~

And Secret CD only overseas version, but it's for my cousin..

It is extremely hard!!! Well I started off with a copy of Utada's Exodus that I bought @ borders for $14. And then I got Utada's First Love and Deep River from my cousin, who threw them out when they moved to another district. But then, I really wanted to get Asia Tour 2008 from my dad, cause he was going to Taiwan for a week but OMGOSH! It sucked! In Taiwan, AT08 was released on Feb 18 and my dad got on the plane home on Feb 17...or something like that....I cant remember....the point is...I didnt get it but he asked my Taiwanese cousin to preorder it....and then he bought a bunch of random Ayu CD's like Days and Mirrorcle World and Guilty....and made me feel GUILTY! LOL! So now im too afraid to ask him to buy Next Level for me. x_x And Ive been buying stuff from AHS and having it shipped to my cousins house cause I'm so worried I'll get caught. x_x you have to be very creative. Plus I was able to do this using cash only.

I think I'm so strange.....
I starts with her Older Cds
then with spare $$ i buy the newer ones:dead2

Bought Memorial Address China press:rolleyes
BECAUSE........it was just for $3.75 SGD:tired
originally it was $12.90
then appears a crack at the back of cd case
so reduced to $7.50
then..they have moving out sale 1/2 price
derived until $3.75 then

Ayumi Hamasaki - Rule CD Only
Ayumi Hamasaki - Asia Tour 2008 ~10th Anniversary~ Live in TAIPEI
Ayumi Hamasaki - kanariya
Ayumi Hamasaki - ayu-mi-x III ~Acoutic orchestra version~

I'm not a fan of ayupans
anyway trading card is cool
there number in right corner right? it means exist more trading cards?
Never heard about it :no

I've new too
it's a full sets of "H" and "A" singles plus CLB and A BALLADS+A BEST (limited edition)

http://i70.photobucket.com/albums/i9..._photos/12.jpg

Yeah the number is 089! I've never heard about it before angel-ayumi offer me it =)

It´s just some random unofficial trading cards, I got several of them together with a pamphlet i bought ages ago.

@Taki: NICE!
Does your CLB have CDL 02-03??

bad that it's not official :bsigh
Yes. It's a 4 concerts box set (CDL 01-02, CDL 02-03, AT 02, ST 02)

@Taki
Yes but they are nice to look at^^
They were also just a add-on to the pamphlet i bought.

a lot of patience indeed.
a bit of luck too, I bought several "blind" batches. Sometimes I was very lucky,
some other not (like once when I paid almost 20 000 yen for a set of 20 posters,
only unofficial posters (and only 4 differents, with 5 of each)) :dead2
I had to buy batches with some posters that I already had.
And I Admit I have sometimes paid a crazy price for some of them.

About 20 of them are unofficial. ( I consider Kosé,tuka, etc.. as legit.) I don't count the doubles.

I used to be a collector addict. :innocent
I'll not pay 5000 yen for a poster anymore. :no
(exept a song for XX promo poster :P)

Yay they arrived! Though I didn't win a prize but I can live without them anyway

Ayumi Hamasaki - NEXT LEVEL (CD-only, JP Version)

http://g.imagehost.org/0167/nl.jpg

CDJapan shipped it on Monday and it arrived 20 minutes ago ^^

^ Wow that's so GREEN @_@

I have a questions...

LOVEppears has the OBI?

yes.

at first, I thought the colored case would be nice. But wow, they are really nasty, eww

^somehow agree with this, especially for green case. its just too green which kinda ruin abit of the cover which is supposed to look so colorful >.<

I preferred if they make the frame case colored while the front and the back or the case remain transparent :P
just my opinion :)

^ yeah i agree~ the colors just make it looks cheap >_>, limited....bah~ who needs it

I like the colored cases.....except for the yellow one....the green one looks really nice i think...but the OBI needs to go. It gets in the way of the....greeness @_@

Yeah I receive my 2CD+DVD copy today !
The case is too pinky but however ..

hehe i know it too me quite some time to collect all of those. i have 2 of some of the cds because in the beginning i use to open them and theyd get all scratched up, so i had to purchase them again. now i dont open them at all. or if course their like 4 versions or somethin..i try to get them all. i use the download section for my ayumi entertainment. thank you AYUMI SEKAI(uploaders)! ^^

i have one copy of a ballads but its hiding behind the next level box lol. i gotta get 4 of those too

heh, I've decided to keep this version and buy dvd or usb off yesasia... cdjapan returned my money, luckly. but I'm pissed at them anyway :irked
