I already e-mailed them this morning but still they didn't reply maybe because they're just busy or something. I don't have plans to ask for a refund; it will be a last option.. All i want is the CD...:(
The last thing that I should do is to go to the post office and personally inquire about my parcel, and I'm hoping that somewhere, in the four corners of their walls, is my parcel, waiting for me to fetch it.:(

a tracking no. will be issued only if you requested EMS or Registered Air Mail

I hope that your item can arrive in your house sooner or later

cdjapan's Air Mail says that it may take up to 8 weeks :/ If the 8 weeks have passed contact them, they sent me a bonus item that didn't came with the CD for free and very fast.

I've never tried YesAsia :( I'd like to, but you can't know the total price of the package when it arrives to your country

I think delivery always depends on the circumstances.
For example all orders over 22€ from CDJ will automaticly take longer in my country because it will be sure catched by the due office and i will have to pick it up there.
I still prefer YA because they have free shipping and tax free guarantee.
And the fastest from Ya was on the release date, itb was Blue Bird CDs, the posters even arrived before release date.
Fastest from CD Japan was 5 days after release, because even if it is under the 22€ the dues office will look inside to get sure <.<

days wise excluding public holidays in the mix :

CDJapan - 4-5 days & I chose normal airmail

YesAsia - 5 days onwards . Worst was less than 2 weeks

HMV Japan - 3 days & they only have EMS . I stopped using HMV Japan because my items forever wouldn't get delivered up to my house for some weird reasons :dead2

HMV HK - 5 days

Well whether you do Yesasia or CDJapan, just try to remember to click their websites through our forum links! Our forums benefit from the sales and that means funds for website maintenance :yes

I went to the post office and it has not still arrived:(.

CdJapan e-mailed me and they said that if I prefer, they would like to send a second package that is free of charge. But I'm doubtful that it will just end up like the first one. What should I do? Should I ask for a second package or give it some more time? Please I need advice...

if you can wait a bit more longer then wait until your 1st package to come since CDJapan stated that it will take up to 8 weeks for your items to come if you choose normal airmail

if not , then I suggest you take up CDJapan's offer & ask them to redeliver it to you

My TRICK appearntly won't ship till next week or something D8 darn

and to rusuke take that free-of-charge order. It won't hurt ya to try it

that goes for KinKi Kids's Yakusoku singles because I guess it will take sometime for the stock from Japan to arrive at the YesAsia's office :yes

:yes go for it :thumbsup

ooo YesAsia thingy says that TRICK is "Ready and in stock" so yay XDDD I'm getting too anxious now :B

haha that's good for you

for me I wait for Warner S'pore to produce the CD + 2DVDs locally . I did thought of getting the Taiwan press but it will be out on 13th Feb ie. eve of Valentine's Day :dead2

maybe by then , the S'pore press for it will be out . If not maybe even earlier

Rusuke, I really suggest, if it takes longer, you should ask for a REFUND or replace the order once again.

Yah.. We already made a deal. I'll wait for another 10 days and if it doesn't arrive, they will send the second package. I feel sorry for CDJ because they had a problem like this.. I really don't what was happened with my parcel... Maybe it was lost. I hope it's not.

Thinking about this makes me realize that Ayu makes me happy yet she makes me sad...

i only used CDJ and i plan sticking to it when it comes to albums and singles.
i'm currentlly thinking of using HMV to get her tour DVD's and old albums, since they're way cheeper^^

both Days/GREEN and A COMPLETE i pre-ordered were shipped a few days before the release date
and got to me really fast.
for AC i used EMS (it was my first buy ever) came to me in 4days.
and for Days/GREEN i used Reg. Air Mail and it came in 8 days (on the 23rd)
but when i ordered GUILTY (in October 2008, 2months before Days/GREEN) with R.A.M. it took 4 days i was really suprised!!!! xD

somehow YesAsia never got my attention since i don't have free shipping from them :P

@rusuke, you did the right thing^^
if it doesn't come after the 10th day, they should re-send it to you. tha's the only fair thing since you paid for it^^





@KarenPang:
can you explain a bit more the trouble you had with HMV japan please?? because i was planing on using them for her old albums and live DVDs.

I'm sorry to hear you still haven't received your copy yet rusuke.
I remember you asking me about it in another thread, just before Christmas
and I can't believe you haven't got it yet.. but I still do hope you'll get it soon.

yesasia is actually having free shipping rite now

see below on what Genie said ...

yes it's just suai on my part & also among the reasons I gotten when I called SingPost was that

1) the intercom downstairs of my house's spoilt (since I'm living in a Condo & for the record the intercom doesn't spoilt all the time)
2) the delivery truck broke down :dead2
3) the postman's lazy T_T . Initally I didn't state the building that I'm living in but with or without the building's name , my orders still refuse to come to me
4) my dad's usually at home in the morning so there's no excuse as to why my stuff doesn't come even if I'm or if I'm not at home . If he go to the bank or do some errands in the morning then it's a different issue

It was fine initally when I used HMV Japan but after a while , my orders refused to come up to my house iterally & it's like 3-4 orders straight in a row

it was so frustating that I had to collect every package at the nearest SingPost outlet T_T

since then I switched to either HMV HK , YesAsia or I ask my friend Cliff to mail out OS presses of some items to me that can't be found in S'pore

I only use CDJapan as the last resort as their charges are not cheap but yet they're real professional
