my auntie bought it for my bday :D
lol it's nice i don't hv to spend my own money to buy a very expensive thing XD

i have a question about ayupans. how come the AT06 are worth more than the rest of the ayupans? and who keeps their ayupans in those plastic display cases. ive been wanting to do that but i gotta find it.

The AT06 Ayupans were the first Ayupans that come along with a DVD release and were sold out very soon. Ppl weren´t prepared that they were out of stock so soon.

wow i didnt know that:thud

I like all the ayupans starting from AT06 D: I only have a few favourites from before AT06

Being a collector is so money consuming :x

I try not to let that get in the way though lol. I just won 3 of "the other side" remix singles last night on ebay! They'll make a nice addition to my collection. I'll post pics in a few weeks once I get em.

omgosh u guys, they just told me to pay $360 to ship my items from my middleman T-T i emailed em and told them, thats insanely ridiculous to pay for items that are worth way cheaper. so i told them to change it to SAL, id rather wait 2 months than pay for that much!

^ waaat does SAL seriously take that song to reach you?? :tired i assume you are ordering from a middle man? it only takes around 2-3 weeks(usually 2) to reach me using SAL...:eek

I won on ebay brand new (miss)undestood both editions fp with photobook and A BALLADS FP - all discs are sealed!! Can't wait to get my package

i even have the feeling that there aren't even many sets of them to start with....seeing the comparision from her AT07 and AT08 ayupans, which can be found easily on auction sites.

well, shipping from japan aren't cheap to start with, and normally they would use EMS, it's safer. and they have really good packaging, so the items will be safe and sound.

which middleman are u using? and what did you bought? i assume you bought the musical box right? they will have to wrap extras layers to protect it, so that could be part of the reason why it's USD$360

i guess its my fault, my stuff included magazines too so i can see why but lesssoned learned. i use japamart as my middleman.

Even so.......no type of packaging and shipping should total up to $360. Seriously, for that much they better be flying from Japan and showing up at my doorstep with the package in their hands and a letter from Ayu thanking me for my purchase.

I love Ayu, but not enough to shell out $360 xD

^ I second that.

Well, I'm just looking at this: http://www.post.japanpost.jp/int/cha...ms_all_en.html

The shipping would have to be WAY less than what they quoted, right? According to this site, the package would be equal to a 29Kg package in terms of difficulty to ship if this were the case!

Can they send the mags separately to lower the cost? I wouldn't think it needs to be pack in much beyond cardboard and wrapped in plastic to prevent water damage! Maybe next time contact the eBay seller japan_ssdyuk (think that's the spelling) as he ships free on SAL shipping after you spend $USD100 in his store. He may be able to offer a middleman service for you?

yea im pretty upset that i had to use surface mail since thats so unsafe T-T i asked them to separate the package to make it cheaper for me but they stated they cant do that since its already packaged (cheap ...BUTTS) even surface cost $145. itll be my last time being with them. ima go to cresent shop now since most peeps use it here. the package did include 12+ mags but i seriously didnt think it would cost that much. shipping within japan for 12 magazines cost $12! *sighs* ima take a break from buying from YAJ unless ayumi releases stuff from mu-mo (gona use cresent tho)
-yea ive paid the shipping already for the items within JP.
-thank you kendelle ur so sweet, ill look into that seller. ^^
