Yes the price will go up because it doesn't include shipping. The shipping cost depends on which shipping method you want to choose. EMS being the most expensive, airmail and sal being cheaper but takes longer. They take paypal as well besides credit cards. If the first press is available when you order (it will say), you will receive the photobook and whatever extra stuff that is included. Only the dvd version have first press. The cd only version doesn't have it.

Cheapest deal right now is HMV, at under 6000yen with EMS.

Thanks for all the help everybody!!!!
^_^

ok its done now preordered! :)=

I just pre-ordered both versions too ;D!

ah!! i want it! will it come with a poster, cause i'll buy that for sure

Will this be available in an OS version?

Probably.

Though I hope that, as pointed out by a friend, avex asia handles the release [I think it was avex asia..] since avex taiwan SUCKS at making things nicely.

The covers haven't even come out yet.I dont get why they are buying both copies either.Maybe they just have a sudden "want and need" to shop on the internet.Happens to me once in a while too.lol

I'm sure they will, since I count on OS versions when I can, haha. XD

And...I don't know. I think there's a lot of incentive for the casual listener to get this. I mean, three discs of all her headlining songs from her singles (aka the ones a casual listener would be most familiar with) and plus it's ridiculously cheap compared to other box sets like this. I'd be surprised if it didn't sell rather well.

I think it might sell well, but definitely not the million.


[low expectations = SURPRISE?]

haha definitely =/. i dont think much will sell like the original A BEST unfortunately =///////

thanks for the links!!!

yes-asia doesnt work O=]!!!

OH GOD I WANT IT!

another greatest hits??

Btw is there any info about OS version yet??

I am gonna pre-order it during the next two weeks when I have the money. As for the sales, I am afraid how will this affect her future releases :( |

@Ryo - they usually don't announce the OS ver. so soon, I guess it will probably be released a week after the Japanese version, as they almost never go with simultanious release.

The fastest I have seen for an OS release coming from Warner was GUILTY . It hit the CD shops in S'pore a week after the official release date in Japan which was 1st Jan & the OS press of it was the CD + DVD edition .

Usually it takes about a month or so for Warner to put out OS presses of albums & don't get me started on concert DVDs , it really depends on luck & how fast/efficient Warner's .

Not sure when will the OS press of A COMPLETE will be out though

hmm BEST FICTION is releasing in japan 7/31, the OS in taiwan is releasing 8/1, so i would hope for A COMPLETE to be fast~ but the OS would have to print the chinese lyrics, so that might take a little more time

So YesAsia will also have the limited edition stuff this time? I think last time they didnt..or something.
