cdjapan or yesasia?
which is better for you? sorry if this was posted before I searched but I didn't find one poll about it
|
I liked YesAsia more!
I'm a customer since 2005 and i never get dissapointed or had bad experience with it! The shipping costs from CdJapan are really expensive! I use CdJapan's only if i get bonus extras like posters they're not ailable on YesAsia! It's good too, BUT i prefer YesAsia over CdJapan!! |
I only purchase from CDJapan if they have extras with first editions that I want or if it's Utada's material to add to her Oricon. Other than that I use YesAsia because they have better prices and by better I mean cheaper. CDJapan is just too high.
Both have good service though. I honestly don't know who to vote for. I'm going to have to think about this more. Hopefully I don't forget and never come back to this thread. |
I was always a Yesasia guy but I had some baad experiences and now im purely CDJapan unless Yesasia has something CDJ dont
|
YesAsia has free shipping (of course, they increase the prices a few bucks, but I don't want to pay over 40 for EMS shipping). I can wait a week, so saving a lot of money on shipping by just waiting is nice. YesAsia is my favorite c:
|
both are good but usually I order from yesasia :)
|
YesAsia. i've heard of stories about them, but honestly, i've never had a problem with them (using them since 2005). and i like all their little free toys. so cute. :P
|
CDJapan, yesasia's standart shipping cost to my country is really high so CDJapan's total prices for me are less than yesasia.
Also CDJapan's arrive faster even with strandart shipping. |
i use cdjapan. my order gets here much faster and i've never had problems with them. i still use yesasia to buy korean stuff, but the last two times i've ordered something it took at least a week and a half to get here, despite the fact that i paid for faster shipping on the first order :no
|
CDJapan delivers anything I order faster than Yesasia, that it (CDJapan) goes towards Oricon, and they tell you how many limited versions are in stock are the reasons I use CDJapan. If something on CDJ is too expensive, I use HMV. Gets to my house a little later but hey, it counts towards Oricon as well.
|
I've used both, but CDJ's shipping's a little too much for me, and YesAsia sells tour goods, and shipping's cheaper..
..I go with YesAsia. |
I haven't used CD Japan yet. Yesasia is cheaper.
|
YesAsia is better.
Free shipping, big offer and I had never bad experiences with it. On the contrary... a while ago I bought I am... from YesAsia and I get the first press version with long obi! I think it was early 2008. I love YesAsia for this. CDJapan is good as well and offer some advantages (counts for Oricon charts for example). But I prefer YesAsia. |
since cdjapan folled me with NEXT LEVEL I'll go with yesasia.
they are always so understanding - I tend to change my order like a milion times and yet they still want me as their customer ^^" and they have ov versions ^o^ |
CDjapan. Been a loyal customer since 2007~ their shipping is quite expensive for 700 yen for Air Mail for 1 CD but heck, the packaging is very secure and I've never had a CD cracked ever.
Before 2007, I've been using YesAsia and there were cases of cracked CDs. So yea, CDjapan for me <3 |
wow am surprised that YesAsia's leading
I vote for CDJapan . The shipping's quite high but my items get to me real fast , about 4-5 days by normal airmail which's fantastic In the Other category , that will be HMV HK & help that I sought from my Taiwanese & Japanese friends from time to time :laugh |
YA
|
YA, gotta love the free shipping :heart
OYEAH!! and they also have chinese and korean music/dvd etc~ so thats a big +! |
I use both. Generally, CDJ is for preordering first press stuff, and YA is for when I want to order in bulk
|
I use YesAsia. I've never tried CDJapan though.
I have had one bad experience with YesAsia, but it was with a Hong Kong press, so I just made sure after that I only buy Japan press. |
CD Japan - some items there have really lower price than on YA. For example Vivi Diary 36$ vs 57$ but they also are sold out faster.
|
I will only use CDJapan if a CD comes with a poster I really want. For everything else it's YA or HMV JP.
* oh I'm actually starting to use CDjapan sometimes instead of HMV jp cause I'm kinda banned from using my Dad's credit card...ugh I wish HMV offered paypal as a payment. |
yesasia for me...
|
yesasia
|
YESASIA, coz i NEVER had any bad experiences with YA.
And they have great offers too for OS press as i can't raelly buy Japan Press because they are costly to me. CDJapan has Japan Press at a reasonable price, BUT shipping Too Expensive. Would rather use the Shipping Charges to get another CD from YA and get Free Shipping |
yesasia definitely, much better options there...
|
yesasia
|
yesasia all the way
|
Its really hard for me. I think I like YesAsia a tiny bit more than CDJ. I think its the concert goods that won me over. XD
|
I picked third option, "other".
YesAsia is a bit slow with the "searching from suppliers" thing, and sometimes take them so long for them to get back to you to just to tell you that they can't find it. :/ CDJapan has really extremely high prices for shipping, so I don't think I am going to buy from them anytime soon. I choose other - HMV HK. They have really affordable prices, and their shipping times are good. ^^ |
CDJapan. it's important for my items to arrive in good condition, and yesasia doesn't do that. also, i heard yesasia folds posters. i'd rather pay more for shipping to have something arrive in perfect condition then go with free shipping and have the case cracked or a poster folded
|
YesAsia
I trust them |
YesAsia, why?
I find that YesAsia has a wider variety while CDJapan's is quite limited. I've never had a problem with YesAsia and their delivery came earlier than I expected when I ordered from them. Plus, I find that YesAsia's website makes it easier to search for music compared to CDJapan. |
Yesasia.
Their shipping is cheaper...and it always gets to me faster. |
I generally prefer CDJ but YA does get some cool stuff CDJ doesn't ;__;
I find that the shipping costs are pretty good as the AUD has a better standing against the JPY than UDS to AUD :lech It's sometimes cheaper to get from YA but only when the dollar crashes :( I like how CDJ guarantees FP where YA doesn't. I've never had issues with an order from CDJ but YA's cancelled items I wanted and generally ships slowed too =| CDJ totally gets my vote!! |

HMV Japan in this case , they do fold posters & stuff everything inside the big EMS envelope . I know because I used to order BREAKERZ's Angelic Smile / WINTER PARTY (Both CD only editions) & because the 1st press goodies was a poster for each edition (outta 4 different ones :thud) & a trading card , HMV Japan stuffed both posters inside the envelope so yup |
I've only ordered from YesAsia. I might one day try CDJapan
|
YesAsia!
I ordered from them around seven times now and was never disappointed (I hope, this will not change in the future ^.^'')! They're also very friendly and answer your questions quickly, if you send them a mail! My things also always arrived in VERY good condition! I'll maybe try CDJapan one day, but until now I'm very satisfied with YA, so I don't feel the need to do this!! |
CDJapan. They don't change their prices, they say if bonuses are included and they ship quickly.
YesAsia is inferior. |
YesAsia
CDJapan shipped fast, but I don't want to pay 10$ of CD and OVER9000$ of shippin' prices D: YesAsia has good prices and with few things I can have free shipping costs :yes (well.. mainly because of the €uro thing lol). Ok it take long time to arrived, but I'm patient :laugh |
All of them. I use who ever the cheapest, stock availibility and who offer the extra goodies.

It sucks, 'cause I just found this CD that I REALLY need from Amazon.co.jp, and like the song isn't available for download anywhere and it's really old and there's only one copy left and I'll never have a chance to get it again probably, and they want to charge me $22 for shipping for a CD that's freaking $11. >:[ |
CDJapan~~~~~~~~~~
YA aren't bad, but their shipping is much slower now, it used to reach me within 5 to 10 days, but it's now at least 8 to 3 weeks! I had gotten my kuu's Yume No Uta cd case crack, it was horrible, it can't hold the cd anymore! Before i open the cd, i can feel the CD clanging around! My friend had once got 2 missing orders, although they want to resend her the items, but they were already sold out, it's the AT08 ayupans and the NEXT LEVEL hairgums!!!!! She was super pissed off, coz when her NEXT LEVEL hairgums did not arrive in 2 weeks, she send them an email(they were still available back then!), but YA took 3 days to reply her mail and ask her to wait for 2 more weeks first, so she waited to find that her order didn't came and they aren't in stock anymore, when she demand YA to compensate her, all they told her was to use register mail in the future to prevent lost mail! but this won't happen if YA just resend her the items in the first place! anyway, my friend had lost hope in YA's, now i'm helping her to get from middleman through mumo instead. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- CDJapan shipping is expensive, but SUPER FAST! if it's a preorder item and using EMS, it normally reach me on the release date, safe and sound with supreme packaging. Even their regular shipping will reach me within 4 to 10 days with great packaging. As for first press items, they state the EXACT number of the remaining amount on the site when it's running low, so you will know whether you get the first press or not. Compare to YA, you either have to order super early to secure the first press or email them to ask. oh, and YA's email replies feel so robot like....you can ask anyone who have major problems or enquries about their order at YA, they should receive those 'standard replies'..... nowadays, i only use YA to get OS press of cd or anime or tour goodies, but i'm now a bit scared about my friend's experience, 2 lost mails of [sold-out] items!!!!! that sounds bad.... |

I choose YesAsia. |
^so which one did you vote for?????
|
CDJapan for me but their shipping can be really X____X for me to handle
if I want to order bulk items , I go with HMV Japan & ironically , CDJapan's airmail charges sometimes can be a lot more expensive than HMV Japan's EMS shipping charges o_O for OS presses , I go for HMV HK as they're great . If not I ask my Taiwanese friend Cliff to get certain Taiwan presses for me , it's usually 1st press stuff anyway |
Yesasia. Thanks to its free shipping and the fact that it actually sells goods.
After YA's free shipping offer is over, I'll move back to CDJapan because its got the cheaper prices. |
i always buy from Yesasia.
|
My first choice of buying CDs online is CDJ.
Because it has a fast shipping and reasonable fixed prices. And the points discount is a plus! The downside of it was the ridiculously expensive shipping! Why should I pay $10 shipping for just one CD only single worth $10 too. ">_> I always go there to see if the first press is available. Yesasia in other hand, I love the free shipping and the freebies. I love the toy capsules they give away and sometimes, they had this discount every month or something. I only use YA if CDJ ran out of first press I wanted. So, I'll go for CDJ since there are lots of stuffs that I found on CDJ that I didn't find in YA like the CD case cover. |

Yesasia because of free shipping and no custom fees. And it's really fast for me, too. A week from HK to Germany that's the usual time it takes.
|
i have to say CDjapan, but you can get chinese/korean albums from YesAsia so...
|
I guess CDJapan, since it counts towards Oricon, I would go that way...
|
^ Yesasia counts toward Oricon too now.
|
I prefer YesAsia, since I generally order in bulk, therefore I can take advantage of the free shipping. However, if I'm not eligible for free shipping, I'll go to CDJapan.
|
I want to say yesasia but idk. Half the time they don't have what I'm looking for. like shock -unmei cd/dvd. last time i checked, cdjapan had it in stock and yesasia didn't. and cd/dvd past/future. (again, last time i checked) cdjapan had it in stock AND first press, and yesasia didn't.
Yesasia has free shipping, but I realized every item is roughly 5 dollars more expensive than cd japan, so in the end it all works out the same for me. and alot of times yesasia doesn't have the cover art for their stuff while cd japan does and includes alot of information on the items as well. personally I'd say yesasia, but honestly I have to go with cdjapan. |

YesAsia does have stock for the CD + DVD of SHOCK -Unmei- - http://www.yesasia.com/global/shock-...0-en/info.html |
Quote:
anyways check out the differences. yesasia - 20 dollars free shipping. cdjapan - 16 dollars, shipping not included. i think for having the free shipping, yesasia makes up for it by making everything more expensive. I would say "3 cheers for coupons" but they only work on orders more than 3000 yen. lol so just throw in a random cd and use as many coupons as possible lol. |
YA coz of the free shipping :laugh
|
YesAsia because they sell tour goods, have free shipping and the prices are ok

it usually takes 2 weeks now since they directly send it to germany (before that it came through belgium) |
