YesAsia's jpop sales now counted towards Oricon :D
 

eh I don't know if this's considered ayumi related but I saw this earlier on at YesAsia's site - http://www.yesasia.com/us/en/japanese-music.html

you can ignore the ARASHI wordings (I know I wouldn't :laugh) but thought I let everyone know about it

so I guess in future , those peeps who have been buying Japan presses of ayumi's singles/albums/dvds can take that to heart now :)

Oh really? Thats really good news! ^^

THANK GOD!

oh! good!! ^^
thank-you for posting, next time i will contribuite to ayu's oricon =D

Wow, it's about bloody time.

whoa! but im sure that still applies to Japanese versions no?..either way, hopefully it could make a difference

Well its about time :) Yay for YA

Too bad I don't really buy JPN presses <3 I always buy mine Used on ebay c: But yay for people who support Ayu through YesAsia from now on

OMG so cool!

That's awesome news. I usually order through YA because I find it more convenient for me. Happy to finally be able to support my favorite artists by doing so now! :)

:clapclap

woo! yey! :vbhappy

that is awesome! I always use YesAsia... ^^

Yay, that means that the 15 copies that were bought from AHS members will now be added to official sales!

woo finally.

About time, yeah!

Good news, since so many overseas fans buy from there! ^_^ (I know I've never bought from YesAsia, specifically because it wouldn't count.)

wow that's cool, now people would buy from yesasia if they want it to count and not use cdjapan xD

LOL

I still stick to use CDJapan & HMV Japan if I were to buy Japan presses of stuff

YesAsia , I will only use it as a last resort due to numerous bad experiences I had with them in the past

to give them fair credit when it's due , their customer service's friendly & not haughty unlike HMV HK :innocent

Ahh thanks~
Finally!!

Finally it was about the time ^^'! Now my orders will count and help ayu yey *-* because I always buy in Yesasia too ^^

does that mean only sales from today begin to count or is the ENTIRE japan press purchases being sent to oricon?

me too i will stick with mumo due to bad experiance with yesasia.

it was about time they add it.....

Fianlly! I hope this will increase Sunrise/Sunset sales a little :)!!

Finally!

Ya I saw this earlier and was really surprised! I guess my copy of Duty that I just bought will count!! (not) :P

thats great news! yesasia is usually cheaper for me but i always took cdjapan because of oricon before

That are really great news^^

yay~~finally~~~

Thank God!!! :banana1
Now, S/S ~LiA~ has a chance to get rise on this! :D

Thanks a bunch on this news!!!

oh good, i'm really happy about that. :yes

Finally...I feel so bad that my buyings in yesasia doesn´t counted to oricon sales!
So this means that this single will have all the data from yesasia,right?

That is a great news!
It would be to have retroactive effect to increase the copies sold by Ayu in the past,right?xDDDD

Thanks so much for that great new!

I agree, FINALLY. It'll be interesting to see the difference in sales now!! I just wish they would have done this sooner since I've bought dozens of CDs off YesAsia XD

I know people have had a lot of issues with YesAsia, but I've never run into any. o.o My orders have always been accurate and timely. I live in USA, so maybe that's why? Dunno, but never had an issue with them.

AWESOME. I wonder if my S/S single counted....

that's great!
thanks for sharing

Yay! That's good news! I know I've only bought from them once; but lots of people do, so that'll be great! :D

cool that they count the sales from YA

Finally >.>

omg! thats so great! :yes
thanks for the info ^^

yes Finally!
thanks, that's great news ^^

That's great to know! :D Thanks for the info.

Yayyy!! This is awesome news! :D

Good for you YA users! I'm still sticking with CDjapan though hahahahaha

rising star has begin her era again~~~~ XD XD~

it should only apply to ALL JAPAN version, those OS/Korean version don't count.
Oh, and of coz her tour goodies don't count....since ORICON don't have that type of chart....

not for me, for preordering ayu's cd, i'll stick to cdjapan.

i normally use EMS and i get my cd ON the release date from them. While YA ships on the release date, and i'll end up getting 4 days to 3 weeks after shipping, no thank you. I want my ayu's cd FAST.

WOW NICE ~
i'm starting to collect a lot of money now kekeke :D

Hooray!!! This is so great!!! Finally~~

CD Japan is too expensive for me. I'd rather wait for my stuff rather than paying an extra 10-30 just so I can get it faster.

YAY~~~ Finally~~
Thanks....

Well that's good news. But I don't care since they blocked my country from free shipping and made my life a living hell. (j/k about the living hell part)

Fantastic! :D

Su-goi =D

same for me ^^ I prefer YA! I don't care if I have to wait 2 weeks ^^ I'll have the CD soon or later ^^ So now Ya is perfect for me!! Now what I'll buy will help Ayu's sales! that's great!!

I emailed YA asking when the will start cpunting the sales, and if they will count sales of S/S as it was released only 2 weeks ago... ^^ I'lll put here the answer!

huh.... i never knew that YA sales didnt count... well dont i feel stupid :P

oh well now i dont have to worry about where im ordering from

great

when you get a reply back from them , I will add it to the 1st post

I got my answer from YA... but they didn't answer me about the sales of S/S

So, officially, all purchases of J-pop albums/singles (only Japanese Version) will be counted towards Oricon Charts, and they will be reported WEEKLY, so the next time we won't see our sales counted until the end of the week ^^ (or that is what I understand ^^')

<so that means that my copy of ALL THE BEST counts ??? :D>
well that is GREAT news, finally I'll have more than 5 cds that count XD

*sniffle* i'm so happy! finally my purchases count!

oh wow, that's cool! finally they do this.

This is definitely awesome news. :yes Really, it took them long enough... :laugh

YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Except I only buy OS versions from there :weep

yes whatever you buy from CDJapan , HMV Japan & Amazon Japan , the sales from these 3 sites are counted towards Oricon

YesAsia wasn't initally but not anymore

So the real question is, do previous purchases of Japan versions count? Or was that already answered?

This is good news for those that order JP stuff from there.
I only use them for HK stuff.

HMV gives much better deals and has faster shipping.:yes

It's about time. I just wish YesAsia restocked their merchandise at a much faster rate.

That's great!

I always buy from YesAsia if I want brand new stuff.

it's about time! maybe I will start to order from them again...lol

It's about time! I think this is great because I have ALWAYS bought all of my J-music from YesAsia. :yes
