Does all ayu CDs come with OBI?
 

I bought a few ayu CDs (japan press) on ebay... and some of them came without OBI. No even indication of no OBI.. it was just un-mentioned and all. and i can't find pictures of them. It only recently got drawn to my attention that all CDs come with OBIs. is that true?

both my ayu-mi-x 4 came without OBIs. I got both from different sellers though..

^most of them do. Pretty much all of them, though I'm not sure about the 8cm and Fly High/Kanariya, those may just have transperant slips. I can't remember if my Ayu-mi-x 4 AO came with clear purple obi or not, I thought it did. :shrug anyway, when you buy used so sellers tend to not include obi unless indicated.

All four versions of ayu-mi-x II don't have a OBI at least. Then I'm not sure about SUPER EUROBEAT presents ayu-ro mix?

This was posted at ayu-mi-x.com regarding ayu-mi-x 4's:

"- The packaging of ayu-mi-x 4+selection releases varied by pressing: First-pressings were produced in limited amounts of unknown quantity with a colored transparent tray insert and information sticker. All later pressings of the releases removed the colored tray insert and added an OBI in lieu of an information sticker."

most of the ayu cds from ebay have obi, if not, it's usually mentioned in description.. :D ayu-mi-x 2 doesnt have obi FOR SURE, don't think ayumix 4 have them too :D only have slip case for first press. normal press of them don't have obi..from my memory at least

now that u mentioned. both my ayu-mi-x 4 has the colored transparent tray insert inside the CD... no information sticker though...

sibby scared me by saying ALL CDs come with OBIs... -_- i'm relieved now at least... i'm a fussy collector... :x so... anyone wants to buy my RAINBOW japan press CD~ no OBIs! haha... bidded wrongly... :(

Question~ Does Boys & Girls come with an OBI?

No. Forgot to mention it. The case is too slim for it to have a proper OBI.

boys and girls don't have obi too ^^

i just found out O.O
most remix albums have obi too :( unless first press, which is usually slip case

even ayu-mi-x 2 :|

Only overseas version of ayu-mi-x II's have OBI. Not Japan versions.

O.O really, iunno xDD mine are sparkly :luv2

appears have obi i think :D or maybe not ~_~SO MY APPEARS IS NOT MISSING OBI w00t xDD

appears does come with an OBI strip :D

Yes, it does indeed. I'm sad though, because that is the only Ayu release where I miss the OBI for. :(
Unless SUPER EUROBEAT presents ayu-ro mix is supposed to have one? That I still want to know.

Thanks for clearing up my question about 'Boys & Girls'

:)

I really don't get what's so important about the OBIs >.>

I don't have many Ayu CDs, but when I bought them one or two years ago in stores, I just threw them in the trash with the plastic xD

^ I think it's just nice to collect.

Yea me too. It's neat. :P

no not exactly the case aint too thin to have an obi...
if you look at those slim cased hikki cd's they have obi...
an example is hikki's single automatic/time will tell, it has the same slim jewel case xD
