My CDs Arrived !!!

natalaxie · #1 8th September 2004, 12:56 PM

Hey dudes! Guess wot! My 8 Ayumi maxi singles arrived in the mail yesterday and I wanted to share my excitement

I took a photo of them my whole Ayu collection - the new ones are at the top. I know there's already a thread for this, but i didnt want to waste space there blabbing aobut how i waited 2 weeks for them to come after they were shipped and stuff.

This is what I got:

A (orange disc version)
vogue
Far away
SEASONS
SURREAL
Endless sorrow
UNITE!
Free & Easy (limited disc with ayu's face on it

!!!!)

unfortunately there is a slight crack in the free & easy case, and part is even broken off the Endless sorrow case.... but i barely care with all the excitement!!! there's all japan version with perfectly intact OBIs!! anyway, i'm planning to upload, do lyrics romanisations and review all 8 of them in the next few weeks. keep a look out in the ayumi downloads section - i'm about to post the ysi links for "A". also, keep checking my website for reviews and lyrics - i may even feel inspired to translate the lyrics. so if u like please check it all out at www.geocities.com/onestop_jpop

lastly, don't the pics look kool!!?? (bad lighting tho - gomen)

Groovy. Wants your SEASONS single, where'd you order from?

luminaire · #4 8th September 2004, 03:00 PM

I thought "SEASONS" was, and still is widely available? Although I missed it when HMV was having a sale and selling it for $15.50, and had to import one at $29. *glares at HMV*

Anyway, nice order you have there. =)

Awesome! I have the singles for vogue, Far away, SURREAL, and Endless sorrow too, among others. They're great singles!!! Plus, Endless sorrow is one of my favorite Ayu covers ever!!! It was my desktop for the longest time!

Enjoy your cd's!! ^_^

I'm jealous! You got Free & Eeasy Limited Edition?

^ That was a special edition of Hamasaki Republic, a magazine, or something like that. It had a lot of photos of Ayu in the Joan of Arc role. Pretty neat. ^^

Where did you buy the broken cases ? On YesAsia ?

I bought some ayu CDs on yesasia two months ago, I took some photos of the broken cases, they gave me a RMA (return autorisation) and I sent the broken cases to YesAsia and they returned me some new items. O_o
So, I have now some items twice :

(psychedelic background, isn't it ?)

Unfortunately no...yesasia doesn't have any...I couldn't find any in HK......(although I saw an OS Ver overpriced in HMV the first day, wanted a Jpn ver, but decided what-the-hell, I'll grab it anyway since I can't find it anywhere else, but it's gone -_-)

cdjapan has few in stock...maybe I'll have to order from them =/

Since I only sent the broken cases, I thank that they would send me some new cases without CDs into, but YesAsia sent me complete and new items.

This is simple :
A = cases, B = CDs/DVDs
I bought A and B, A was broken, but B worked, so I only sent A to YesAsia. They sent me A and B instead of sending me only an A. So, I have now : A, B and B.

But natalaxie didn't buy the singles on YesAsia ...

elaniel · #20 9th September 2004, 08:52 PM

I got all of Ayu's albums, dvds and singles (all japan versions)

I had a lot of issues with Yesasia and cracked cases (about half get here broken)

So I order from cdjapan as it is faster and they keep it nice and safe in wrapping.

I also got the Free and Easy 1st press and gold version of Monochrome.

Also a blue version of H
