what can 105 yen in harajuku get you?

a used, perfect condition, with obi, audience single. yup, that's right.



<33333333


my friend just got back from japan (he was there for two weeks) and went crazy spending money on CDs...including all the ayu albums he was missing (A Song For XX, LOVEppears, Duty) and random ayu singles. He also picked up audience, for 105 yen. YES, 105 YEN. (about 1.05 USD). And, since he didn't really care about it, gave it to me for 0$ <3

apparently Ayu is dirt cheap in japan! :O

I must say, buying used in Japan really pays off. I found 'rare' singles (not Ayumi) when I was there for just a few bucks. It all depends where you shop, so keep your eyes peeled!

used CD shops are your friends. There are alot of them too, most of them are former cd rentals. There's one in Los Angeles where i got kanariya, Fly high, and the original poker face & LOVE~Destiny~ singles. poker face was $1.50
