FIVE in Singapore

Seriously , super rip off much , Warner Music S'pore ?

I was at Bukit Panjang Plaza earlier on when I went to Popular & I took these pics when I was there ...





Seems that Warner S'pore has stopped making albums for its jpop artistes now (1st Kumi then Namie & then ayumi) , if not why they import stock of FIVE from Hong Kong ? :x

FIVE's being sold at CD-rama at S$28.95 which's a big rip off to me but at least they state in front there's a premium they'll giving away which I guess it should be the clearfile

But still , it's sad to say that now , buying jpop here is not reliable as before ._.

it shall be the same for the dvd release too. it's been the same for past few years. buying online is cheaper and even free shipping from YA reaches before the cd shops in singapore(not hmv's jp press imports).

The only way to buy "cheap" J-Pop stuff is to buy them in Mainland China, local releases, even though usually the product quality is not that good and J-Pop albums take a while to be release there ; like half a year after the Japanese release date, or even more...

That's why I check Avex China's website like everyday, and they only release like 3 albums/single per month ?

But for 8$ the CD+2DVD album, it's a really good deal XD I sometimes find singles for 1,50$ or so... And official recent products, not counterfeit !

Thanks for the info so much!!! Was at Somerset 313 this wed but still didn't see the cd stock arrive..almost killing my patience. But the price of $28.95 at CDrama is so expensive for a Mini album!! HMV is selling cheaper but I keep thinking that should be the price of full length album. Argh. Things are so expensive these days.

Gosh I don't know where should I go get my Ayu FIVE album now. T_T

lol how can you compare a Japan press in here ? Usually Japan press's more expensive than an OS press , no matter the situation

but yeah it's ironic that HMV is selling much cheaper than CD-Rama . Maybe HMV is not giving away the clearfile ?

I'm waiting for FIVE in my country, it's will out this month (They didn't told the date yet)
It's very cheap here CD+DVD ver. (For full length studio album) cost only 11 usd or 839 yen. It's seem very cheap but the quality is so random lol. Love songs is not good but it's okay. The best quality that they has release is RnRCC, it's so good. The bad thing here is they release only 1 version and not release single and her concert.
