Saw this Ayu CD on e-bay...is it real? o.O

Didn't know where to post this so..I posted it here in enquiries.
I was looking about on e-bay and I found someone selling a CD collection with 60 tracks altogether of Ayu songs called 'Look Heart'
It looks real I've just never herd of it before, could someone help me out? o.O

Here's 2 pics.

some chinese bootlegs are worth getting thou imo...

for example [the past and other side of ayu] is a good purchase cos it has the [NOTHING FROM NOTHING] album / single plus [the other side] series (a pretty cool collection of previously unreleased remixes... basically extended / dub versions from mixes found on [ayu-mi-x II] which are all pretty hard to find as they were limited 2 only 10,000copies each if my memory serves me correctly...) all in a 4cd package... usually not too expensive either

Fake...and if some loser tries telling you it's the 'China' version and isn't a bootleg, kick them.

And you can't fit 60 full length songs on one cd o_O"

It's a set of 3 cds i think. That's something bootlegs do alot, they'll put 2, 3, or 4 discs together in one package to make it more desirable to buy.

I do not think it is bootleg it is just the "China" version, that is only available in China and it cost about 1/5 of the original. Call me naive, but it has the sticker and it is HDCD. A bootleg will not have that kind of package. A bootleg cd only comes with a disc and a front and back cover printed in low quality paper.

That's true, there are sometimes Chinese versions printed up with VCDs instead of DVDs, etc. They refer to them as "overseas versions" on YesAsia, but there isn't really a "standard" jargon on them in other places. They could just be the Chinese version... My copy of LOVEppears from YESASIA doesn't say on there, "OVERSEAS VERSION." Merely, it has a Chinese obi and many other markings that have been altered. The first one looked bootleg, second not so sure.

They are both bootlegs I assure you...

China ver = bootleg, it's just the way mainlanders cover up their pirated goods

Yesasia OS ver however (could be Taiwanese OS or Hong Kong OS) are authentic and official Avex Asia releases. Those 2 are not, HDCD sticker or not...what it should have instead is the CCCD sticker XD

For the HDCD sticker, that's a bootlegged sticker xD

There are different kinds of bootlegged Cds, one is a sheet of paper with a cd in it, that are sold for five dollars here in Canada. (sometimes I buy them just for the pretty lazer-colourprinter-printed picture XD)
And others have a CD case, that looks just like a real one except....cheaper looking. They usually come with a booklet of pretty pictures, if you're lucky ^O^.
I have a Namie Amuro one that's like that. Eh-heh.

I get CDs because they look pretty, have a gorgeous booklet and in a jewel case and stuff, so I tend to stay miles away from bootlegged ones. Besides, if you're going to buy a bootlegged version, why not just download xD. *guilty*

It's a fake, I've actually seen the first one in a Chiense store before. The way they misspell a lot of the song names are funny. The first one with "lockhart" was really just Key (~enternal tie ver.~ after looking online about what it could be.

Don't buy it. it's probably worth 2 dollars. Never buy a thing with HDCD on it. they make very very very bad bootlegs.

"oooooh look here we're all fancy with our 'Chinese' version saying HDCD and misspelling 21 out of 20 titles! this is definitely real oooh oooh oooh". No.
