i would think it's the OS, cause 400 something bucks in Taiwan is WAY TOO CHEAP for a JP version
400 something taiwanese dollar is about $14
JP would be like $30, that's how much i saw a Secret CD was

I'm not sure because they don't tend to accept preorders of OS presses of items

I know bcos I emailed them regarding the OS press of ARASHI's One Love single

that's true

it doesn't make sense if the Japan press's more cheaper than the Taiwan press

it seems wrong

Ah, ok! Are we talking CD ONLY version? Because even $30 would be cheap for a CD+DVD JP Press.

[pommy48]

just a CD only was $1000 taiwanese dollars, so US dollars is 30% less, so it would be about $30

Ok, ok! That makes sense. Yeah, well, that price is equal to the RRP for most of the CD ONLY releases.

I wonder if BEST FICTION will have a booklet? Namie's "booklets" have been lacking for the last 2 albums. D:

Really?! I wouldn't know seeing as I keep mine sealed. xD.

[prussian blue]

^oh my... are you sure about that?

yeah... play is REALLY lack of picture (but fortunately, the great songs in the CD cover up them), in QOHP, its still acceptable cause namie in pink, the female pink panther and the newspaper is really really cute!

Ah, thanks for that. Now, at least I have an idea what's underneath the sealed wrapping. I know I sound dumb for not opening them, but I only open CDs if I need to rip them, in this case I don't need to, hence my reasoning why I never took off the packaging.

[Alessia_Tateno]

LOL...You are like me ayu-mix =P

I can take pics of both booklets if you'd like, I really wish there were pictures in the booklet, but I do like that the PLAY booklet is a picture of a whip when it's folded out.

They will be taken from my cell phone though, so they won't be the BEST quality.

hey papi we r same again!!!
Swear to God that I never open something important unless i really need them n i cant download them...! <--- My Mom tell me that I was Crazy for that!Haha! She never understand!

[Celaphorce]

IN this pic I only took one shot of 2 lyrics because the rest of the booklet is JUST like this page.

[ayu-mix91]

Thank you so much ^^ =D

I really like the newspaper style of that pink panther picture. Coolness! =D

[Celaphorce]

No problem...I really love the QOHP one especially the pic on the back.

[[taskin.ayu]]

Yeah the QoHP one was decent due to the newspaper. PLAY is just ugh. I was expecting MUCH more. Her STYLE album had a decent booklet, I don't get why she doesn't get good booklets now. D:
I am hoping BEST FICTION will do better with the packaging since it's a BEST album and now that Namie is getting attention again.

Also did anyone notice the fake ad on the back of the newspaper thing? It says "QOHP RADIO 87.5FM, BLACK MUSIC ONLY!!!"
I laughed so hard when I saw that the first time, I mean Namie isn't even black. XDDD

[AyuHamasaki01]

The First Press should be like this **:

- Digipack
- OBI
- Special glitter text
- decent booklet
- stunning poster

Did I forgot something?
