This time I ordered from HMV and usually CDs I bought there took some days or a week to arrived, not as fast as CDJ but still quite fast.
I also prefer to save money on shipping things but waiting too long also drives me insane XD When I bought first concert DVD from play-asia, I waited for about a month before it arrived and I felt crazy whenever read forums people already got it and watched it lol

I would go crazy, but that seems way too long...
When I buy from CDJ and choose SAL shipping, my package gets here within 1 1/2 weeks X_X So by long, I meant about that time and 2-3 days is what I consider fast~

I try Fedex, UPS or EMS because is fast and safe.
When i pick Air mail, it takes 1 month or more, and sometimes the jewel cases and the obi are broken.

When i buy something i try to buy more than 2 items because isn't really expensive the shipping costs.

I'm going to try buy the dvd in november, First press please wait !!!!!!!

I ended up ordering from YesAsia. It'll probably be slower than usual, since it will be shipped during the holiday season, but at least I'll save money on shipping and customs.

Do you guys still think the first press with autograph is still available. omg really forgot about this, I need to order it really sooner than planned but I really hope it's still there... :(

yep! CDJapan still has it...my brother ordered it for me yesterday lol

The sales page will mention it if the 1st press is sold out.

Oh yeah that's right, I could check the CDJapan page... Sorry. Not in a hurry to receive it so I'm gonna order it on Yesasia. I really hope it's 2DVD, bc 50E for one DVD... omg X_____X

It will be released 4 days before my birthday, and I ordered it from CD Japan so it should arrive just in time for me to watch it on my birthday! This will be my biggest present also!

The last DVD I ordered from HMV.co.jp arrived crushed. The DVD was ok, but the case was demolished and the cover art was ripped. I trust CD Japan to ship more safely, but then it costs a little more.

^really? when i bought with HMV my cd's were perfect, but when i ordered one cd with cdjapan, my cd was destroyed, i only buy with cdjapan when i pay for fedex

Depends. It happened with my Charice CD. Small crack on the jewelcase but CD was intact. But sometimes it could be your local postal service not handling it with enough care. Putting it under a heavy load of other packages or thowing stuff in bags etc.. As a general rule they put CD's in bubble envelopes. So they are not entirely protected for heavy treatment. Cardbox would be better but also more expensive. I wished they'd give the option to choose packing material.


Now onto the autographed postcard. Knowing alan personally signed them I just can't wait to receive my copy. Haha maybe there's even some small tracking number on the postcard. Hope I have the #1 signed postcard!

out of topic but did you report the damaged case to HMV? It happened to me before and they sent a new copy.

No I didn't report it. The CD was still perfect so I didn't want to go trough all the hassle to send it back to Japan. Just disappoined about the crack in the jewelcase. But my alan PREMIUM BEST & MORE did arrive undamaged. Moon Goddess has protected it.

^ Yeah now that I think about it all the CDs I bought from alan online arrived flawlessly intact (like VoE, Kaze ni mukau hana...), whereas sometimes the other CDs had cracks on the jewel case O______O

alan is my religion anyway... hahaha

^^ In my case, they didn't ask that I send it back. They told me to dispose of it! Of course I didn't. They send a replacement within a week.

yesasia still have the 1st Press?
It's writen in japanese but the don't say if they still have it: 初回仕様: 直筆サイン&シリアルナンバー入りポストカード

So how can I know if I'll get 1st Press?

------------------

SAL CD japan has codetrack?
I hate BRazilian Custumers --'

^you need to tell them in your order comment to check if your item is first press before they ship it.

kinda sucks but that's the way they do it.

CDJapan still have first press too~

I wonder when the 1000 limited copies will be sold out...*_*

Avex will make a new edit on the concert or will be the same edit we saw on niconico?
I hope new!

Yaaay I pre-ordered mine with the limited edition! I'm so exited!!!

Nice! Glad that you were able to order it!

I wonder when the first press will be sold out *_*
