Got the "this is the price of shipping your calendars" email from HMV, 3700yen for 10 of the solo calendars... I hope they're not folded or I'll die at that price I bloody well hope they're not...
^ That's what puts me off HMV, the fact you don't know your shipping price until they're about to ship it :/ Happy cuz my Yui calendar got shipped today!
Has anyone of you bought the AKB48 official calendar box 2012, I am very curious to see pictures thanks I want to buy it, but im not 100% sure.
I bought 4 different poster style calendars. ¥980 each the Tokyo date ones don't seem to be released until 29th the AKB cheer up Japan calendar or whatever it's called seems to be sold out everywhere I went. well I thong that's what the signs said.
http://www.cdjapan.co.jp/detailview.html?KEY=2012CL-635 it says the first press is sold out but I think they still have the cheer up calendar... im not sure though.. it says usually [worried]
Ugh ffs, HMV still haven't shipped my calendars after I gave them the go-ahead to ship them... it has been a week...
I'll get one of Sayaka from cd-japan when i decide which one to choose I want some from other girls too but i don't think i can afford it,since i plan to buy the DVDs together [wonder]
I am still a little confused whats the difference between the tokyo date and the normal 2012 calendars?
It lists the differences in the first post- Solo calendars- size B2 (27.83 x 19.69 in), 1 poster only, MSRP 981 yen. Tokyo Date calendars - 8 pages, 30 x 30 cm (11.81 x 11.81 in) with a case, MSRP 1980 yen. So the 'normal' ones are simply a poster, while the Tokyo Date ones are several pages.
I ordered Takamina's Tokyo Date calendar and the 2012 calendars of Acchan and Mayuyu The shipping was so expensive bc they didn't had the FEDEX option but anyways ... waiting for them!
I will try them, the thing is that I wanted to use some points I had hehehe but if you compare prices, yesasia has more expensive the calendars, so at the end is the same thing...
^You're using CDJ right? I have absolutely no idea why the FedEx option is no longer available for not only calendars but figures and other merch as well. I think thankfully, you can still ship books with it. That option saved me a ton in shipping before but now I have to either pay out the ass for EMS/Airmail or order separately. I don't even see an explanation for the change on their site so I could at least, understand it so I'm just damn annoyed. Haven't ordered mine yet, too many options so I'm waiting to see the results. Those who have theirs on the way, please do share some pics.
Yes I am using CDJ, I think its because of the volume (maybe but not sure), I will ask on their twitter account later. And yes, FEDEX saved me a TON on shipping, also because I only have FEDEx or EMS since its secured and here in Mexico is popular to your mail been stolen or such, so it narrows to only those options, anyways... next time I will compare prices also with HMV (I am really aiming on other two calendars ) I will put pictures as soon as I get them, they said they shipped my order [party]
I think I'm the only one who likes Team B's outfits! I think they are the cutest, though I love Team 4's as well. Mayuyu's hat in particular is awesome. With the date books, can they actually be used as calendars? Like, do they have spaces to write appointments for each day? I want to get Kojiharu's, but only if I can use it. Or has this information not been released yet? I'm debating whether I want Sayaka or Haachan's poster calendar. Haachan doesn't get as much support so I want to do so here, but I like Sayaka a little more, and both have lovely pictures. Hmm....
You are not the only one, I bought the mayuyu one because: I like her, I play the piano and love music, so I bought that one for those reasons. About the date books, when I recieve them I will post pictures of them, I still will not put anything on them LOL
