I am so shy andI dn't know if I am at the right place to ask this question. I am a blind person, jut started to purchase Japanese mini lp sleeve and I have sign in with cd japan, if I am making a mistake and I ask at the wrong place, please forgive me. My qustion is this, I have visited many time cd japan, and I a located in Canada, now, whe I look with the helpof my screen reader an idem that I would loe to purchase, I find the price very fair, but can someone tell me why the shipping is so much, why would cd japn not aloud regular mil, it would be so much cheaper and a person like me could purchase from cd japan so much more. I have friends in Japan and we use regular mail and we hav never lost anything. Why not giving that obtion? I would like to thank you so much to not be upset if I have ask a question at a wrong place. Though, I was looking now for 2 weeks at new albums and really , it is the shipping that stop me from purchasing. Again, offering regular mail, maybee with a warning that the purchaser is let's say purchasing at their ownrisk. Sorry for my spelling. Am I making any sens? Thank you for reading my question.

Hi,
It is possibly a problem with your screen reader (or rather a problem with the site design). CDJapan actually have the most reasonable shipping options and rates of all the major Japanese sellers in my opinion. They offer everything from SAL (Surface Air - can be registered if you want) up to FedEx (which is of course expensive).
When you get to the "Order Summary" page in the checkout process (where they tell you the shipping price) there is a button shortly after an "h6" heading called "Shipping Method" with the text "Edit". If you click on this link you can change the shipping method to one of the far cheaper options. This is a radio button selection. Also, it remembers what you chose last time so you probably only need to do this once. I can't give you an href for this as it is linked to your order number.
It would have been better for you (and better design) if they had either labelled the button "Change Shipping Method" or at least added some alternate text - but there you go.
If you still have problems then email them on info at cdjapan dot com. They sometimes take a little while to respond but they are very helpful.
All the best, Sam.

UICY-9522 (fake) : Here is a comparison between a genuine official copy of Aerosmith Pump made by Universal and a Russian counterfeit copy. In the picture, the real one is on the left and the fake is on the right. |
DU-SP110-0412P : 2006-10-04 Zippo lighter gimmick box in the style of "Catch a Fire" | | |
WPCR-13142 (fake) : 2009-01-01 This fake Led Zeppelin 40th Anniversary appears to be made in China. You would find it hard to pick a sealed copy of this as being anything other than than the real deal. Inside it is also remarkably similar but has some significant, obvious differences in packaging including: (a) the CD comes in a flimsy loose fitting bag (b) Physical Graffiti has no cut out windows and (c) III (3) has no turning wheel. The CDs also have the tell tale extra ring in the middle but this is much better disguised than usual. Unusually for fakes these have the catalogue number and an IFPI code (CC 303) on the silver side of the disc. |
7243 5 51728 2 : 2003-04-22 This Boxset covers the singles of Duran Duran from 1981-1985. 13 discs including all the original B-sides. The packaging is a flip top box with each single in a mini-lp style reproduction of the original artwork from the 7" and 12". | | |
BVCM-37083 : 2000-01-08 This is the eponymous first album from Elvis Presley. It is the first rock & roll album to reach number one on the national charts (holding at number 1 for 20 weeks) and the first million dollar selling pop album. |
EMICD-11228 : 2007-11-26 16 CD box set - being 14 studio albums including 2 doubles.
According to Pink Floyd Brain Damage site there were a few glitches with this release, the most notable being a misprinting of the inner bag for the second CD in "The Wall".
There are also cases of an album being missed out and duplicates in their places.
The later Japanese release of this box set is basically identical to this box set.
Poor quality fakes exist for this set - more details below.
The original Japanese individual releases are regarded as being of a much higher quality to either of these box sets.
You can see a YouTube video of this set on the videos page. | | |
