Hi

Is there anyone planning to buy this that could possibly order me a copy too? I'm having issues with the website and if I read correctly it's free shipping on orders over 2500 yen, so 2 CD's would cover that. I will of course pay for all other postage costs.

Let me know if anyone can oblige!

Cheers
Mark

Hi

Actually, upon closer inspection the free shipping is in Japan only......

Still if anyone is willing to help

[markus]

A word of warning to people who have never ordered from Japan or overseas, if you order above a certain amount (2-3 CDs), your items may get taxed by customs, which can get very expensive. Also if it gets stuck in customs, delivery can be delayed for days and sometimes weeks...

I've ordered stuff from HMV Japan for years, dozens of times, and can highly recommend them. I've never ever had a problem with them.
