Albums


jhope is your hope

Recommended Posts

So I just started to collect albums and got 3 down.(I know it's not that much but I'm broke.) I got a day and night version of young forever and a signed copy of Red Light Wild Cats version.

 

I found an account on eBay where they sell the albums for cheap and the shipping is adorable. The total cost comes to $25-45 and that's pretty good in my opinion. Or is it good?

 

Can you guys recommend places that might be cheaper?

Also should I get the signed version of Page Two by Twice or should I get the Limited Edition version?

I used to buy from kpoptown, but their shipping is horrendously slow - I preordered Luna's album and they didn't ship it out until a week later. I'm still waiting on it. Same with many other orders I made there. Also, albums would often arrive with corners a bit dented because they use bubble mailers instead of boxes unless your order is large enough (dimension-wise) for a box like 4minute's Act 7.

 

I have since discovered catchopcd, which shipped my order three hours after I placed it. Their prices are a bit cheaper than kpoptown's, and their shipping is about the same I think. I've heard they package really well, though. Only difference with their shop is that they don't do pre-orders, and you order posters separately. (Not that posters are free at places like kpoptown or kpopmart - you have to pay like $5 for the tube, anyway.)

 

I've also discovered Korea Mall thanks to a youtube haul vid, but I've never ordered from them. Basically, their prices are really cheap, too, but shipping is expensive unless you order around $45 or so - then it's free. Better than YesAsia, which has both high prices and shipping until you buy about $45 worth.

 

As for Twice.. up to you. Whatever is more worth it, although I will say it could be easier to get the limited version after you get the signed version and find out which (pink or mint) you got.

I buy in Yeasia and get free shipping. I think if your order is more than 39* it's free, but the albums are slightly more expensive than in other sites. Since I always order many albums at the same time I don't care.

If you want cheaper shipping, a domestic importer might be best. -importcds and Music Plaza are good choices. Keep in mind that the albums themselves might be more expensive.

 

These are the overseas shippers that I've used without any major problems (the shipping can get expensive, though):

 

ktown4u

grapemusiccd - I use them mostly for merch, but they have a great selection of albums.

kpopplus

kpopmart

Global Interpark - it took them a while to ship my order.

kpoptown - can take them a while to get orders out; just got shipment confirmation for a Block B DVD I ordered over a week ago.

catchopcd

YesAsia - took almost a month to determine that one of the items I ordered wasn't available. I haven't has any other problems with them. Shipping can be expensive unless you're ordering a lot of stuff. And their prices in general seem to be higher than other sites.

 

The best thing you could do is research, research, research. :)
