Heza xmkatx How much did you buy it for? MISSA: 2420 yen = 21.87 US Dollars = 28.07 Canadian Dollars GAUZE: 2905 yen = 26.23 US Dollars = 33.66 Canadian Dollars My Saku order was, of course, legit. I was wary of ordering MISSA and GAUZE in the first place because I've never found it in stock at the sites I purchase from. I thought HMV Japan was a pretty safe bet for non-bootlegs. Considering the price, and apparently the royalties still reach Diru... I'm just fussy about official and non-official merchandise. lol. I don't know whether to lable it 'bootleg' and return it or just suck it up, so what if it has a logo. They're the CDs I've been waiting ages to acquire... Any opinions? I've only ordered Dir en grey from CDJapan, but I think that HMV should have official releases. I didn't want to buy the bootlegs for 2 of the DVDs, but that was before I knew about HMV Japan. Well, I also got Blitz VCDs sweatdrop I think that the MISSA and Gauze that I look at are always so expensive because I look for first presses. The ones on HMV are most likely legit but not first presses.

Heza I don't know whether to lable it 'bootleg' and return it or just suck it up, so what if it has a logo. Well, I'm keeping MISSA. sweatdrop I cracked that suckah open, and peeled off that damned JASRAC sticker! xd xd xd Gauze has no spelling errors, no bonus tracks, it's copyright is Free-Will Co., Ltd. 2001. When I first read '2001' on the HMV.co.jp site... I thought that it had been too good to be true to find authentic MISSA and GAUZE CDs... And, is it a 2nd pressing if it has that girl's face up close on the front? And not her all swirly and running?

[deep breath]
Well... I think I'll keep it. Just take off the sticker... [just have to take the case apart] Maybe it's not 100% official. But, it's legit enough for me now.
FREE-WILL co., Ltd.
FWR-030 [no idea what it means... it just matches with the official diru discography whee sweatdrop ]
And it's MADE IN JAPAN. WHERE BOOTLEGS ARE ILLEGAL.
And a major music supplier like HMV wouldn't stand for selling illegal bootlegs, now would it... smile [tryin to reassure self]
Thanks so much xmkatx! ^^
I normally shop at CD Japan. I've bought all my other CDs there.
I buy my hide plushies at jpophouse.com. xd xd xd
Whee!
VULGAR
MACABRE
KISOU
CHILD PREY
KASUMI
DRAIN AWAY
SAKU
GAUZE
MISSA
aaaaand...
KAI is on its way!!!!
