Project #1 Is Up and Running

Feb 05, 2010 08:53

As I mentioned in my last post, I've been sort of brainstorming a new project for a while now, and it's only been since I was able to find a little more free time that I could really get moving on it. I'm starting a community that aggregates all the Asian media deals available out there - or at least the ones I can find, and I'd love if those of ( Read more... )

Awww. Thank you! I'm hoping a few more people will join before I try and start contacting the Asian-centric comms out there.

You are a rock star! Thank you!

Here's hoping I get a few members. I'll PM some of the bigger comms this weekend and see if they'll be OK with me making pimp posts there, too.

I just got your DM from Twitter :D This seems like an awesome idea!! I hope it works out for you :DD At the moment I can't think of anything to add to it unfortunately T__T most of my collection was either from CDJapan (btw, I seemed to find that CDJapan had lower prices than YesAsia -- especially on CD's.. they're like 100 to 200 yen cheaper? Or am I way off here? XD Either way, I found that CDJapan had faster turnaround time. I usually get my stuff in like 1-2 weeks with them, whereas with YA, it's taken up to a month T_T) or through people online who are trying to sell their collection.

If I think of something I'll let you know! :D

Thanks for the input, especially about CDJapan! You are 100% right about their base prices being consistently cheaper than YesAsia's, so I will definitely address that on the page - awesome catch.

My reason for going with YesAsia often (though I do totes shop at CDJapan, too) is that while I've noticed the price differences between the two companies, since I tend to have my pre-order CDs sent express (I have a problem with patience :D ), the cheaper express at YesAsia tends to even out the price difference for me in the end.

LOL

I am made of so much fail.

And seriously, if you think of anything else, just let me know. I'm off to go edit the post! Thanks, bb!
