You can do that with amazon? How? So far I've been using yesasia for expensive orders.
I got my Azumi Deluxe Edition from US seller (cdjapan was already out of stock at the time) and managed to get it trough customs.
You can do this with any Amazon site now. If you select 'Gift Options' when you check out, you can choose not to have it gift-wrapped or with a note, but they still allow you to not list the value on the outside of the box. Basically I think it's so you can get around customs unofficially. I've ordered a couple of things from Amazon.co.jp like this and it's been okay. Obviously, there isn't a rock-solid guarantee like YesAsia, but short of opening up the package to check the invoice, there's not much Customs can do. It's worked so far at least

Damn, that's great. Now I don't have to buy all expensive dvds from yesasia. And yesasia's rock-solid guarantee only works for U.K customers. The rest of us are simply asking them to list incorrect value on the package, and then hoping for the best

Is amazon.jp cheaper than yesasia?
Amazon a bit less maybe, but you get free shipping from YesAsia (worldwide now), so it's more or less the same. However Amazon has a much bigger range of stuff when it comes to Aya. They have *everything*.

Products are often cheaper at amazon, but yesasia offers free shipping for expensive orders. So, it's best to check both yesasia and amazon (and cdjapan) before ordering.

cool, thanks =)
edit: hey guys. last week or so, i sent my friend "Ano Hito ni Aitai" (Hatsuratsuu Remix) (from the usotsuki single). he's korean and he said Aya said something in Korean! O.O i listened to that part..but when i compared it to what it sounded like in the other version i had (the remix in the Re. album), it sounded different. however, i cant tell if its just bc they warped it or w/e =\ does anyone else know?
the line is "Anh young hae sae yoh" like..a polite way to say "hello"
in the Hatsuratsuu remix, she says it at approx 1:05, and 1:13..but the one that is REALLY clear is at 2:42. well, the first couple of times i listened to it, it didnt sound like "Anh young hae sae yoh" but then i kept listening and it really sounded like it! so maybe it just coincidentally sounds like it..or maybe she really DOES say it..@_@
in the Re. style version, she says it at about 1:13 and 1:22, and then at 2:49. the 2:49 one is where it sounds warped..=\ whaaa i REALLY hope someone knows. i really wanna know! xD and so will my friend. he fell in love with aya after i showed him the Oronamin C commercial (the one where shes cutely walking down the street with a backpack and singing the song)

Freeza : If you feel that downloading is wrong, please dont come here and waste your time. We are here to share resources and not to complain all day long. Not everyone of us can buy off the shelf and understand Chinese subtitles or Japanese language. So if there is one day where all her DVDs and movies are available with English subtitles, I am sure many of us would love to get hold of it.
