Hit Song Collections, Final Bout OST on eBay

Post by Vaeran » Tue May 31, 2005 3:40 am

(Since the Legit DB Items on eBay thread is locked for some reason, I PMed VegettoEX a few days ago to ask if it would be okay to make this thread. I haven't received a response, so I'm going ahead with it. Apologies in advance if I shouldn't have.)

Anyway, like the topic says, I've got a few DBZ CD auctions ending this week:

Hit Song Collection 9: Future Shock!!

Hit Song Collection 10: Virtual Triangle

Hit Song Collection 11: The Room of Spirit and Time

Hit Song Collection 12: DBZ A Go Go!!

Hit Song Collection 18: Praise for the Future

Hit Song Collection 18 1/2 Special: Super Remix

Dragonball Final Bout Original Soundtrack

They're all legitimate Japanese releases, of course, and in very good condition. Go on, treat yourself. :D

I think the Hit Song Collection 18 and 18/2 are not original. They don't have the Columbia marc on the top corner.

I have them both right here in front of me, and there are Columbia trademarks on the sides and back of both albums, as well as the correct COCC-XXXXX catalog numbers. They are originals.

I know loads of places to just get every japanese DBZ song for nothing.

Why pay money?

And yea those do look a bit dodgy too, why are they so blurry and dark? Can't you just scan the cover crystal clear or something?

Anyway, good luck on your salary ol' chum. ;)

Because we're REAL fans who don't feel the need to steal music?

Because my digital camera sucks and I don't have a scanner. :/ There's nothing dodgy about them.

I'm tempted to ban you on principle, alone.

Ok I lied a bit, I don't actually know where to get them but I know programs where you could probably be able to.

I don't trust ordering off the internet anyway, too many sites you can't trust.

It's the people that provide these songs to the public for free who are the real bad ones.

Way to cover that one up... :roll:

There's plenty of honest sites to order from. If you're trying to buy CDs from random nobodies who can't tell a "Head-Cha-La" from a "Gotta Power," you're asking to get screwed. I've never had a single problem ordering from CDJapan, and neither will you.

And if you're buying from someone on this board, you're almost guaranteed a good deal and an honest person. Besides, I could truly mess up their internet life if they ever screwed over one of my own kind ^_~.

We're very, very against DragonBall music piracy, here, and won't tolerate it in the least.

Ugh, I'm allergic to any post that contains something like "We're REAL fans!". There won't be any "you phails" here, will there?
It's party time, Ginyu style!

Yea, being in Europe (UK) you have to have a proper credit card to order from sites like CDJapan, I have a debit card, and I can only order from other European websites.

The only thing I've ever ordered is a DBZ DVD, Babidi - Battle Royal, only to watch the Japanese version of course. I also bought a Pioneer DVD long ago, the one where Gohan and Krillin escape from Dodoria, and after seeing that episode in Japanese (quite recently) I have to say I got conned. The fact that even on the DVD the episodes were chopped and cut worse than a roast beef dinner made me angry, why pay money if you're not getting what you want? Guess I should've read the back properly.

And I'm sure I'm as real a fan as you are, I've been watching and know too much about DBZ to not be called a real fan.

I'm just a fan because I like it. Call me what you want mate. :)

IMO if you don't like the work enough to pay for it, you're not a true fan.

Ah Christ! Morals do not make a fan!
Do not judge someone on their fandom just 'cause they feel it is easier to download music rather than but it. I understand your point of view because I myself much rather have origionals with cool stuff and all but I can also see why someone downloads the music instead. Hell, I download music but I still buy CD's.

Since when is the easy way the right way?

Yes, I've downloaded music before, but as a way to see if I wanted to buy the CD. I respect the work, and I don't want to steal it. If there's a song I like, but don't want to buy the CD, I just wait for it to come on the radio. Do I think CDs cost too much? Hell yes. That's why I only buy about two or three a year.

Same reason I don't mess with ROMs. Yes, it's free and easy, but it sucks. Playing a console game on a PC is cheapening the experience and I respect the work more than that. I'm sure there are several used game stores in your area, and if not EVERYONE has access to eBay. Buy the game.

I say again,

I never said easy=right. I just said that it is an understandable alternative, if you think about it logically.
