I don't know how many people heard of shiki, but those that do, you may also know that he (they?) released a cd called 'cristears'. But its only sold in Japan apperently (in natsucomi.. or something)
Out of a whim, i decided to email shiki if they'd sell the cd to the US. Heres the response I got (in engrish, with possible 'translation' in [brackets]):
Quote:
I'm glad to [you] listen to my Music.
It is unusual to get support from U.S.A.
album "Cristears" sold it in Japan and Korea.
I [it] have not been sold in other countries.
In Korea, a representative bought it in a mass.
It is difficult to buy only one piece in U.S.A...
Can you pay the price to a Japanese bank?
If payment is possible, I sell it.
I intend to present Cristears if impossible [possible?].
I am weak in English. I'm sorry.
Then I wait for an answer.
Good-by.
So besides me, are there any other takers? Maybe we can do a combined shipping thing (not entirely sure how it works, here a linkclicky)
No idea what the exact cost is going to be, but shiki is selling it for about 1300 yen 'in stores' over there.
