Personally, I have been purchasing from Yesasia for 3 years now. I haven’t been to happy with it. The delivery is delayed upto 2 months at times. The wait is tiring..
I would love to purchase more from Amazon, but there I feel there is no point in doing so if my purchase isn’t added to the Charts. Recently I have been buying albums & merchandise from Ktown4u, which is quite reasonable in terms of pricing as well as delivery.. Hoping they keep it up.
