What the hell. Are you Alizee or related to her? She posted this 3 minutes ago on her Facebook...about as old as your post. ;)

He's her stalker. But you didn't hear that from me... :w:

Anyways...

Jeez, 69 Euros is a little (lot) steep for me. I don't think I can justify spending over $85 alone on the product, let alone shipping which I imagine pushing it way into the hundreds...

Guess I'm gonna have to wait for the regular one to come out. :(

It was pushing the boundaries for sure, but I did it. Looks like I'm 226th. But, if I remember correctly, the UEDS box set was around $140 after all was said and done, so this wasn't as bad. About $117. I'm liking where this album is headed as far as sound goes, so no guilt here. :)

Took me forever to get the order through. It keep kicking me back to the first page and when I went forward it added on another unit to my cart. When I clicked to adjust the order it gave me the old 404 page BS. I was up to six box sets on Firefox before I switched over to Explorer and the site let me change the order back to one. Well I finally got it ordered after 30 minutes of frustration, order number 227. 96.16€ with shipping to the states.

With the Euro continuing to tank, it might not be too bad on the exchange rate by October. We could see $1.05 per Euro to maybe 1 to 1 by then.

I can't complete my order. It says there is a problem processing my payment, validating my card is impossible. I use this card all the time, especially when I have bought stuff from France. :(

Edit: Never mind. I just received a call from my credit card's fraud Dept. and they had blocked it. After I informed them that it was OK, they let it go through.

Does anyone know how many of these are available, exactly? Rough estimate maybe? They gave a date for when pre-orders will still be available but I'm on sort of a tight budget so I'm not sure when I'll be able to justify spending $100+ on this. I'd like to order before they run out!

My guess is they haven't started production yet and they will make as many as they need right after the ordering period is over. But it's only a guess on my part.

Ohhh that's a relief. Thanks you two :)

Also I think it's cute that the box comes with an Alizee temporary tattoo (at least I think that's what it is, maybe it's one of those sample pictures for a real tattoo you can get). The autographed mirror also sounds really nice.

Sadly, as much as I said the minute a limited edition collectors box comes out I would buy it...I just can't justify spending any more than a CD every few months or so. T would just sit on my shelf...and look...quite feminine. Sorry, I'm posting to talk myself out of buying it and saving up for a $950 Canon T4i DSLR...which I could make cool fan-made Alizée videos with which would be more fun. Don't give in Aaron...a signed CD of her next album will be enouhgh! Agh!!!

#348 Plus you get to download the new single. Call your credit card company before you place the order and to tell them about the purchase. The robot at mine just wanted to know the dollar amount and I didn't know it exactly but I put in $117.32 (ouch) and when I placed the order it went right through. So now I can get over wanting to purchase the single download. Also I used IE, you all had me too scared to use Firefox, my default.

I'm pretty sure FireFox did an update early this afternoon. I had to run to the bank for work and shut down my computer. When I got back all was well once I restarted it back up. I was getting an expanded AAM front page, text only with no pictures before the restart. I'm betting all of us FireFox users got the same update and hadn't restarted our computer to finalize the installation, thus creating the problems we had trying to order from Sony France.

I hope Sony is taking note on the number of U.S. addresses that are popping up on these orders.

I am #362 ... poop!!!! I paid $117.76 ... the USD to EUROS changed in value by 44 cents since your purchase... curses!... I paid using Fire Fox and I have a separate online "bill pay" account that I transferred money into before making the purchase. This is my "fraud protection" account provided by my bank. I love it! The money went through right away, just like a debit card!

I just might go buy another one... hmmmm... :)

For those of you thinking about getting one and live in the U.S. the conversion fluctuates like every 15 minutes!

Check out the current conversion rate to see what the total price of the album is now (this is accurate):
Current Conversion of 96.16 EUROS (The total price of the Album purchase plus shipping to the United States) to USD (http://www.google.com/search?ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&sourceid=navclient&q=96.16+%E2%82%AC+in+USD)

Why would you automatically pay them ten weeks before the release? They're normally not going to charge your account until they ship. I pre-ordered her last Special Box set and they didn't bill my card until the week they shipped.

Call your bank. If it is cleared up you're okay. The bank usually freezes suspicious payments without entirely canceling them until they get definitive notice from the car holder. If anything your payment just got delayed with Sony... no biggie... you can try calling Sony to be sure as well.. call the US number.

I'm still on the fence with this one. I've never been a big believer in this type of thing. I'd rather buy 3 of the regular cds and give a couple away than buy one of these collector editions, but a member contacted me yesterday and said he was having trouble placing his order and asked me to try and he'd re-imburse me . I gave it a shot and I was using bing to translate the page as I went along.

I went through the process and when I'd click on my basket, I'd get a 404 error. I went back and tried it again, same thing but it was showing I had a total of 2. At this point I figured I'd go ahead and order and get one for myself, but again got the 404 message. I tried it twice more, this time using other translators to translate the page. The third time I got the 404 message again. Tried it one last time, before I clicked on the basket, it was showing I had 4 now, with the total price around 270 euros. I finally was able to click on the basket successfuly, but then they had a page asking for all your information.

I was a little nervous at this point, thinking I wouldn't be able understand the page well enough and I might get stuck with 4, so I caved. I told the other member, but he had been by that time figured it out, so it's a good thing I gave up. I might have been stuck with 4.

Does the 69 euros include shipping. If not how much is it? I remember with UEDs it was around $50 which I wanted no part of, especially since I was planning on going over there anyways.

There is no English version, but most of the required parts are in English. So even you directly go to the site (http://alizee.sonymusic.fr/?utm_source=site_officiel&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=FR_D2C_Alizee_juillet2012) and proceed further you won't face any issue.

Last time for example, after a blizzard hit the Northern Virginia area, I shoveled snow with a friend to pay for my UEDS box. That blizzard was a true blessing, idk if I would have been able to pay for it otherwise, plus no school for two weeks!! :D:D:D

:omg:&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Did you guys "re-download" the single after you ordered the LE Box??? I haven't read anybody writing about it in this thread... Is it a better (higher bit-rate) file than the 192 kbps file we got from the mailing preview???

Am I wrong that this can be done??? Wake up!!!:bye:
So many ordered already how come nobody mentioned it ?? I can't order it this week... perhaps next.

I'm sure it can still be downloaded by signing in to 'her store' with the account name and password obtained while placing the order for the Limited Edition new single Box. Anybody brave enough?

It can be downloaded thrice, but it's same same file.

Thanks Meci Alizee,


:facepalm: &nbsp;&nbsp;A crack at a better file before October would've been - a nice hold me over 'till - AND a bit of a carrot , as it were, to get "the box". Particularly in "Pays" where the digital download is not available!! "USA, no chunky acdla for you!"

When I tried it, like I said, all the buttons were in French, for instance the one on the page that said close, said fermer for me.

Edit : There is an English version of the site. I guess most of you are browsing http://alizee.sonymusic.fr/fr while in my case it was http://alizee.sonymusic.fr/en by default. Although clicking second link might give you an error. Just click Retour à la page d'accueil button.

Wow, after paying a fortune, they didn't give you the iTunes/Amazon mp3 (which I'm sure it a higher bitrate)??

I'm with Scruffy on this one (even though he caved and used an excuse to buy one for himself anyway :) ). I don't like these collector's editions which sort of takes advantage of the rabid fans. And a hat box? Hey Alizee, you have male fans too! ;)

From a practical standpoint, I have a feeling the album is not going to be sold in the U.S. for awhile and it'll be sold strictly as an import to her U.S. fans. So the CD alone is going to be $35 for us unless we can get Scruffy to make a trip to France and bring back a crate of them for us. :)

I just wish Alizee would stop crapping on her American fans. She should send some personal greetings instead of ignoring us. Even show up on this forum for a personal chat session. :(

All I can say is that I successfully ordered using Firefox. As I said before, the only problem I had was with my credit card company. They called me while I was still online trying to place my order. I verified that the attempted purchase was legitimate and then they told me I might have to submit the order again for it to go through. Since I had the order page still open in my browser with all my info still filled in, I simply re-entered my credit card info and was then able to place the order successfully.

Heads up for those of you in America making a purchase.

My bank just blind-sided me with an International bank fee charge of $1.72 today. Granted, the fee was small, but it was also delayed about a week from when I made the original purchase. I could of had an insufficient funds fee if I didn't have anything in my account. And now I have to adjust the balance on my check book.

Be mindful of possible bank fees!

If anyone was putting off preordering because of the language barrier... I was just browsing Alizée's store and noticed they have added a 'button' up top on the right on some pages that will change the text to English. I logged in and looked at my order and info, and you might have to click the English again for each page. Not everything gets translated though. It would also make it easier for you if you call your credit card company before you submit the order and tell them you are going to be making an unusual purchase, then it will just go through and you'll get your confirmation.

I'm guessing that those autograph cards she was teasing us with last week might end up in the box. I'm pretty sure that that box she showed on Instagram was at her home. Why would they send a box of that many cards there? For appearances someone else would bring them and she would sign them there. How many does she need at home? It would be great to find one in my box.

Couldn't agree more! But still I ordered the box, I know that Alizée's not that rich since Mylène earned most of what she gained concerning the first two albums, has bought a pretty expensive flat in paris, has been used to quite a lavish lifestyle and because her last two albums didn't sell much ... and the look in her eyes when she'll write her signature on the back of the box will be priceless to me :need:

Well, it could be good sign though. May be it was selling better than they anticipated that they decided to create another one (gray) for the "collectors." And since they changed the color/appearance of the new box, then the black one, (if they still ship it to those who pre-ordered them by the 21st of September deadline, would still be considered as "limited edition."
