Location: Melbourne CBD, Australia
Product condition: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Two months ago, I went present shopping, because one of my
friends’ birthday was coming up. Now,
this friend was a fan of the K-pop group, 2PM.
Unfortunately, the ONLY K-pop shop in Melbourne (Sunstar) shut down a
year ago, so I had to resort to Internet shopping. The first 2 places I visited were the
well-known sites, CDJapan and Yesasia. They
had decent prices for the album I was looking for (Go Crazy), but their
shipping prices were an additional $10 to $15 extra. The overall prices at these 2 places ended up
at a crazy price of around $48 to $50, so I continued surfing the
Internet. I came across various pages
and YouTube videos criticising the services of various venders. Some of the stores were either shutdown or louche.
After 2 to 3 hours of searching around
and watching videos, I found ‘That Kpop Shop’, a K-pop vendor situated in
Melbourne, Australia. It had quite a few good
reviews on its Facebook page, so I decided to give it a try. I am happy to say that they provided the album
in perfect condition! However, they've recently stopped their online ordering service and have opted to do pop-up stores every 2 months or when there is a big Kpop comeback.
The location of the pop-up store seems to change every time. The first time it was near RMIT and the upcoming one is going to be at Federation Square. For more details about the upcoming one head to: http://www.thatkpopshop.com/bts-special/
