What's also retarded is that....to get into that mall to see the conference I heard to get a reserved space/seating to attend you need to spend over like 100 bucks or smthn on electronics at the mall to ensure a space to go....

i think this is what this guy is complaining about

"由太陽之歌起,我已經視YUI為我心中既偶像,好多人都話佢唔靚or唱歌唔好聽,但我對佢ge熱愛從來都無動搖過。由知道YUI會黎香港開演唱會,到知道我買得到$780既飛,再知道YUI五月十五號會去青衣城﹗呢一排你知唔知我幾興奮幾期待?但原來一切ge苦等只換來$500先可以入場搵YUI,你知唔知我心靈受到幾大創傷?以後我睇親YUI出既FUNCTION,我都會不自覺諗起要用咁多錢先可以入到場睇佢,你知唔知咁樣會有心理陰影架?我心中既偶像就咁幻滅啦﹗!
我啲唔識YUI既朋友都話我痴左線,但我好冷靜好清醒 ─ 有錢嘅人係唔會明白呢種感受架﹗青衣城,我真係好嬲呀﹗﹗"

It seems I've missed out on the signed DVD (spend 1500HKD and only 25 available). I got a ticket with a limited edition guitar pick for spending 800HKD.

THAT'S SUCH BULLOCKS ...THIS COSTS MORE THAN THE CONCERT TICKET...shame on you Sony HK ...shame!!

seriously...i thought sony jp sucks with their limitations but WOW Sony HK you are sneaky ...i mean i UNDERSTAND you need to make some money but doing this to get people to spend money at that mall like this...that really does not IMPRESS ME! So financially opportunistic....such jerks! JUST RIDICULOUS!

imagine all the fans who can't afford to even just go the concert and this was the only opportunity to just see YUI ! this is super unfair to so many YUI fans...

me raging comments on the YUI video: https://www.facebook.com/video/video.php?v=10150195624312893&oid=100921436827&comments

i said

"So I heard you have to spend like over a certain amount of money on electronics using your credit card/octopus card in that mall to ensure a space to attend that conference...i mean i guess that's smart to limit the number of people going but..that really is unfair for fans who just can't afford to spend money like that. this really would've been a chance for those who aren't able to afford to go to the concert who just want to meet and see their favorite japanese artist...

...how the hell does this $1500 HKD contest for the signed DVD cost more than a concert ticket...i am not impressed and i'm sure YUI has nothing to do with these contest rules. I wonder if YUI even knows about this......How IRONIC this 25 limited ticket $1500 HKD ticket that can only be spent on electronics is enraging. This money should be spent on DONATIONS to the Japan relief disaster as this concert was said to have its concert goods donate to the tsunami/earthquake relief"

You can get a ticket for the reserved area by spending money inside the mall on most products (not just electronics). You can redeem a ticket for spending over 500HKD. If you spend over 800HKD, you get to redeem a ticket as well as a limited edition guitar pick.

The money wouldn't go directly to Sony as you are just buying products from shops.

I think you could still get to see YUI from a distance if you don't get a ticket.

Wow and there I thought Sony nice being nice to those that can't afford to go to the concert by holding a public event but I guess I was completely wrong and very, very disappointed with Sony. I agree with gotchi, this is just ridiculous!!!!
You know what I'm kind of happy that I won't be able to go cause I am not going to give my money to them like that, they don't deserve it. This makes me angry >:/

Seriously eff Sony HK - my cousin tells me they've been doing this type of money mongering methods on a lot of international artists...well not just Sony HK ...hong kong music industry in general cos theirs is doing so poorly..they're just located in a great place and has a culture that is more tolerable in accepting different ideas/cultures....so they'd just bank on all these foreign artists

cyclo and fellow YL who are going to the concert:

i think we should write another letter from YUI-Lover to YUI …to request a formal fan meeting for INTERNATIONAL fans only to present to her a letter to show the $300 donation from the raffle. We need to directly contact them, maybe even through email since we kind of have an email address we can send to. And we can maybe pester some e.u.band members who read some of our comments and maybe even call the company directly or email Yuusuke directly that we would like to have a private international fan meeting for us to meet YUI and e.u. band members to present our raffle fund donation to them. There are at least 25 of us going to attend and it would be great if we could meet them the day after the concert of earlier in the day prior to the concert

just after chatting a bit

we need to make sure this letter we compose ...emphasizes the idea that we'd like to PRESENT this to her and not present the letter as if we're bragging "oh look we raised $300 we're awesome so meet us" kind of attitude. We need to be humble, and just honest and how this raffle was created way before we knew of the concert itself!

maybe it's time to open up a google doc again

Hey Chaz, is/was there a time limit on when the money is spent? You say you already got the ticket....were there limited numbers available or anytime up to the date of YUI's appearance?

YUI + guitar = <3

i don't think its THAT bad, but spending that amount is really O.O

then again, most shopping malls here in Singapore have similar schemes as well - spend above $100 and get a lucky draw or something. but in this case the lucky draw is just the icing on the cake, an add-on to whatever you bought. the thing for YUI is people are gonna spend that amount for stuff they probably won't need (if they're rich enough) just to get close to her. if she learns of it i think she'll feel really bad, especially since most of her fans are probably not old enough to have income.

but it might not entirely be Sony's fault though, it could be stated under the terms and conditions of the shopping mall in return for providing the venue for the event.

personally i feel its better if Sony HK sold such "tickets" in the form of buying her albums and posters. i went to the SCANDAL concert in HK last year and they offered handshakes and an autographed postcard for people who pre-ordered their album on the spot. no limits to the number of people either, as long as you ordered, you got the handshake

Mall's revenues

(1,500 x 25) + (800 x 160) + (500 x 400) = 365,500HKD

I read the post in homepage of 4rum , quite sad ..... because it was true...
Really hope that YUI knows this news ....she is not a dondey anymore for sony to control !
What will she think if she knows? But even YUI knows, I dont think she can do something to change this case .

and hope that this time will be the last time to have this ridiculous thing for YUI's LIVEs
