@VGDBlue

Your submission has been put on hold.

Type: new album

Reason: The prices on all of these Λucifer albums are wrong.

In almost all cases, you can find the album on CDJapan, which will list the base price, and the price with 2024 tax. You can get the right number by taking the base price, and multiplying by the numbers below, based on the date of the album release.

Quote:
4-1 1989 - Apr 3% -- 1.03
4-1 1997 - Apr 5% -- 1.05
4-1 2014 - Apr 8% -- 1.08
10-1 2019 - Oct 10% -- 1.10
So, for this album, you would take the 971yen price, multiply by 1.05 because the price was 5% in 1999, and use that number as the price. In this case, you will have to round it up a little bit. Most of the albums you submit seem to fall in the 5% tax range, so that is what you will use more often.

I would also really appreciate if you could start adding a couple of links to the album pages for the "Available at" section. Typically tower, CDJapan, and PlayAsia are good for these. If they are currently out-of-print, but still have a page, there is a checkbox for that. The moderation load has been pretty heavy this year, so I need frequent submitters (and you are the 4th-highest new album submitter during the last 30 days) to take on more of the work in making complete album pages.

If you have any questions, or need help with either of these, you are always welcome to ask someone in the discord.

Usually, I would have the prices imprinted to help me out but there were no such thing for these.

I'm not the greatest at maths, so this complicate things further. But to link CDJapan to these, I get you.

@Secret Squirrel

They all have the same base price, so they pretty much have the same price with the 5% tax.

Done.

Thanks for fixing those. The prices are correct now.
