my iu merchs diary : a thread 
- it's not really special but I just want to share some stories of my merchs
GOOD DAY. My very first iu album. I still don't know the difference between jp & kr releases. It just happened that that album will be released soon when I searched for iu albums on fb. And I'm thankful I was not scammed on my first online transaction.
MODERN TIMES special edition. I ordered this as a reward for myself if ever I pass the comprehensive exam(to stay in my course) or something to console me if ever I fail.
Fortunately, I passed and it came a day after the results was released.

FLOWER BOOKMARK LP. When I pre-ordered this, I have no idea what lp/vinyl is. I thought it's just another special edition album like in modern times so I was really surprised how huge it is
REAL FANTASY CON DVD. My mom accompanied me to trinoma to claim this and she even had a small talk with ate seller and her mom.
Labyu ma! 
P.S. She only accompanied me. I never asked my parents to pay for my merchs. I save it from my allowance.

IU ALBUMS. The delivery attempts failed twice already and when I contacted xend, they asked me to claim it on their office at shaw instead. As a newbie in metro manila, I had no choice but to ask my mom to accompany me.
She even told me, "last mo na yan ha."

2016 SG. I have no plans on collecting season's greetings but I made a bet with myself that I'll buy if it includes a diary. You can guess what happened next.
Yes, it didn't end there. I looked for the past releases as well.

TW OST ALBUMS. My only goal was to find Smash Hits 1 during my trip in taiwan but ended up buying tw versions of Scarlet Heart Ryeo and The Producers instead.
And I was lucky enough to have 2 SHR posters as well but didn't find SH1.

2012 SG. I saw this on the posted random pics of 2016 KCon. The next year, I attended 2017 KCon hoping it's still there. I don't know the name of the store so I look on all the stalls there and found it in the first stall near the entrance which I neglected at first.
EPILOGUE. It was released not long after I bought MT special ed. I still can't afford to pre-order until it was sold out. I think the heavens helped me when my suki posted an onhand after few months and I got it.
2015 ICYEMFA. I got addicted to Leon that I've watched the performance video for who knows how many times. I can't find any pre-order from local sellers so I just asked another suki if her supplier have it.
FLOWER BOOKMARK 2. I said to myself I'll quit on collecting merch so I didn't pre-ordered one. But my suki has onhand with 2 posters and her stall is along the way to the tricycle parking.
LS VER 1 & PALETTE HOODIE. I originally want the powerbank but it's not available due to shipping issue so I just availed a ls instead. Sa hoodie, ang galing po mang-salestalk ni @ShawingSwag!!! 



GROUP OF 20. I got it from Kcon 2017 as well. It's a very special album wherein many artists collaborated including IU.
THE PRODUCERS AND YTBLSS OST. After I completed collecting regular albums, I started collecting ost albums.
MY MISTER OST. I bought this before I watched the series.
At first, I have no plans on watching it. Little did I know it will be my fave. I've never re-watched any kdrama but My Mister became the only exception. I never imagined that it would hurt me more than SHR.

LAST FANTASY limited edition. I was having a merch talk with a friend when she sent pics and asked me to confirm if it was what I was looking for. She's a collector of another group so she sold it to me at a fair price.
LOVE POEM. My first online purchase from a kr site. I ordered 2 hoping to get the random inclusions at once or just trade it later if not. Luckily, lady luck might have blessed me again for getting the 2 variants.

REAL special edition. My ultimate rupok purchase. Never again. Lol. 
I really want it so bad so I had to close my eyes and mind when I checked out from ebay. It's the last kr album I need to complete my collection.
