Taiwan Da cheng Bao
Although the record company started off with the attitude of giving back to the fans, so they gave out gifts with the artists' albums, releasing limited editions of the ablums. By taking advantage of the fans intentions to collect these limited items, they coaxed fans into buying these items. For example, Vic Chou and Ah Du's fans are among those who have been victims, in order to obtain these collectible items from their idols, they had to spend large amounts of money.
Vic's limited edition album includes pyjamas, up to now, it has been auctioning online, starting from 400 dollars, it has now risen to 10 thousand dollars. There have been fans who were unfortunate and were not able to get this limited edition, and therefore had to resort to buying it from online auctions. Seeing this, some people took advantage of these dedicated fans, went out and bought Vic's limited edition album, and used it to their own advantage by auctioning it online at high prices. The scary thing is that fans were willing to buy the limited edition even though the price reached 10 thousand Taiwan dollars. Up to now, the only thing that Sony has been able to do is tell fans not to spend such large sums of money on buying the collectibles, and stated that in the future, they will release another edition with other collectibles, and that they will have another chance to buy it then.
