TNG Ocarinas (Click English on the tabs for English Language[DUR].) Very cool colors that STL doesn't sell and the triples and doubles actually have all the non covering holes on the bottom and on the side so its easier to hold w/o checking if ur holding it wrong. I also have their Alto C pendant and Soprano C mini purple clay.

This is the Chinese dealer for TNG ocarina. He is actually able to sell TNG ocarinas to overseas except USA (since that is STL territory where TNG is concerned). He is having problems setting up the payment system for overseas customers though. Trying to get him to set up Paypals. I do keep in touch with him a little over msn, but he's not online much. Prices are pretty good, but I haven't bought from him yet. admin note: I'm not sure why this topic was made in the American Ocarinas section.. I'll move it to Asian ocarinas, but if you have reasons why you want to keep it in American ocarinas, do tell me and I could move it back.

Mucho thanks Gaspo- oops, I mean Demaul! :angel: *heads off to ogle the purdy ocs* [EDIT] Okay so been looking around the site, and *really* want this: Spoiler: click to toggle but there's no price, no order buttons, and when you click on shopping cart a window with weird code in it comes up. Anyone know how to order from these guys? |

Well I sent them an email, though whether it got through or not I don't know.....If anyone can help out that would be great! Been meaning to get an alto/sop similar to my (*cough* STL) tenor...and I guess you dont get any more similar than this!
 Plus the decoration is AWESOME. Hopefully they're not too expensive, since STL's weren't *too* pricey and these are coming direct from the manufacturer
And then we have somewhere *else* to order WPN/TNGs from......If I can order this oc, it'll be my end of college-coursework-treat to myself until I can save up for my maparam *skips with glee* :wub: :wub: Purdy Sakura ocarina!!!!!!!!!!! |

TNG China are not actually the manufacturer of the ocarinas. The manufacturer is located in Taiwan if I am not mistaken, and TNG China are just a distributor like STL. |

I'm positive the prices will be lower than STL's. In fact, the guy who runs that Chinese website and I have talked about the exact topic before, and how some of STL's prices are way too high (especially the Double/Triples and "purple" clay). Might I warn you, his English is not great :XD: I'll talk to him next I see him online. |

Kissing I'm rather tied up with my leadership conference at the moment, but could you also ask him to put in a clearer link to an online shop? I navigated through mounds of links and still didn't find it. ><" |

Okay, so I finally got my reply, but due to the language limitations herenot sure how helpful it'll be....: HI I'm sorry for your word later.I'm sorry i only know a little enlish. I will give you a ocarina price list.shipping cost to the UK:1KG=$53 ups. You can use the credit card payment to us for ocarina. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- So I'm guessing that's $53 (£26) Uk shipping. Does he mean payment through email? Is it safe to be emailing credit card details? He didn't make any mention of paypal. Here's the price list. Look how AMAZINGLY CHEAP those purple clays are!!! STL are totally riPping people off! HAND PAINTED 12H SOP C (MULTI) $13 PLAIN 12H SOP C (RED, YELLOW, GREEN ,PURPLE, BLUE) $12 12H SOP F (BROWN) $15 12H SOP G (BROWN) $15 12 H SOP C (BROWN) $13 12H ALTO C (HANDPAINTED) $17 12H ALTO C (RED, YELLOW, PURPLE GREEN BLUE) $15 12H ALTO C (BROWN) $17 12H ALTO C BLUE TACY-001 ('ENIGMA') $21 12H SOP C MINI PURPLE CLAY $12 12H SOP G PURPLE CLAY $26 12 SOP F PURPLE CLAY $31 12H SOP C PURPLE CLAY $35 12 ALTO F PURPLE CLAY $95 12H ALTO G PURPLE CLAY $95 12H ALTO C PURPLE CLAY $47 ALTO C DOUBLE (GREEN BLUE YELLOW) $40 ALTO C TRIPLE (GREEN BLUE YELLOW) $100 PURPLE CLAY TRIPLE $255 6H ALTO C PLASTIC PENDANT (RED, YELLOW, GREEN, BLUE WHITE BROWN GREY PINK) $3 6H SOP C PLASTIC PENDANT TPSC-601 (SAME COLOURS) $2 6H SOP F CERAMIC PENDANT TSF-601(HAND PAINTED) $7 6H SOP G CERAMIC PENDANT TSG-601(HAND PAINTED) $6.5 6H SOP C CERAMIC PENDANT TSC-601 (HAND PAINTED) $6 6H ALTO C CERAMIC PENDANT TAC-601(HAND PAINTED) $8 6H SOP F CERAMIC PENDANT TSF-601(RED YELLOW GREEN PURPLE BLUE) $6.5 6H SOP G TSG-601(RED YELLOW GREEN PURPLE BLUE) $6 6H SOP C CERAMIC PENDANT TCS-601(RED YELLOW GREEN PURPLE BLUE) $5 6H ALTO C CERAMIC (RED YELLOW GREEN PURPLE BLUE) $8 |

gaaaah now all the links to the site don't work so I can't match the ocs to the prices.. Also Sazzafraz, seeing as he says 1 kilo is $53, I think the shipping will be less than $53, as the ocs don't way anywhere near a kilo... Still pretty vague though >< |

An ocarina is definitely lighter than one kilo, but I think he might have to charge $53 for shipping as that would be the lowest starting mailing unit. Those are some really low prices O_O, I'm liking STL less and less. |

Well lets hope so on the shipping. I've emailed him back to ask about paypal via email as well
I cant access the site at all now either, let's hope it's just temporary |

I don't think he'll charge that much for shipping (hopefully!!) Let's clarify the exact policy on shipping once more - it simply doesn't make sense that he's restricted to shipping at that price :wacko: |

When he gets back to me about the PayPal question (at this rate prob sometime next week!) I'll ask for an estimate on shipping for the Alto and Soprano, and see what he says
I really wish his english was better though....this could be a difficult and epic Ocarina Quest! But I *SHALL* have my sakura ocarinas, come hell or high water!

Once you finally get it methinks you'll disappear for a long time, being in your own world with the sakura ocarina.
I don't remember much about international shipping, so I won't keep conjecturing. I'm probably wrong. ><" |

I doubt it'd cost $53 to ship a single soprano ocarina in a box... And maybe the site is down because of the issue with people confusing them for the actual makers? Wasn't there a whole discussion about how they were actually just distributors and not the makers? I hope their site gets back up though, I'd
love to shop around xD Affordable ocarinas for everyone!! Yay
At those prices pretty much everything is affordable! Even the doubles are just 40 dollars! And the purple clay tenor c just 47! Not to mention the triple purple clay at half the price
I wonder how STL would respond to the competition... If everyone outside the US ordered from there now they'd probably lose a lot of customers... Maybe they'd lower their prices? |

Sue our asses for what? I think Shadowyi meant that STL would go on a smear campaign against TNG, not us go on a smear campaign against STL xD We wouldn't be doing anything illegal buying from there
long as you don't live in the us, but I don't think YOU would be doing anything illegal if you did. I think TNG would.

Haha yes, Rintintin is right. (DeepRed you failed to correctly interpret my meaning! Oh noes!!  I feel that if that happened, STL would go on a smear campaign of TNG, TON, and individual members who piss them off.

What are they gonna smear us with? Besides, what would happen, we'd sell less ocarinas? We don't sell any! Besides, it's just business, if someone sells the same ocs for cheaper, of course they'd get them there! |
