[nanakopy87]

free shipping?
i think its not free shipping.but they waived service fee.you still need to pay for shipping fee

[ownsarai]

^Oh I see. OK then I read it wrong or someone worded it wrong because a few posts above says free shipping. I don't know. I'm just glad I got my shirt and was able to help out.

[nanakopy87]

it's

We are now offering free service charge for earthquake/tsunami charity.

but it do help alot for those who bought several pieces of t-shirt (like me)

[ownsarai]

Yep, leave to me to read it wrong. Oh well. Not too worried about it then.

I still quite confused about Noppin. How much different amount of money compared to Tenso??

[ayuuk]

^The main difference between Tenso and Noppin:
Tenso: you have to order by yourself. Just that at check-out page you fill in your Tenso address, then the items will be shipped to Tenso's warehouse. You will be asked to pay service fee (490yen min.) + EMS fee, and after that your items will be shipped to you.

Noppin: you have to send messages to its staff through "contact board" and wait for quotation. Then maybe you have to pay for the items first (I am not completely sure) and they will order on your behalf (with 1,000yen plus 10% for service fee). When items arrive at Noppin's warehouse, you will be asked to pay shipping (you can inform them whether you want it shipped by EMS, airmail, etc), and after that your items will be shipped to you.

I think Noppin is good when you want to buy multiple items in a wide range of time. They hold your stuff for up to 60 days (much longer than Tenso's 14 days), so you can always buy something more within that time, and eventually combine them in one shipment. Tenso makes me feel more independent, though, because you can just order at mu-mo, Amazon, and many other shops by yourself (no need to send messages and wait for quotation). And the service fee (490yen, 980yen and so on) is based on the weight of the package, not its value. So like CDs or ayupans, which are relatively light but worth a lot (one JPN album is 3990yen), it would be cheaper to use Tenso imo. EMS looks pricey, but it is very reliable and fast. I usually get items within 2 days.

^ Oh thanks I think I got it

[withoutDREAM]

YES~!
My friend and I have bought 5~~~

[LacusClyne]

yeah, and the good part i like about noppin is you don't have to worry about ordering the wrong stuff or not understanding what is on the site, especially if you don't really understand japanese. You can ask noppin, through the message board and they will help you, and they accept paypal.

[aavis]

i bought the one

[Heldin]

I'm going to order one via tenso. I want to help.

[xLuna&1LOVE]

Oh, and I just see that now? O_______o

Must have one. I would like to support Japan in any way, and especially if it is related to Ayu

I also ordered through noppin, it´s really great that they don´t charge service fees, that saves us 5000 Yen or so, as I made a mass order for my German Ayu Forum, we ordered 32 shirts xD
too bad we have to wait so long now, XL shirts changed shipout date to 24th May xD

[AyuGAME]

That's a lot of shirts! But that is really great!
But...they changed when they will be shipped again? >.< I ordered ONE XL shirt.

[~angel*ayumi~]

Jup i think that´s because they have so many orders that they need so long for the production.
Alltough I also whould mlike to have my shirt like... now xD that is a really good sign, that means much help/money for the earthquake/tsunami victims ^^

[nanakopy87]

i believe that those who ordered the tee early will receive the tee early.i see that the shipping date is changing everyday.today,they will said they ship the tee out on 25 May(example) tomorrow,they will change the shipping date to 26 May (example)

AAUUUGGHH. Okay, I have been trying for SO long to order this shirt. Apperantly I don't know what number to put in for my tenso address??? Everything I enter gives me an error .... I just don't know what I am doing wrong!

I am trying noppin right now ... but I simply can't figure out how that works at all. Any tips?

Edit:
Here is image .. the part that says TSetcetc I think is what I keep messing up... I've tried every combination of the number and the address and everything else I can think of, but the whole line just plain doesn't fit in the box!

Edit2: NEVERMIND! Noppin got back to me and my shirt is ordered ... still no idea what I was doing wrong with Tenso but oh well YAY SHIRT

[TeamAyu2004]

Wait.. have they changed the ship out date for the tshirts from April to may??
