Nothing yet. Still have a few swaps incoming that could be here ANY DAY. :D

I also JUST rec’d an email from Teavana letting me know that my order had shipping, along with the tracking number. This is the same Teavana order that arrived last week. :P (It’s probably because I’m a Canadian customer and they were waiting for a Canadian tracking number. LOL)

Teavana really is something special. The same thing happened to me.

It isn’t just Canadian customers, the very same thing happened to me and I’m in the states.

I had the same thing happen to me. It was a HUGE problem, because UPS refuses to deliver to my apartment right now, and I would have called and had them change the shipping directions, but I couldn’t. They ended up sending it back to Teavana.

However, with that said, Teavana was actually pretty great about fixing the issue. I explained the situation, and they are sending the package back the day it was received to another address. (My parents’ address, since I know it will be ship there without issue, and I’ll be visiting soon.)

I was really mad about not getting the shipping information, but I’m less inclined to be angry since it was dealt with well and with a great deal of tact.

I’ve ordered from Teavana before, and never had such a weird delay (it was over three days between when I got the shipping information and when the package was actually sent) so I wonder what’s up. I’ll never order from them again short of an awesome sale.

My Rishi order came in! I’m excited to finally have some more serene dream, I’ve been out of it for months.

My Adagio order came in on Monday, but I’m really disappointed with it. I could tell there was a problem when I picked it up off my front porch and heard a clinking sound. I ordered a tasting set as well as a few samples and was really surprised to see that there was no bubble wrap to keep my tasting set from sliding around the huge box. No wonder it broke during shipping. I emailed Adagio first thing Monday morning and haven’t heard a peep from them, but at least I was able to easily print a return label.

I’ve never ordered anything except tea and pantry items from them.
