I got my Green Terrace Teas order today. It was supposed to include extra samples, but there weren’t any. I emailed them, and their support responded immediately, and apparently there is now another package with samples on the way.

Are all orders supposed to have samples?

I just ordered a bunch samples but didn’t get any extra.

Oh, that is interesting! I didn’t get any extra samples either… It surprised me a little bit.

Cheri select said

I was specifically told mine would include samples. I was told I would get extras to make up for the fact that they ran out of the gongu clay pot that I ordered.

As I walked back in the house with the mail, I told my husband I was excited to see what was sent. It included only what I had ordered and no more. That was disappointing.

Aaah, that makes sense! And it must have been disappointing indeed :( I hope they have sent you plenty of nice samples to make up for the clay pot and for the disappointment!

The Tea Mearchant (actually opened the package today, i was away)
the pot didnt arrive;( it was cancelled because wasnt in stock. i got Wuyi oolong and White Coconut Blondie was free( thank you;) kinda disappointed. Teapot was the main reason i placed an order.

Aww, I remember you being excited about that pot too. :(

Steepster is the most wonderful place! I’ve met so many amazingly generous, sweet, and knowledgeable people to share my tea journey in the year and a half I have been hanging out here. Yesterday was just the most recent example of how special this place is, as I was gifted a beautiful box of mystery puerh samples! http://twitpic.com/eb2tu4 <3

Today was a good mail day.

I finally got my August Golden Tips Teas subscription. (And since I’m at home, sick, I was able to sign for the package.)

I got my order from The Tea Spot, although that got messed up and they sent Boulder Blues instead of Bolder Breakfast, but they’re fixing that right away.

A good mail day is happy day, enjoy cheri :-)

Gorgeous! :)

What a pretty set! Enjoy :-)

Hello!
I am a newbie here in Steepster. This set is absolutely gorgeous!! Could you please share where you purchased them from?? :)

cookies said

Sure, I got it from http://www.aliexpress.com/store/product/Two-cups-as-gift-Two-Piece-Pottery-Gaiwan-Bowl-with-Lid-for-Steeping-Tea-Peony-180ML/139386_1987874056.html

Just make sure you ask for the Lotus version, because there are three different ones on the same page. And it goes on sale quite often so I wouldn’t pay the $28.

The painting is gorgeous!

Thank you so much!! I really appreciate your heads up on not paying full price!! xx

boychik said

I have the same but blue and red fish. Love it. I have it more than a year. I got it fr Ebay, paid $15 for gaiwan. I use it everyday and maybe will buy same as you have. Gorgeous ! Enjoy!!!0

MzPriss said

Oh I have cups like this and I adore them. That is a beautiful gaiwan.

Very pretty. I’d not mind having all three. :)

cookies said

Just a heads up, it’s on sale now. Almost 50% off.

Cheri sent me some Whispering Pines samples.

And I also got lots of pu’erh samples.

Yay! Which WP samples did you get?

Jabberwocky, Cocoa Amore, and Arbor Mist.

Oh my!! You are in for a treat :-)

Nice! I have yet to try Cocoa Amore sadly.

I hadn’t actually gotten the mail, just the packages from the porch earlier. I also got tea from cookies

I got my DavidsTea order! Only ordered some of Snickerdoodle. But got a sample of the Maple tea, so I’m stoked about that!
Was really hoping for a sample of pumpkin chai since I hear so much about it but I’m scared to buy it…>< Didn’t get that one though >.> Oh well.

boychik said

I may send you some Pumpkin Chai. I plan to restock. Kids love it;)

Ost said

Seriously? That would be awesome! I just wanna try it, you can send like just a tsp. don’t want you to waste it on someone who might not like it. But that would be awesome!!
