This is an awesome idea!

Oh no, I went to sign up and the website opened initially, but now I’m getting an internal server error.

Hi Courtney, sorry, I completely broke my site right after I posted this. It’s back up now! _

Courtney said

Haha yes, I signed up last night. :) Thanks!

Alrighty, so I’m looking to swap some teas that I’m not a fan of or have too much of right now. I haven’t weighed anything officially but I have a scale if you are concerned regarding preciseness. I’ve done a number of swaps already on here. All items were bought by me and stored in a dark cabinet. I only got into tea this past July, so nothing is older than that.

I have a pretty lengthy wishlist and am up for just about anything, though I would love some more Davidstea Pumpkin Chai if anyone is willing and I wouldn’t say no to some more Davidstea Stormy Night!

Davidstea The Skinny (can swap up to 4oz)
Davidstea Red Velvet Cake (can swap up to 1oz)
Davidstea Read My Lips (can swap up to 4oz)
Davidstea Early Grey Oolong (can swap up to 4oz)
Davidstea Tangerine Dream (can swap up to 4oz)
Davidstea Paradise Found (can swap up to 4oz)
Davidstea Indian Summer (can swap up to 4oz)

Tealux Strawberry Splash – green (would swap entire bag, just under 100 grams)
Tealux Rooibos Vanilla (can swap up to 2oz)
Tealux Berry Picking Delight (sealed 100 gram bag)

Teavana Kamiya Papaya Oolong (would swap all, just over 2oz – I bought 4oz and made a few samples so this is a conservative estimate)
Teavana Chateau Blanc (would swap all, just over 2oz – likewise as above)

The Tea Spot Blue Mountain Nilgiri (sealed 2.4oz tin)
The Tea Spot Organic Monkey Picked White (1.2oz tin – 4 samples removed)

The Tao of Tea 500 Mile Chai (can swap up to 4oz)
The Tao of Tea Red Bush Chai (can swap up to 4oz)

i’d like to swap for davidstea indian summer.. i haven’t had it in awhile and i remember i liked it a lot!! … PM me!

Hi if interested in a swap I am interested red velvet cake . Please see my cupboard.

Jeweled, I am a tea newbie and wanted to try some different ones. Want to take a look at my cupboard and do a swap? I have the Teavana Spiced Apple Cider and the Pumpkin Spice Brulee about 4 ounces each minus a couple teaspoons if you wanted to try.

I have an almost full pouch of 52Teas’s Candy Corn Black Tea, only had enough for a cup. I would love to trade for one of their flavored green teas…or anything else in my shopping list :)

ohhh i haven’t tried this and i’d love to .. i’m gonna take a look at your shopping list!

Awesome! fair warning, it is rather huge :P

lol i have lots of alpine punch… was there any other davids ones you were after? … i have one at home (like home in ontario) but i can’t remember if its toasted marshmallow or cookie dough.. i feel like its cookie dough though unfortunately.

I am pretty much willing to try anything from David’s since they rarely disappoint me. So yeah, other than Kanpe (it was the only one of their’s I didn’t like) I would be willing to trade for anything from them.

lol, in that case, I have tons I could trade!

Awesome! I tossed a few (like 20) ones that sound the most interesting to me (Turns out I never added my wishlist from Davids to steepster..oops) how about a surprise? Just PM your address and I can have the tea out this week.

I’ve placed 5 orders so far this month, and I think it’s high time I place a few more teas for swap that I really don’t reach for often enough. I’d prefer to do as few swaps as possible just for shipping cost purposes.

Butiki:
Organic Decaf Korakundah ~12g
Vanilla Frosted Carrot Cake ~20g

Simpson & Vail:
Apple Cinnamon Coffeecake ~9g

I love to get some White Rhino from Butiki if anyone isn’t loving theirs. :)

Absolutely MirandaGou! Did you want me to hold them for you until we had planned to next swap?

I have a sample Adagio’s Earl Grey Moonlight that I’d like to swap for any Indian straight tea or blend. It’s their standard 23g sample -1 tsp.

I am interested, but I am not sure I have what you are looking for in return. Can you take a look at my cupboard and see if there is anything you are interested in?

AnnaEA select said

TeaTiff, I’d be interested in the Tiger Assam , and also the Lychee Rose,, if either of those would work for you.

AnnaAE I will send you a PM.

Courtney said

Looking closer, I see the email at the top because it was sent to my partner as well. Phew. Silly me. Thanks Miranda!

i have waaay more lapsang souchong than i can drink, from a coworker who goes to China every year. this was purchased late fall 2013 and there is very little English on the packaging so i can’t read the name of the company – all i can make out is “Zhong Guo Wu Yi Shan” on the box and “Zheng Shan Xiao Zhong” on each portion. each of the 15 portions of loose-leaf teas are individually wrapped and probably good for many re-brewings.

also have many loose-leaf servings The Tao of Tea “Organic Topaz Puer” to trade (purchased about 2 months ago.)

Maybe I’m reading this wrong and you already know this, but I believe that Zhong Guo Wu Yi shan is just a place in china. Zhong Guo means china, and wu yi shan is the city.

ok, i totally forgot about that. thanks

I’m interested in the Oolong Ti Dung & Yu Lu Yan Cha Black. Take a look at my cupboard to see if there’s anything you’d want to swap for!
