Description:

I love trying different teas from all over the world and I also like to discover new tastes. Therefore, I’m making this swap international, with the exclusion of Australia. They have too many mail restrictions (sorry…). Feel free to start your own Aussie version.

For this swap, you will have only one partner, but there will be a challenge. You will send 4 tea bags. There is two conditions. First, all the tea bags must be different flavours. Second, please try not to send a flavour that your partner mentions in her profile dislikes (if any). No loose tea leaves or tea bags unwrapped. Please send sealed packaged teas.

If this swap goes well, it could be the first of a series, so keep your eyes open.

Please, don’t forget and put your swap-bot username and the name of the swap on the note inside.

Ratings: · Please rate your partner as soon as package is received;

· 5s should be given out based on whether the package meets the swap requirements, NOT whether you like it or not;

· Hearts could be given out to those who do an excellent job, or who go above and beyond (ex: profile surprise).

Requirements: · You must have a rating of 4.8+ with no recent no sends;

· No unexplained 1's or 3's or you will be banned;

· Newbies allowed with 2 rated mailed swaps and a WELL filled out profile.

I will check profiles before assigning partners and I will ban anyone who seems fishy. I might sound harsh but I’m trying to avoid unpleasant experience. If any questions or comments, please don’t hesitate to PM me (communication is the key).

This swap is meant to be fun, so PLEASE no flakers. Should there be any, I will Angel if necessary.

I would like to send some "Greek" tea but most of it comes loose!?

Lilian 06/ 1/2009 #

Yay, hi partners! just see my profile to know what i love ^___^ Thanks!

Toupti 06/ 2/2009 #

@texydeb once partners are assigned, check with your partner if it's fine. I know that in Canada, it could be stopped by customs, that's one of the reasons I prefer not to receive any.

I like all kinds of herbals and green teas.. pregnant for the time being so caff. free if possible, if not, I will deliver in the next 7 weeks!! YAY! I hope this turns out fabulous, I was flaked my last tea swap :(

Toupti 06/ 2/2009 #

@MegADiva good luck with the pregnancy and delivery. I'm sorry to hear that you were flaked on in your last swap. Please, if it happens again to you for this swap, let me know, I will angel.

inezandmarc 06/ 3/2009 #

@MegADiva Your package is on it's way. I redid your last package when I saw you wanted NO caffeine. Here I see you say caffeine is okay because you deliver soon, so hopefully you can enjoy all of the teas I mailed you as well as the extra fun stuff.

I am not a flaker, and I am sorry you've had to wait, but I did not anticipate being hospitalized when I went to LA for my graduation. I did my best to let you know what was going on. I'm sorry I was unable to communicate more. I have time to write to you today (you'll also see that I already messaged you once today) because I'm home sick again from work.

I don't have any ratings yet, but I have so much tea I would love to share! Please Please Pleassseeeee let me join. :)

renees 06/ 4/2009 #

i love tea, don't mind loose! love all kinds, mint is one of my favorite smells/tastes but anything is fine, except for anything like black licorice.

Hollyvia 06/ 4/2009 #

Love all kind of teas :)

Toupti 06/ 4/2009 #

@madeyebeckie I will let you join since you seem so interrested. However, if possible, it would be great if you could add a bit more details in your profile.

JoyAnne 06/ 4/2009 #

No Green tea or loose tea please.

please no green tea

MegADiva 06/11/2009 #

@inezandmarc You have told me several times that this package is in the mail and we live two cities away from eachother :/ so it's either lost in the mail or you didn't send. Unfortunately I will keep you on my flaker list until I receive. Others have to be notified when things like this happen, it's not fair to them or me :(
