Heureux de l'entendre, olivierco! If you place an order by 12.30 CET, it 's dispatched the same day :wink:

A bientot!

That doesn't seem very fast ... Is that shipped from USA or Europe? Maybe I'm just getting spoiled by the (expensive) 2-3 day shipping from Japan.

Sal, I think you are spoiled. 6 days from ordering seems pretty good as long as it doesn't go out the day you order (then 6 days is a little slow maybe).

Maybe so. Between the lightning fast Japanese delivery and US Priority mail I have become jaded.

Course there's always the four to twelve week delivery time from southwest China! That sort of balances things out.

It takes me 6 days to get my Den's orders and that is in the continental US.

I ordered a monday night, I received it the next monday morning. It was sent airmail (not express) from UK to France: usually I receive parcels from UK between 5 and 10 days.

Salsero - you are spoiled indeed :roll:

Delivery times to Europe vary a lot. Transit times are usually 2 days (so 3 days from dispatch), but they vary depending on local postal services. That said, La Poste (French national postal service) hasn't lost a single letter for me for 6 years I've lived in France :wink:

Heh, I think I tend to be rather spoiled too. I'm used to 1-2 day shipping times. Average for me is probably 2.5 days or so. I've had scary fast shipping times like order one afternoon here the next morning, and that's not ordering overnight either...

We are sticking with the current selection for now, but we will try to expand the loose tea offer in the future 8)

I sent some tea to Norway and customs took a few of them.. Not allowed in country they said and they didn't send back either..
It was a year or two ago can't remember exactly but I believe one had orange peel in it?

hmmm what does customs overseas do with teas the confiscate?
