Mid 90's CNNP Ba-Zhong Red Mark Raw Tea Cake (half cake) - $55

Could probably use a few more years of rest before drinking too. Looks to be a bit more than half a cake too.

Early 80's Factory 1, HeiTeiSha Shui Ping 100ml - $262 (valued at $315)

Also selling my most expensive Yixing owned. This was one of the last pots purchased from Tony. The clay is HeiTeiSha, aka Hei Xing Tu. It is very dark brownish-black, with sand throughout. The clay on this one warrants the high price. So only asking for what I paid, taking the hit on shipping, and I'm throwing in a FREE Yixing pot with it (see pot listed after this).

Note, including doubles of some pictures as the different lighting allows you to see various attributes of the pot otherwise not seen.

MidLate 80s Factory 1, Zini Tall Si-Fang 100ml - Valued at $222, but giving away FREE with purchase of the pot above this one, the Early 80's Factory 1, HeiTeiSha Shui Ping 100ml.

I'm giving this one away merely as it made it's way back to me after letting someone borrow it. Note, there is some type of calcification or hardened clay in the top front two corners of the pot. The issue was there when I first lent it out. I can't determine if it worsened over time with use, so I don't feel comfortable selling it outright. However, I'd like to give it away with the most expensive pot listed above as a sweetener. This pot was noted as giving the best flavored water when testing out my original 14 or so pots purchased from Tony.

Why am I selling all this stuff? Honestly, I'm originally a coffee lover at heart. After all, I was a Barista at Starbucks in my former life. And after finding a vintage Revere Ware stovetop percolator, I start my morning with the sweet smell of coffee brewing on the stove. Then, I'll typically move on to sencha or an oolong for afternoon tea, always drinking grandpa-style at work. I would rather see the pots and teas go to a home where they'll get more use than just be sitting around here.

As mentioned in the new posting above, I've decided to take the hit on shipping, so I'm reducing previously listed items by $20 across the board. Please see a consolidated listing of everything below, along with updated prices:

I'm mainly lowering the price in order to start get this stuff moving faster, as it's a downtime for me through New Year's day. However, I won't be reducing prices any more than this. As always, please let me know if you have questions on any items. Thanks for taking the time to look!

Cheers,
Mike
