Alot of people in the US buy directly from Yunnan (China). Dragon tea House or Yunnan Sourcing (YSLLC) are popular

Though I have not bought from Nada Cha, others here have, and found it excellent. It is a UK site

Are both Dragon Tea House and YSLLC doing their trade within eBay?

yes -

Shipping is a little more than to US, but getting at the source is a good way to get decent tea at reasonable prices, especially, if you maximize shipping with several cakes.

Steve is being modest. He offers an extremely handy service for newcomers and hardcore maniacs alike that allows one to acquire many of the more common/popular "ebay vendor" selections at very attractive prices and, most importantly, without the wait.

If this sounds like a plug, I can assure you that I have no affiliation with him, other than being a satisfied customer.

I haven't had any dealings with David at Nadacha.

I was, however, treated well by Steve at the Badger and Blade.

I'm not the most patient of people and not having to wait 3 to 6 weeks for a SAL shipment made good experience even better.

I have to say thank you for all of you replied my question.

At the beginning I thought oolong is the very best until I try Puerh ...
