Returns & Refunds
Refunds can not be issued for tea or other teaware items that have already been used. Unused teaware may be returned for a refund within 10 days of receipt, provided there is a valid reason for return. In this cases the buyer must cover the cost of return shipping. Refunds will be processed upon receipt less shipping and a 30% restocking fee.
Teas and teaware will be packed as safely and effectively as possible to ensure safe arrival. Orders that contain breakable teaware are packed using plenty of padding and extra durable 5 ply cardboard boxes. Even with these precautions taken, breakage can still occur when mailing ceramics and glassware across continents. If a received product is found to be damaged, incorrect, or significantly different than described in the listing, please contact us within 48 hours of receiving the package and we will resolve the situation ASAP by way of either a replacement (depending on availability) or refund at no cost to the buyer. While we take issues regarding subjective defects (smell/taste of teaware) seriously and will investigate, refunds or replacements are provided at our discretion. Please see about our teaware for additional information about our selection process and standards.
Wholesale & Sourcing
While we do not provide wholesale pricing our most of existing lineup of teas, we do provide sourcing services for Spring and Fall teas based on the needs of businesses. For more information, please contact us and indicate any relevant details regarding the tea you would like sourced.
Select teaware items are also available for wholesale purchase, however, many items in our catalogue are one of a kind or limited in stock. Please indicate which specific items are of interest and we can provide more information. We also offer wholesale pricing on custom ordered Jianshui teaware.
