Description:
This swap is international and for swapping teabags. We did this first time in September 2006 and now itÂ´s time to celebrate the first anniversary of this swap :D Everyone sends at least 6 different teabags (not teaboxes) to 3 different partners and receives the same amount of teabags. This shouldnÂ´t be too expensive for people like me, who just canÂ´t afford sending tea mugs abroad, but would like to try new tea flavours :) Try to find some LOCAL teas if possible, so the partners receive something they havenÂ´t tried before!! Teabags are recommended but loose tea is also OK, if itÂ´s packed well. I will ban people, who have ratings under 4.5, sorry! There has been some participants, who didnÂ´t send their teas at all and this is so unfair for the others and IÂ´m getting a bit tired of cleaning up the mess they make. Please DO NOT sign up if you are not going to send anything!! And remember that itÂ´s NOT possible to cancel your participation after this swap has already started on 10th day. People without ratings can also join my tea swap, but ONLY if they havenÂ´t participated in more than 5 swaps. IÂ´ll check this when this swap starts and remove newbies, who have joined in 6 or more swaps. If you have any problems, feel free to contact me :) Anyway, happy swapping to everyone :) *NOTE -> If youÂ´re sending teabags to Australia, they should be in sealed teabags and the list of ingredients must be mentioned in the bag!

If it is not too late, would love to join this swap and it would be my first ever on Swap bot, it is so hard for newbies to start out. I have swapped internationally -yarn items with other knitters, but just one on one prearranged. I am a big tea drinker and do have a lot of specialty teas probably only found in my area where I live, and would love to share as well as try new teas. Melodie

I love this swap, I was so pleased from the last one! ^^ My only request from my partner is not too many fruit teas... I will drink some but not many. Whoever gets me as a partner this time around will be pleased because I just got a whole lot of new teas. ^__^

Hi!

There are still 2 no sends on this swapÂ´s member list, although I checked everyoneÂ´s ratings before assigning the partners :( I contacted both and asked them to send the teas as soon as possible...But their ratings are going down or they havenÂ´t logged in swap-bot since the day this swap started, so IÂ´m worried.

IÂ´m sorry about this :(
