Default Good source for Gaiwans,pots and pu-erhs

I just received a gong fu style glass set (pitcher, gaiwan, six tasting
cups, strainer) from this fellow in China through Ebay. He sells at
best offer and I really bid less than half the asking price. I also
ordered from tea flowers from him that have not arrived as yet. His
selection of teas is huge and he seems very reasonable since all his
items are "best offer". He also carries very lovely bamboo gung fu
trays.
His screen name on Ebay is "yunnansourcing".
Thought I'd shre this info since I was so pleased.

He's also very good for pu-erh teas and some of the more exotic teas from
China, though the mail from China can be somewhat erratic at times.

I know quite a few of you order from him. Do you make a "best offer" on tea?
We have prepared a large order to sample a selection of (his and her)
favorites.

TIA

No very often....I think if you offer below the wholesale price it probably
won't be accepted, so you need to be able to take a good guess as to what it
is if you want to do it.

Yunnan Sourcing, aka the ubiquitous "Scott", is very reliable and
provides some great teas. I've had some delightful young pu'er from
him, and two very satisfactory pots. Thoroughly recommended.
