Re: Interesting conversation with a retailer who formerly accepted Bitcoin

Specifically for nmteaco - I'm in Australia, and I'm reluctant to order because It's not obvious how the tea is packaged and whether it would get through customs.
(e.g are all ingredients labelled thoroughly so that customs doesn't classify some of it as unidentified seeds/plant material?)

We have never shipped to austraila before. But we do ship pretty regularly to New Zealand, the UK, and the ukraine (oddly enough).

Anyway, if there was some problem, you would not be responsible. Its not good business to charge people money for things they don't get!

Great! I'll try a small order and see if it gets through.

I'd make sure to check with Australia customs about tea specifically. They are nasty nasty down there when checking things coming in and have been known to charge significant fines when plant material was brought in. They are very strict and I've run into it a few times because my sister lives there. Being that you live there I'm sure you know all about it - but always best to verify before running head first into Auz customs there.

edit: Oops. My bad - I see you did check already. I hadn't read up a few posts yet.
