Going "caffeine free"

I have 325 single packs of Twinings of London, English Breakfast Tea.

Went home and stocked up, only to come back and find out I'm going caffeine free.

PM me, or you can leave a contact number and I will be in touch.

I am asking 130.000 KRW this is what the price totals out to after the currecny conversion. I will have to ask that the buyer pays for shipping or if you are in near distance, I can meet you and deliver it to you. I will also throw in, at no charge 14 singls packs of Wedgewood English Breakfast Tea. (This I had before going on vacation). PM me, or leave me a contact number and I will be in touch! Thanks.

Price of decent breakfast tea at Lotte Dept store, 20 bags 18.000 KRW

sorry to kill your game but you can 100 bags of the ahmed english tea at the russian supermarket below kazakstan restaurant in dondaemoon for 7000won, your price is rediculous and so are the department stores.

Hahahahaha.. you're out of your mind. I can ask my mum to send me some from the UK for a fraction of that price.

And as the other poster said, you can buy decent tea now from HomePlus for a lot less.

Breakfast tea is shite. PG tips for life.

yeah, that's an unrealistic price. I'm sitting drinking Lipton Yellow Label as I type, its not great but it does the job, and its about 5000 for 50 from Emart

I too thought the price askew.

Might it not be better to parcel the swag into several nice sized packages and gift it all out to some friends and others who would appreciate it...?

KRW130,000 is a miniscule price to pay to generate what is likely to be a massive amount of goodwill.

Unless of course one were a tightwad, skinflint, cheapskate.

But how would I know that...? Anyway, it's just a thought.

How much for just six bags?

[killyridols]

you can buy these at Emart! I paid 6,500 won for a pack of 20 last year (Yongsan branch). Homeplus also does its own brand of tea: earl Grey x20 for 5,000 won.

Sorry to tell you this, but I live in Cheongju and the Home Plus here has Twinings Earl Grey, English Breakfast, and a couple of other types for 7,900 each.

I just saw it last week because I'm having a tea party on Children's Day, so I don't know how long they've had it. I actually bought the Earl Grey and I'm looking at it now...it has 25 bags in the box, net weight 50g.

I'm sure all of the other Home Plus stores will have it pretty soon, it seems like they're upgrading and getting a lot more imported goods lately.
