Upcoming Dammann Freres group order

I’ll make this easier for group ordering purposes:

I will commit to 25g of any oolong that is purchased.

Edit
If anyone else is interested in these I would like 25g of:
Atomic Lemon Bio
The des Marquises
&
Lapsand Souchong Crocodile

On top of 25g of all/any oolongs purchased

How exciting! Thank you for coordinating this, Marzipan! I can’t resist such an opportunity…

Pu-erh Guormand 50g+
Bourbon (!) 50g+
Oolong Caramel au Beurre Sale 50g+
Charlotte aux Fruits 25g or 50g max

Two side notes:

I have been looking online to find information about customs limits and fees. I can’t find much so I will put an inquiry into the USPS before placing the order so there are no surprises

I’ll also start collating posts here in a few days.

Try as I might I cannot turn down such a wonderful opportunity. Thank you so much MARZIPAN; your kindness continues to astound me. :)

Temple d’Angkor 25g, 50g, 100g (ANY AMOUNT)
Havana / Havanita 25g, 50g, 100g (ANY AMOUNT)
Bougainville 25g, 50g max
Noël en Provence 25g, 50g max
Coquelicot Gourmand 25g, 50g preferred but would consider more if necessary
Charlotte aux Fruits 25g, 50g preferred but would consider more if necessary

I am really thinking of joining this group order and will hopefully send you a pm tonight. But, if you know, about how much is a Euro in Dollars? Is it about 1.25 dollars per Euro or so? All their prices are in Euros.

Cheju do oolong- 25, 50

Jeoncha Céleste, 25, 50

Just a minor update on this. I emailed customs and got the response below from them, so depending on how much the order turns out to be, I may need to break it into two and separate them by a few days or a week just to be safe. I bolded the part that applies most.

Thank you for contacting the U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) INFO Center.

Packages sent internationally through the United States Postal Service (USPS) that do not pass free of duty will have a yellow Customs and Border Protection (CBP) Mail Entry form (CBP 3419A), attached to the outer wrapper. A CBP Officer will have already filled out this form with the item’s tariff classification number, rate of duty, processing fee, and the total amount that must be paid in order to take possession of the shipment.

You should keep this yellow form until you are certain that you intend to keep the merchandise.

CBP then sends the parcel back to the United States Postal Service, (USPS) which sends it to a local post office for delivery.

Note: Most personal shipments worth up to $200, and gift packages worth up to $100, will pass duty-free as long as the recipient does not receive multiple packages in a single day whose cumulative value is more than these amounts.

If you think the amount of duty assessed on your package is incorrect, you can have two choices:

You can pay the duty and take delivery of the package. Then send the yellow copy of the mail entry (form CBP 3419A), which was attached to your package when it was delivered, to the U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) office that issued it (this can be found in the lower right-hand corner of the form). Include with the yellow copy a written statement of why you believe the assessment was incorrect. If you have any other evidence regarding the value of the merchandise, like invoices or bills of sale, include copies of these as well. You have 90 days after you receive the package and pay the duty to make this request for a duty adjustment. If your protest results in a refund, the refund check will be made payable to the addressee shown on the mail entry.

You can also, decline to pay the duty and postpone taking delivery. Then, within five days of your refusal, provide the postmaster with a written statement of why you are protesting the amount of duty. The postmaster will forward your statement, the Mail Entry (form CBP 3419A), and any invoices, bills of sale, or other evidence you choose to furnish, to the International Mail Branch that issued the mail entry. The postmaster will keep your shipment until the CBP Mail Branch informs him or her of the outcome of your protest. No postal storage charges will accrue during this period. If you are located near one of the CBP’s International Mail Branches, the postmaster may send the CBP 3419A to that branch instead, along with your statement and evidence for reconsideration of duties, taxes or fees.

This office does NOT provide estimated duty rates, you may find duty information in the Harmonized Tariff Schedule on the U.S. International Trade Commission HTS Web site: http://www.usitc.gov/tata/hts/bychapter/index.htm

Hello!

I’m interested!

I also live in Canada. Do you have an idea of how much it would cost for the shipping from your house to mine?

Also, a technical question: how do we pay you? (it’s the first time I’m doing this)

(I will post my choices soon)

Hah, DF commented on an Instagram photo of mine!
