Yixing Pots on AliExpress
Has anyone bought from this store on AliExpress?
I have my eye on a couple of their pots and was just wondering if anyone has had any experience with them. Thoughts? Quality? Service?
Thanks…..

I’m pretty tempted by some of their tea cups. It sounds like they won’t ship just a single tea cup though, and I’m not sure I want to order multiple items.
Yeah, the listings are for single teacups but they are asking that you not just order a cup. Shipping would be expensive for them. I hadn’t really looked at that – I DO NOT need more cups.
I’ve ordered just a cup from a couple of places (granted they were more expensive than some of these) and not had a problem. There are lots of cups on AliExpress – find another vendor that isn’t so fussy about the orders. Hmmmmm maybe I shouldn’t buy a pot from a company that tells people what and how to order…
OMG – some of their coasters are just amazing too. Expensive but really nice…..but if I bought a pot they would take 3.00 off each piece…. ahhhh I have to stop.

Dexter, i did buy from this seller. i think Terri too. It was all good, pot, packing, ship. recommended !
Thanks boychik really appreciate it. They have some beautiful pots, and cups and coasters…. Stuff was on sale until a couple of days ago – might wait for them to do that again. Help with the US dollar situation.
i got it 11.11 significantly cheaper, like $20 savings with their promo plus coupons. i put on wish list and wait. they do offer cheaper if you do that or maybe just shoot them email. some sellers dont mind give a discount
Thanks boychik. They had most of the pots on sale earlier this week. The sales seem to come and go at various discounts. I’m just going to continue to watch and hope for a sale in the New Year. Now that I know their stuff is nice, I’ll order a couple when the right sale comes along. Thanks for your help. Your pot is beautiful :))
Thank you Dexter. i like it too. its a first time was not an impulse buy. did i mention i got free yixing brush ? ;)

I have those 4 (plus the one boyckik got) on my wish list. They are in reverse order – favorite at the bottom…..
Two of those are pretty big the other two are more medium size. I know that boychik likes them really small but for me it depends on what tea I want to use them for. I have some small ones and some larger ones. Really it depends on the tea. I LOVE my large pot for Special Dark – western brewing but in clay yummmm. Love my little sheng pot. Depends. :))
