Sticker Shock

It's been nearly a year since I've looked at Puer prices. I hear the horror stories about the prices. My local Asian stores unstocked about six months ago even on the CNNP XiaGuan shu and sheng. I saw some yesterday, the 100g sheng and 250g shu was $7 which was always previously around a buck and loose change.

I've got some TenRen Puer teabags you can have if you run out. The tea tastes like a combination of library paste and (I imagine) flower flavored cow manure. Toci

So you're saying its pretty good puer

Wait until next spring when the next new thing is in and the masses will have forgotten about Pu-Ehr. You'll see some desperate selling, and you will see some of those "investment grade" old teas coming out of the closets for good prices too.

Has anybody noticed a Puer price drop at the online sites like Yunnan Sourcing or Dragon Tea House? I can't access TaoBao anymore with my crappy internet connection.

It's coming down -slowly but surely. Dragon Tea House has lowered some of their prices, as has Scott at Yunnan Sourcing. Vendors here in the states are mostly still selling at the high early summer prices. Jim at Puer Shop is the lowest priced vendor of beengs right now. Shen

I'm glad I got mine while it was cheap. I'm starting to sample everything I have. There is no reason to preserve anything since the hour glass could be half empty any minute for all I know statistically.

Upton seems to have kept their puehr prices the same, but expanded its puehr product line. Toci
