I am attempting to purchase $100-$300 of tea from either White2Tea or Yunnan Sourcing. Resolves YES if I receive it before May 1st. NO if the sites don't accept the order, it gets held up, doesn't arrive, etc.
Currently there's a lot of uncertainty with shipments from China, partly due to small value parcels are no longer exempt from tariffs. The US postal service has stopped accepting parcels from China: https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c3w83x38zvwo

@rictic Thanks for keeping us updated. Well-handled market. I sincerely hope you like the tea, enjoy!
@rictic Shipping site still says the same thing. White2Tea now has a banner "Attention USA customers: We are shipping, but it's best to only order if you are comfortable with potential for delays and tariffs."
@rictic It's arrived in Los Angeles, the USPS has taken custody of it, and it's left the LA center. Potentially the highest risk handoff is complete?
USPS thinks it's delivered, but it's not at my door or at my apartment's front desk. sometimes USPS does this, and it takes a day or so
I've placed an order, and will update as I get more info.
I hold 408 shares of YES that I bought immediately after making the market. I will not make any further trades. If the tea arrives I'll take pictures, and either way I'll make an effort to share correspondence about shipping and such.
