When I asked about tea to fill them with the girl only mentioned the most expensive ones. Even when I said I had a money limit she ignored it and brought over some more expensive ones.<br /><br />Both salespeople were nice but when I said I only had a little to spend you could see they suddenly cared less about me as a customer. <br /><br />Overpriced and sales methods that discourage the occasional or new customers.RJnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7067484794664231041.post-72096028718568592762011-11-29T22:58:22.085-05:002011-11-29T22:58:22.085-05:00Glad to find this, Teavana has annoyed me to no en...Glad to find this, Teavana has annoyed me to no end for a few years now. Wrote a bit of a rant recently, and it's pretty chuffing to see other people that are annoyed with their ridiculous sales culture.<br /><br />http://chineseteainfo.com/2011/11/30/why-teavana-sucks-a-comprehensive-review/Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7067484794664231041.post-1226869747395922482010-05-28T12:35:29.095-04:002010-05-28T12:35:29.095-04:00I completely agree -- I used to love walking into ...I completely agree -- I used to love walking into Teavanna to smell the aromas and to sample tea. However, when I wanted to buy something for a friend, the saleslady made me feel like a horrible person because I didn't want to buy her the $80 gift set. After I told her my price range, she pretty much shrugged me off until I got to the register. Their items are so overpriced that I ended up spending a little over $50 for a 3oz tin of tea, some small wooden utensils, and the cheapest steeper they carried! Every time I walk by I feel disgusted....Caithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06358775278766309766noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7067484794664231041.post-64915828105475516062010-05-09T18:17:01.703-04:002010-05-09T18:17:01.703-04:00I have been doing some research on teavana after m...I have been doing some research on teavana after my wife was sold $160 worth of teas and supplies and made to feel like a pauper if she didn't go through with the sale. They actually slipped a can of tea she never ordered that was $28 for 2oz.<br /><br />Since I am a web professional, I am collecting as much info and stories as I can and I will publish it when I am finished. This time their sales culture is going to hurt them. I guarantee.Marcohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15231456065729387665noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7067484794664231041.post-76862716800709911322009-05-30T16:20:27.560-04:002009-05-30T16:20:27.560-04:00I can agree with all this about Teavana.

I started working at a new location in April, and I'm amazed at how obvious they are about how they want people to walk out with as much stuff as possible. Great emphasis is placed on your sales totals, and even if you make a great sale of a couple hundred dollars, someone will be right over your shoulder, telling you how you could have maximized it further. The only thing my coworkers talk about it their numbers, because that's all we're taught to care about.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7067484794664231041.post-75171859907546292122009-01-02T12:05:00.000-05:002009-01-02T12:05:00.000-05:00I would love to answer any questions about teavana...I would love to answer any questions about teavana that you have.
