If it's sent in a satchel or wrapped in brown paper to send it, that's a package. There's no picture of a box in the listing and no mention of one. The picture is taken FROM a box but it's not OF a box. What others have in their listings has got absolutely nothing to do with what's in this one. How they're sold in supermarkets has nothing to do with this listing either.

There is indeed a picture of the box. That leading photo is of the box.

It is plainly showing the front of a box because the wording on it is 'starter pack' and 30x 3g sachets.

I would ask-why show a box in the photo or from a box if the things don't come in a box?

I thought ebay photos were supposed to be of the item itself. I am pretty sure that's the rule.

It is listed a a new item, unopened.

Clearly the sachets are from a box that has been opened.

It is extremely misleading to advertise these, showing a photo of a box they came in when they won't come in that box and also when buyers who search for similar items will be seeing ads with a similar leading photo but theirs does come in a box.

I'm afraid I would not be happy to give them as a present either. If i got such a present myself I hope I would be polite and all but I would wonder whether they opened the pack and only gave me half the contents or what. Teabags come sealed.

What i would be doing myself is opening a case. I would ring ebay if I had to, to explain they came loose, in no box as depicted.

Then for the present I would go out and buy some tea from T2 or else a couple of different interesting sealed packs from the shops. Try green soursop tea from Governor's estate. Maybe a few like that.
