*A few days ago I posted this newsy tidbit in the forum: $14,000 for a teacup? Japanese auction takes bids for Lady Gaga’s cup! Well, if you thought that seemed like a lot of money, you and I lack imagination. It’s just been confirmed that the winning bid fetched $75,000 at auction! I can tell you one thing, we here at Tea Trade didn’t buy it. I’m just not that into lipstick stained teacups.
