I want to buy good quality black leaf tea like Sri Lankan Orange Pekoe, Indian Assam/Darjeeling tea. T2 is stupidly expensive. I am in Melbourne but also willing to buy online. I heard there is a good tea shop in South Melbourne market. Please suggest me where to buy great tea for reasonable price.

Lol they're even more expensive than T2, but I really like the teas from there. They have an online shop too https://www.teadrop.com.au/.
Try these brands…
Sri Lankan grocery store (MKS) or Coles - Dilmah
Indian Grocery stores - Tata Tea Premium
I am of Indian origin, Tata Tea is not high quality. It not even 100% leaf tea.
Dilmah online. Am a big fan of their Darjeeling
Dilmah, definately.
DIlmah, do try it ;)
If you really into tea, try BOP/OP/FBOP tea grade usually from ceylon/Sri Lanka. They are large tea leaves, not the leftover dusty type. Usually you can buy them from asian/indian markets etc.
You get the better flavour, but less darker.
Once you try this, you will treat all the other type as leftover dust from the factory.
