I started my tea journey with the Republic of Tea but have moved on from them. I find them to be too strongly flavored and I prefer to taste the tea. Keep in mind that I have about 6 flavored/infused teas at this time. I like the estate teas and the tea teas. So I drink Sencha, Bancha, and Genmaichia for my greens. I have some jasmine green but I don't drink it all that often. I have a series of Oolongs that I like, only one is flavored, my Bossa Nova.
I buy 90% of my tea from Tea Gschwendner. The rest comes from Gung Fu (a new discovery) and Teavana.
There is no one right answer for what store has the best tea't, it all comes down to what you like. I have some friends who love Lupicia but they like strongly flavored teas and don't understand how I can drink Keemun. (shrugs)
If you like Republic of Tea, enjoy it. If you want to try something else, we can give you suggestions for other stores that sell similar teas that might be a bit less infused with flavor.
