I doubt that you are going to find any yellow tea for under $15 per
quarter pound, and you'd be lucky to find that, with the US tea market
as it is.

What I'd advise is to try a sample of something, which is usually not
too expensive (all of the following sources offer a sample size). And
no, I have no affiliation with any of the following, save that I've
ordered tea from all of them with no problems yet.

Holy Mountain offers the most economical yellow tea I've so far seen,
for $18 per 1/4 lb. http://www.holymtn.com/tea/whitetea.htm (about
halfway down the page, "Organic Huoshan Yellow Sprouting".)

Ten Tea (aka Ten Ren) offers one yellow tea as well:
http://www.tentea.com/yellowtea.html

Imperial Tea Court offers three (!) yellows, none of which sells for
under $30 per 1/4 lb. Even the 1oz. samples usually run over $15.

I wish I could discuss the relative merits of these teas, but
unfortunately I'm as ignorant of yellows as you are. Hopefully someone
will try one and tell us.

Good luck,
