I have been eating Faroe Island salmon for years. I enjoy it. The price is very fair.

Just like @Janey2 , I have been on AD for years for this salmon.

It tastes fantastic, cooks easily in AF, skillet, oven...anything!

I have a freezer full.

I agree, the price is fair as it is TOP quality, IMHO.

I buy my beef, chicken and fish from Chopbox.com. Their quality is phenomenal and you can buy in the quantity you want. Shipping is free if you spend $99. But that's easy. Their boneless chicken breasts just don't dry out, and believe me, I've tried. Anyway, they sell faroe island salmon. It comes packaged in two. The price for two six ounce, skin off pieces is $14.99, so 10 pieces is $74.95. You can also get eight ounce portions for $19.49 and you can get it with skin on as well. I'm not saying it's better than the product QVC sells, but it's delicious and a little less $$. Plus, I like being able to buy the amount I want to.

@ruthbe This salmon is absolutely DELICIOUS. It is very fresh tasting, a nice meaty center cut, no bones, and very moist.

IMO, in the midnight presentation, the salmon demo'd was overcooked. If you cook it properly it flakes so easily and is very tender. My husband was very impressed as well.

I am on AD and am seriously considering getting a second AD so I can eat it more often and not run out. I highly recommend.

There is NO way I'd buy (fresh) fish from tv. I can buy fresh faroe directly from any of the grocery stores I shop at 10 minutes in any direction from me. I'm also not spending $8-$10 a filet either.

I do not care for salmon. I wish I liked it and would eat more of it. I'd love to try this salmon as everyone raves about it. But I don't want to buy this much of it. This is the problem with QVC's food offerings - they're usually such a huge amount. Storing is a problem for me too. I don't have enough freezer space.

@ruthbe Are you aware that if you're not satisfied with any Q food product, all you do is call CS and your money will be refunded, no questions asked? There is no risk whatsoever.

I love salmon and eat it every week. I know this salmon gets great reviews and I've wanted to try it but I have to admit, it is a lot more expensive than I would normally pay and as another poster mentioned, 10 pieces is a lot for me to get (I too have a very small freezer which already has plenty in it). But I'm still thinking about it...

By the way, I agree that some of what they showed in the presentation was way over cooked!

@deb1113 Thanks for the info!

FYI - I went on their website. That free shipping is only for a limited area in the Northeast, otherwise the shipping looks to be pretty steep - $49.99 if you spend $49-99, $39.99 if you spend $100-$149.

Isn't this still Farm Raised just located in Faroe Island?? If it was wild caught they would say this...I am watching and they do not say it is wild caught salmon.

I thought Sockeye which I see at Costco which is very deep in color is wild caught. I have been buying a frozen Wild caught salmon from Costco. They also carry as everyone else does the farm raised too which they say is white and they give the salmon pellet with dye to get some pink hue color otherwise it would look gray!

If anyone knows about the TSV being wild caught let me know.

It is NOT wild caught, it is farm raised in the Faroe Islands.

The only way you could buy fresh Salmon is if you live in one of the states on the East Coast like Maine to N. Carolina. If you get it from the grocery store it would have to have been frozen before it's shipped to the store and then defrosted at the store and put in the food case at the store. If you live in one of those states then I apologize. The salmon from QVC is very, very good as it is processed and frozen immediately.

Have been on auto delivery for the TSV for 16 of the 6 oz. Egg Harbor Faroe Island Salmon,price was $149. LOVE THEM ,so tasty and easy to prepare.

Just got my delivery in February but all day thinking of putting this on auto delivery and skipping my next order of the 16,money wise.I know I have about 1 or 2 more shipments left and know this is a good deal and the deal is good for 2 years.,

Looking into my refrigerator freezer and rearranging some of the stuffs think I have enough room for 10 more , husband doesn't care for salmon so it's all mine.

Going to click for the 3/28 date,would be mad at myself tomorrow if I don't get this TSV.
