Even if you bought them to ship them to someone they would have to bake them. What if they burned them, or their oven didn't work right? Just like the bacon, 3lbs for 89.98 and you still have to cook it and same thing what if you burn it.

I do not bake, love to cook but hate to bake-especially pies. So I have bought their pies more than once, last year I bought a peach (DH's fave) and I think cherry or apple. They were larger pies and yep, I had to bake them before eating them . . . they were wonderful and worth every penny to me.

@We rescue cats ---I can buy the same thing from our local farmers market--for about $27 each. And they are to die for!!  I think they were closer to 12" in diameter and at least 3" tall. All hand made from local farmers  produce AND--they were already baked!! AND....I got to take them home immediately--the best thing----AND can I just say--nothing like a peach pie for breakfast----lunch-----dinner !!!Woman Very HappyHeart

As long as thousands of buyers can afford to pay the price for those pies they will continue to sell them. Clearly, QVC sells millions of food items at their prices. 

Like someone else said, not everyone can get out or has access to some of the food products offered.

The food prices are so high. We bought a Juniors 7" chocolate mousse cheesecake in a Junior's restaurant for $40.00. The Q is almost double....for the same thing.

That's how they cover the "free" shipping.

Very true.  Look at how much a dinner can cost at a fine restaurant.  In 15 mins time, you've chewed and swallowed over a hundred dollars of meat.  Gone, down the hatch.

Somehow I doubt that people are buying these pies on a weekly basis.  They are probably purchased for holidays like Easter, mother's day, etc.
