I bought some Lindt chocolates in July on advance order for the holidays. They were (as told) a great buy for $65. 

I see that the boc of 100 pieces is priced at $45.  

The difference is 50 pieces more in the more pricey box.  For 50 pieces it's @20 dollars more. 

How is that? I want to believe I got a good deal.

Are you saying there were 150 pieces in the 65 dollar box and 100 in the 45 dollar one? In that case the higher priced box actually was like a cant and a half cheaper per piece so it's a better deal. 43.3 cents vs 45 cents.

@Puzzle Piece.  I don't know what the difference is but I canceled my order and ordered the 100 piece.

Different flavors, perhaps?

[Puzzle Piece]

@pigletsmom  Thanks.  I was very close to changing my order and wondering why the Q would do such a thing.  I have to watch my pennies.

Funny how people don't worry if they buy something then the price goes up. . . 

[Venezia]

Of course they don't worry, if the price goes up.  That's just silly.

But I'm tired of QVC's pricing games.  I just bought something in the past three weeks that was shown on air ...  "brand new!"  "First time we've seen this!"

And less than three weeks later it's $8 cheaper.  Will I ask for a refund of the difference?  No, because, of course, it's "clearance sale price".

If it were "sale price" I could get a refund, but that all important "clearance" disqualifies it under their new policies (apparently).  How can something "brand new today!" go to clearance so fast?

Pricing games.  There's no way to trust that you're getting the best deal from QVC any longer.

@Puzzle Piece  I bought the 150 piece in a holiday box on June 23 (advanced order for December) for $49.98. I think it was a TSV for the early CIJ presentation. It's now being offered at $61.00. Perhaps, as @geezerette  posted, there are different prices for different flavors.

One of the flavors in the 100 piece option is sea salt. That's a flavor I will not eat.

You can order directly from them. They often have special deals and you can choose your flavors.
