Not defending the item's price, but look again. It's not just 12 little pieces of candy. The whole thing weighs in at a little over 2 lbs.

This company has stores in many malls. These pieces of candy are quite large (several ounces), and sell for around $3-4 each..

But shipping and handling are included. Smile Seriously, I agree with you. I know Rocky Mountain is supposed to be good but there's no way I'd pay that price - $3.18 per piece!

And s/h is included.


Cacao prices are on the rise and chocolate shortages are being predicted due to events in the growing region.

We have several Rocky Mountain candy stores near us, and it's excellent candy. Their taffy apples are wonderful.

It's hard to tell how big these candies are just from the picture. They must be big for that price though.

Some people always have to find something to complain about!

The fact that those peanut butter ""cups"" are called ""peanut butter buckets"" alone should tell you that these aren't 1 or 2 bite candies.

All QVC's food products are way over priced IMO.

I am really trying to find a reason to say that it's a reasonable price , which I usually do for QVC. But even here in midtown Manhattan I think I can go to a Godiva store and get a bar for less than that per piece. Sorry Q.
