you might be happy you hit "cancel" as much as I love Temptations quality is a concern for me.

I ordered the large mixing bowl.  I used it a couple of weeks ago and noticed taking out of dishwasher its chipped☹️☹️☹️.

(I don't know if it hit up against something but it was on top rack.)

Makes me think twice before I order but I do love floral lace!

that shipping is about right!  I mailed a 12x9.5" box weighing about 8-9 lbs (USPS bases on box size & weight)with various clothing, kids jewelry & fun things for GD ... I was shocked it was $24.00😳.

I noticed prices have gone up big time at both UPS & USPS lately.

Unless you just have your heart set on Temptations you can get a similar size bowl by Pioneer Woman at Walmart. It is 27 oz, not 24 oz and does not have a little saucer, but it is only $20 for a set of four. And they have lids for the microwave.

@KatieB Those bowls are nice but nearly $25 to get one home is a bit pricey.   If in California, by the time you add shipping and tax, it's about $100 for a set of 4....the same price that I paid for a Lenox Butterfly Meadow dinnerware set for 4 with free shipping from Macys!

Maybe they'll show up on "as is" in the future so you can at least save on the price of the bowls to help cover the high shipping fees.

@CAcableGirl2  Yea, The total came out to be a little over $103....   I wonder if they still have free shipping days....

There is another thing about the S & H that gets me.  When Valerie Parr Hill had the TSV a week or so ago, I ordered all three items, the church, the sweet shoppe, the victorian house.  I also ordered the Kuhn Rikon Salt & Pepper Grinders, 2 sets of those.  I think the S&P grinders were ordered that night. 

Anyway, QVC put all of those items, 5 total, into one box and shipped it.  So I paid S&H on 5 items -  they put them into one box that was big enough to hold all of that stuff and a small child.  And with no packaging so the items just rattled around in the box.  They box was in pieces when I received it.  

I paid $27.50 to ship those 5 items.....

I have bought Temptations before off of Amazon, if you are a Prime member free shipping.

@froggyThat set from Walmart is very pretty.    For those asking about free shipping days at QVC--they do have them, but it is very, very seldom.

@Shari514  It's free shipping whether or not one is a prime member.

@KatieB  Those jumbo soup bowl are now available on "as-is".  If you are still interested, they are $12.25 (plus shipping), so now the price is like getting the shipping free.  Saw both old world and floral lace, although not in all colors, but if you still want them, it's worth checking them out.
