I love woot!

awww nuts! It's a Wootoff killer!

Twice the price you would pay anywhere else. 4x the price of Costco.

Nuts on woot, balls on kids.woot.... someone has something dirty on their mind. Or maybe it's just me.

Oops ... another poster noted that it's actually TWO bags, for 64-oz. Well, that's a little better. On the other hand, at Costco (in Oregon) no shipping nor sales tax. So it would be, maybe, about the same price as Costco. Still not a Woot-worthy buy.

15 for 3 lbs is 5/lb. 2 32 oz (fyi...32 oz is 2 lbs NOT 3 lbs) bags for 22 is 5.5/lb (not including shipping). i'll just buy mine at my local sams.

Corrected post. The other user was wrong. It does say two 32 ounce bags. This is a better deal then my local Bj's.

Although known as a nut, the fruit of the pistachio is botanically a drupe, the edible portion of which is the seed.

too expensive either way... stale?

Thank you. That explains why I can eat pistachios, even though I am allergic to other tree nuts (ie Walnuts, cashews). I can also eat Macadamias. Same reason? I don't know...

Whoever says it's only one bag is full of carp. I ordered 2 and it said 4-32oz bags.

They sell one 32oz bag on amazon for 24.77 so how can this be a bad deal?

Impulsively?

Well, these are bags that could help you crap, thats a start.

Get em at wal mart and you get three bags instead of two and no shippimg to boot NO DEAL

Peapod sells these nuts for $9.60 a pound, not taking into account tax and shipping. In that regards, $28 for 4 lbs is a good deal.

It's not just you.

In college I had a friend whose dad was stationed in Naples. 2 or 3 times a year, he would travel into Turkey and send back 10 lbs of Turkish Pistachios. Reed was the most popular guy in the dorm. Until we had eaten them all.

tekkitan wrote:last time I bought pistachios from woot, they had salmonella poisoning and were recalled. no thanks! :-)

Maybe these nuts are refurbished.

Funny, I just finished a bag of the exact brand of pistachios. The empty bag is still on my desk... Must be a sign that I need more! WOOT!

I'd say not a bad price for 4lbs... Sams was pretty close last I remember but I don't have a membership there anymore.

POLL: Do you eat the little brown part that usually stays attached to the shell? (don't know what it's called)

richellelander wrote:Not 4 pounds, although it looks that way until you try to buy. Then it's 2 pounds. In the description it says two 32 oz bags. When you buy, it changes to one 32oz bag.

No it doesn't. I just clicked the link and it says "So you want 2 32oz. Bag Wonderful Pistachios Premium Lightly Salted California Pistachios?". Quit lying to make it seem like a bad deal.

As the legend goes, the Queen of Sheba made an official declaration that pistachios were an exclusively royal food. In fact, she even went so far as to forbid commoners from growing the nut for their own consumption. Nebuchadnezzar, the ancient king of Babylon, also had a passion for pistachios. It is said that he had pistachio trees planted in his hanging gardens. And the Mogul Emperor, Akbar the Great, hosted lavish banquets befitting his royal status. He often served chicken at these banquets, and ordered all the chickens to be fed pistachio nuts for 6 to 8 weeks in advance to give the chickens a more delicious flavor.

Not in for 1, 2, or 3.

You might want to check your math or the weights listed.

Cheaper at Sams Club

So, all I have to do it catch a flight to Oregon ($800) and rent a car ($50) and drive to Costco and get a membership ($55) and then I can get a better deal on these? Hells yeah!

Meh - if they were HEAVILY salted ...... maybe.

Emailed CS about the quantity issue.

My receipt says for 3 bags... when I purchased I bought 3 "of these" which should be 6 bags.

Not a wooterful deal. Can get this price at the store!!

I can get these at the grocery store for like $7...maybe $9 at the most...

Maybe after I did this I'd pay this much for them.

dude, check your bag. This is $7/lb (Woot). If your Sam's price is accurate, that's $5/lb. Sounds like Sam's is much cheaper

And it's by deLONG.

those are 'shelled'. these are not. here you pay for the shell.

old nuts goin in your bag o crap

These are great nuts. I have bought these twice in the past. They aren't as good as the Fiddyment Farms ones they had a long time ago, but were well worth the price. Not one bad nut out of my last 4 lb order. Strong buy signal here.
