Good Hops deal on eBay?

[talleymonster]

I just stumbled across this auction on ebay.

Is this a good price? I'm not sure about the price of hops, and if these varieties are any good.

What do you guys think?

Not a great deal. $34 at the buy it now price with the $10 shipping.

Same order from Northern Brewer, delivered to Vegas, is $30.41 Other places may be cheaper.

I think I pay around $1.19 per ounce, and can get what I want exactly, not a "group" of hops. Also, you have no idea how old and/or fresh they are.

Not the best deal keep looking I have found them on ebay for less then a buck an ounce shipped.

I ordered from fresh hops and they were cheaper than that by quite a bit. They ended up shipping quite a bit more than I ordered too.

I just got my first order from freshops.com too. Can't beat their prices, they have the freshest hops, and their shipping is fast.

When I saw what one pound (actually more) of Amarillo leaf hops looked like.......I had to take a cold shower.

I have used 16.5 ounces out of my one-lb bag of Centennial from Freshops.



(Yes, you read that correctly)

And it's nearly half-full, still. Many others at HBT report similar over-quantities.
