Well, they're not the cheapest, at least not compared to the bulk
wholesalers, but they're not the most expensive by a long shot.

I like them as well because their order system is reliable and works in
virtually any computer environment, because their shipping is expeditious
and well-handled (they're the best at minimising weather issues), and their
quality control is excellent (I've gotten very few bloomed bars and fewer
broken bars)

Other sites, I've found, can take a somewhat more cavalier attitude towards
packaging and weather awareness. It's really a case of getting what you pay
for. The extra cost over the really bargain-basement locations buys you
dependable product and no-hassles ordering.
