The bueno, turkish delight, and buttons I can all get locally for less than $2/each non bulk price. So let's say they're $2. I can get a bag of plantain chips that size for $2. Thai tamarind candy from Amazon $1.50. Assuming he got these locally so the shipping from amazon will not factor in yet. That plus two pieces of loose candy which can't be more than .50cents, the total is generously set at $10. If you factor in shipping cost you're getting exactly $14 worth of stuff. The issue is with boxes like this you're expecting to get a touch more than you paid for and get quality items. He gets items in bulk so pays less and it's expected a little of that savings is passed on to the customer in the form of an extra item or two. Bocandy is probably such a small operation that any "savings" is actually profit for them so they literally can't afford to give you more bang for your buck. I'm also guessing that having to procure locally means paying more, means he makes less overall, which is why the box ended up being so far below acceptable. (Old product & clear "fillers" = unacceptable).
I'm not defending them in any way, just pointing out why the small sub boxes can be a HUGE gamble. I've found a lot of them simply aren't worth trying out because of these issues.
