If you live fairly close by (so shipping doesn’t cost a lot) this is a good deal!
I bought a small amount – only 4 roots – and they still beat Amazon’s price by a lot.
And it was in excellent condition, much better than what I’ve gotten by special ordering at a grocery store. I bought it in March, so that helps keep it fresh.
