I noticed this price yesterday, and ordered one. I received it today. It was in old style packaging, unlike in the listing, which shows the new and improved packaging. The pods had a Feb 22 expiration date, and many of the pods were dented.

That's what I've noticed lately with discounted food items. They're just about to expire. I had ordered shelf stable oat milk last year and it had date for 6 months. I ordered same milk this year when they had a sale, and it was due to expire 1 week from delivery.
My last order of starbucks capsules from Amazon (via a non-amazon seller) came mostly dented in the shipping. Some where in a way that I could not even use them. The deal is solid but I'm not sure about the sellers.
How do they taste? If they taste anything like the peet's pods I'd love to buy some.
I prefer these to Peet's, but I think it comes down to personal taste - they both use aluminum capsules.
I've bought these capsules multiple times myself (sold by Amazon) - they always came in the old style packaging (identical to the original Nespresso packaging). It is always possible that what you get may be approaching the expiration date. If it is within two months, I'd reach out to Amazon and have them replaced (they will sometimes offer a discount, too).

I tried the Starbuck's Pike Place capsules today. They tasted good, and had a strong taste like coffee at Starbucks. The capsules are made by Nestle/Nespresso, and they worked fine in the Nespresso machine, even with dents in the side. I hope the new packaging protects the capsules from dents.
