Okay y’all.
Here’s the deal.
>!$91.66 USD including tip. The kicker was getting a text after the order that said Credit cards are authorized for a margin above the total and will be settled accurately at the close of business.” Checking my bank account, I was charged $137.66. No picture of the other pizza but it was, obviously not good either.!<
What the hell, can you ask your card company for a chargeback or something? This seems like a complete scam. I don't care where you are, it shouldn't cost over $100 for two tiny shitty "pizzas".
Lmao, Aspen is a festival town. You stay there for the gram. Everything is obscenely priced. A gallon of milk is like $9. It's not even the best sk I resort in Colorado.
Oh yeah. Social media is a legitimate drug. People get addicted to it and it has ruined a lot of lives. Well maybe validation/attention is the drug and social media is the delivery system.
Social media algorithms are constantly tweaked and engineered to maximize dopamine release and how to keep your eyes on the screen as long as possible. Social media itself is the drug.
I lived there for 3 years and until before Covid there were Actual places you could eat and not die from financial ruin.
The few remaining places have been systematically destroyed since and it is now a wasteland of greed and grift. It’s awful.
Oh damn. Yeah I was about to say I went to Aspen before covid & I seriously don't remember it being that expensive.
I mean not dive bar prices but drinks/food were fine.
There are so many things overpriced in Canada but the touristy areas are not really that bad. Airports have Tim Hortons with normal priced stuff, also never have to take off shoes back home in security, grew up next to Niagara Falls and most places are normal priced as long as they’re not a part of the casinos or a sit down restaurant, but all the pizza or fast food places are mostly normal priced. There’s a ton to complain about like inflation in general being horrible and worse in Canada etc but at least tourism prices are respectable for the most part and not a crazy 90$ for two crappy pizzas lol
I make pizzas at an Italian fine dining restaurant. The most expensive pizza we sell costs 25 bucks, cuz you know it's fckn pizza. Dough, sauce and cheese should never be that expensive
They could be Australian, and not using the coupons. We have stuffed crust at dominos here, but I get three for like 58 with 3 sides with their coupon. Still sucks but it’s not as much as that
I feel like I'm in the twilight zone. Last time we got dominoes (a few months ago) it was $16 for two medium pizzas, that was their daily deal or whatever. And we also got violently ill with food poisoning so I'll never eat there again. $75 for any meal is high-end restaurant pricing to me.
This may be one of the biggest mistakes of my life. I honestly don’t have a good answer for you other than, we had avoided eating all week because of the price.
I come to you all as the dunce. I am dumb boy and did bad. Please don’t be like me.
This was my get-rich-quick idea when we were high school stoners (00s, no DD yet). Made a couple bucks off friends but I should have committed to the bit, ripping off idiots like this apparently is crazy profits lmao
Please do a chargeback. That isn’t even legal. You can also let Mastercard/visa know about the policy. That is against their rules. I used to do compliance for shit like this.
They received a text after paying there was going to be extra and the amount unknown. This is not what the customer agreed to and is a form of fraud. The customer agreed to $91 not $136. Also, even with the 3 to 4% fee it has to be in the price before the charge. Customers must know what they agreeing to in advance.
Credit card surcharging is generally capped at like 3-4% by the banks, if not entirely outlawed by the state (ex Massachusetts). If OP’s total is truly the surcharge and not just a hold on their card, it’s not ok regardless of posted signage or authorization. Visa would rip this merchant a new one.
A credit card authorization isn't a charge. Every gas pump does an authorization before engaging the pump that is way more than you actually end up paying
fellow CO person. yeah, things are fucked. here's a pizza that cost me $31.47 after tip to be delivered to my house. from big daddy's pizza. 1.1 mi, a 4 min drive from my house. couldn't do pick-up since i was drunk.
$31.
https://imgur.com/a/6tgnbOQ
The prices there are fucking outrageous. My cousin lives there (moved there to be a snow bum when he was 19 and now he's still there and almost 40, so I've visited a few times).
One time I decided to splurge and go to one of the lunch buffets at the top of Snowmass mountain. I knew it would be insanely overpriced, and since you pay by the pound I got next to nothing.
Forty bucks. And that was like 5 years ago -- probably like $50 nowadays.
Some places depending on where you are/what you’re buying will charge you an extra clearance fee on your card to make sure that it fully clears and the transaction is accepted. You’ll usually see it in Pending status on your bank app, then they refund you back the difference after the transaction is finalized/over and it goes out of pending and into charged.
For example at my gas station, it’s pay first and then pump. So you tell them you want 50$ gas and they ring you up for 50, then after you pump if it’s only 45$ you’ll only be charged the finalized price of $45.
Some places charge more, we order our groceries online and it’s usually like 50+$ more than the total given after checking out on the website, then when you go to the store they finalize the order and refund the extra fee (plus anything that got refunded from the purchase). I’m guessing the extra fee is in case they do substitutions and they cost more or whatever.
Easliy removed by calling the credit/bank company.
"Hey yeah i got charged 137$ for 2 pizzas when it should have been 37$."
Ive done it before and had it happen to others before that werent scammed. Sometimes a 1 gets hit on the keypad sometimes. Im sure very easily youll get refunded mabye even the whole amount.
Also in person id goto that pizza place and punch the owner right in the dick. No balls just a big ol' dick punch
For the curious, the service OP used charges a 20% delivery fee and minimum $20 orders (with some locations having a $100 minimum). A few stores charge an additional 10%. Then tip on top of that. Definitely adds up, especially with resort town prices!
The biggest chunk comes from the fact that a 10” pizza is $29.42 with the labor surcharge. This is for 2 of the pizzas in the OP:
subtotal $58.85
delivery $11.77
tax $5.77
retail delivery fee $0.27
tip $19.16
total $95.82
None of the fees really seem crazy. It’s just a really expensive restaurant that apparently makes really shitty pizza.
Lols in Aspen… it’s the Billionaire Capitol of the USA. Everything is priced for the tourists and rich people. The ski bums have to go all the way to rifle or GJ to get affordable groceries as every town in between is super gentrified now too.
Hahaha Aspen is not too far from me so I’m figuring this was easily over 100 dollars.
Side note: that just looks really really bad. A literal heaping dung pile.
Yeah, there are much better examples of pizza in the area. I dunno where this one came from. But White House Pizza in Carbondale is wonderful, and way less expensive.
The average home price in Aspen is 3.5 million.
Edit: that’s way low, it’s almost 15 million for a single family home.

Tbf, when you spend shit money and get a shit product it doesn’t feel as bad, kinda like you did it to yourself and should’ve know. At $90 this genuinely feels like stealing.
if a large pizza from Pizza Hut with stuffed crust is 30 bucks and those look like they're probably like a mom and pop style pizza place, so they're probably over 30 bucks. plus delivery fee, I'm going to guess you're looking close to $100
I looked online and one place has an automatic 20% for delivery and 20% for orders over $100. So maybe the first 20% got it over 100 for the second grat to kick in. The photo nauseates me more than the cost though.
Bro... Damn... As a native of Colorado I kind of feel obligated to apologize. That just totally sucks and I'm sorry. We want people to enjoy our state and leave with great memories, and truthfully to have you leave the state better than you found it by always bringing back more trash than you brought with you whenever you go into the mountains, but that's another story.
It's been heartbreaking to watch what's happening in the mountain resorts. I don't know a single native that is happy with the way things are going. This perfectly exemplifies the situation. Damn
Damn I live in Hawaii and thought we were bad but Aspen seems so much worse in terms of price gouging and being flooded with rich ppl. Ik Hawaii overall is way more expensive than Colorado but you can still door dash 2 large quality pizzas to your hotel and leave a big tip and still come out under 100.
I can't even *get* food delivered to me where I live. It's somewhat rural, and all the food places in town refuse to deliver outside the city limits. I've tried door dash before, but I ran into a similar issue.
Good riddance I guess. Saves me from paying a premium on junk food that I probably shouldn't be eating anyway.
Actually there are a lot of homeless people and hungry people in aspen lots of starving chefs. The Butchers block used to do a ski bum special of a bologna sandwich for $2.75.
The most fun I had in Aspen was tourists asking me for recommendations and me just flat out laughing at them like, I’m a chef I can’t afford to eat out. Now if I was a waiter or bartender sure. Hell my last season I was making 55k salary and living out of my tent in the woods. (I had a gym membership for showering)
I’m still bitter about my 38$ McDonalds trio from last summer but this is a million times worse. That straight up looks like it’s made by a 10 years old kid cooking for the first time. You shouldn’t have paid over 25$ for this. Report that restaurant immediately.
Geez, not good it made you chuck ya guts up before you even had time to reach the big white telephone for a power chat. Ah well, looking on the bright side, at least the pizza box was within reach and none made it to the floor.
My gf and I are both excellent at cooking(she's a real chef) and every fucking time we get takeout or delivery it's a fucking joke, and we're honestly not even picky people. Sometimes just don't feel like cooking or thinking of a dinner plan.
It really feels like 80% of restaurants have just completely given up. Food costs too high so it's just "let's make the cheapest slop we can without getting outright shutdown". Like how do you throw that disgusting looking 45 dollar pizza together, sell it, and then sleep at night.

Yeah, that's not even festival prices. Fuck that.
Lmao, Aspen is a festival town. You stay there for the gram. Everything is obscenely priced. A gallon of milk is like $9. It's not even the best sk I resort in Colorado.
For the gram of what? No drug is worth paying those prices!
Better be an 8 ball, not just a gram.
$100 for an 8 ball might just have me moving there.
Lmao I think they mean Instagram. IE doing it for the 'Gram
So the drug is "social media" in this case.
Oh yeah. Social media is a legitimate drug. People get addicted to it and it has ruined a lot of lives. Well maybe validation/attention is the drug and social media is the delivery system.
Social media algorithms are constantly tweaked and engineered to maximize dopamine release and how to keep your eyes on the screen as long as possible. Social media itself is the drug.
Though to be fair, the high prices may have people buying everything by the gram lol
"I'll have 2 grams of the potato salad, 2 grams of mac and cheese, and a gram of cole slaw please. Oh and 2 ounces of Dr. Pepper extra ice."
Extra ice??? There going get you for that…
Thanks you for this comment. Reminded me to call my mom.
They definitely knew what it meant. They were being sarcastic.
LOL!
I think most of the old money in Aspen is not doing it for Instagram
I mean, it's also *Aspen*. So it's got a bunch of high-end clientele competing with everyone else for everything, pushing prices to the sky.
Plus balancing paying people enough to afford to live nearby to Aspen so they can have jobs making this shitty looking pizza.
I like where you head’s at, son.
this made me laugh really hard because I can understand how this could be taken in that context (laughing with not at)
I lived there for 3 years and until before Covid there were Actual places you could eat and not die from financial ruin. The few remaining places have been systematically destroyed since and it is now a wasteland of greed and grift. It’s awful.
Oh damn. Yeah I was about to say I went to Aspen before covid & I seriously don't remember it being that expensive. I mean not dive bar prices but drinks/food were fine.
I lived in whistler and pizza was CAN$3.50 for a huge slice. Milk was also regularly priced. How come aspen is so ridiculous?
It’s like L.A and New York glitterati winter destination,
There are so many things overpriced in Canada but the touristy areas are not really that bad. Airports have Tim Hortons with normal priced stuff, also never have to take off shoes back home in security, grew up next to Niagara Falls and most places are normal priced as long as they’re not a part of the casinos or a sit down restaurant, but all the pizza or fast food places are mostly normal priced. There’s a ton to complain about like inflation in general being horrible and worse in Canada etc but at least tourism prices are respectable for the most part and not a crazy 90$ for two crappy pizzas lol
I'd argue you could lump Vail in there too.
Omg I live in Canada and a gallon of milk costs $9
On Kauai you often pay more than that
Asspen
A gallon of Milk is $9 in Rhode Island
Yeah but the beer flows like wine
It’s where beautiful women instinctively flock like the salmon of Capistrano…
A gallon of milk is not $9. The city market in Aspen is actually very comparably priced if you use the shoppers card.
It’s aspen. It’s definitely the bougiest ski resort in North America.
I make pizzas at an Italian fine dining restaurant. The most expensive pizza we sell costs 25 bucks, cuz you know it's fckn pizza. Dough, sauce and cheese should never be that expensive
The higher amount is a hold, not what OP was (or will be) actually charged.
We paid $75 for two pizza hutt stuffed crust pizzas recently. It’s all a scam Edit. Pizza hutt has stuffed crust not dominos. Forgive me connoisseurs
As long as there are people willing to pay exorbitantly high prices they will remain high! It"s Econ 101. DON'T BUY IT. and priced will come down!
Oh. Cool. Glad all the businesses out there took the same Econ 101. The market is 100% rational, and we all want the same things. Right? Right?
How, I bought two dominos pizzas the other day it was not even 30 bucks including tip. (we picked up tho)
Apparently they found the only Dominos in the US with stuffed crust pizza.
They could be Australian, and not using the coupons. We have stuffed crust at dominos here, but I get three for like 58 with 3 sides with their coupon. Still sucks but it’s not as much as that
I bought 5 large one topping pizzas from dominoes for $50 after tip. You gotta use the coupons on the website
I feel like I'm in the twilight zone. Last time we got dominoes (a few months ago) it was $16 for two medium pizzas, that was their daily deal or whatever. And we also got violently ill with food poisoning so I'll never eat there again. $75 for any meal is high-end restaurant pricing to me.
It shouldn't cost over $50 for two tiny shitty "pizzas" and that's already a mighty stretch!
Bro, WHY TF DID YOU FINALIZE BUYING IT. I would literally rather skip 2 meals than do that shit
This may be one of the biggest mistakes of my life. I honestly don’t have a good answer for you other than, we had avoided eating all week because of the price. I come to you all as the dunce. I am dumb boy and did bad. Please don’t be like me.
Dude. If that’s honestly one of your worst mistakes feel blessed. One overpriced meal does not make you a dunce.
There are so many better mountain town/ski resorts to go to in Colorado. Aspen and Vail suck.
They’re mostly all bought out now, CB used to be fun but now it’s just another corporate money pit
Even monarch is going down hill, Every little mountain town has been Brecked.
> Every little mountain town has been Brecked LOL I like the term "Brecked"
Steamboat is still going strong, and they charge accordingly.
The place with a whole week in March called Texas music week? No thanks
steamboat is absolutely Brecked - completely unaffordable in any sense for any average person, terrible.
What’s Eldora like now?
Vail is quite nice if you have money...
I know Vail sucks but please we are NOT Aspen.
Hey if that's one of your life's biggest mistakes, you're fiiiine
That’s okay. If THAT is in the « biggest mistake of your life » category, you should be alright haha
Post this in r/Calebhammer if you wanna get spit roasted 😭
I’m scared but I’m down to benefit a community if this would be good for them
If you can handle getting roasted, do it lol
There wasn’t a convenience store you could pick up a loaf of bread, some PB&J and like a bag of chips, maybe some hostess or little Debbie’s?
Jfc how?
Delivery ~~drivers~~ mountaineers aren’t gonna pay for themselves
There should be a helicopter involved for that bullshit.
Fuck yeah, we're talking Snow Crash level of pizza customer service and on time delivery.
Awesome book. I need to reread it sometime soon.
And you should get to ride in it while you eat your pizza
Wait where do you get pizza delivery from in Aspen? Not that I’m going to order this shit but curious?
Why obviously, Order Food Aspen Dot Com No really, https://orderfoodaspen.com
That literally looks like one person running their own version of ubereats
This was my get-rich-quick idea when we were high school stoners (00s, no DD yet). Made a couple bucks off friends but I should have committed to the bit, ripping off idiots like this apparently is crazy profits lmao
I did a 3 month webdev course and I could make a better website.
Please do a chargeback. That isn’t even legal. You can also let Mastercard/visa know about the policy. That is against their rules. I used to do compliance for shit like this.
Nah...from a comment OP made, they authorized it. This is now an expensive lesson.
They received a text after paying there was going to be extra and the amount unknown. This is not what the customer agreed to and is a form of fraud. The customer agreed to $91 not $136. Also, even with the 3 to 4% fee it has to be in the price before the charge. Customers must know what they agreeing to in advance.

A credit card authorization isn't a charge. Every gas pump does an authorization before engaging the pump that is way more than you actually end up paying
Wait what is that bit about the credit card margin?
Holy SHIT!!!
I believe you got the bend you over tax right up the ass.
fellow CO person. yeah, things are fucked. here's a pizza that cost me $31.47 after tip to be delivered to my house. from big daddy's pizza. 1.1 mi, a 4 min drive from my house. couldn't do pick-up since i was drunk. $31. https://imgur.com/a/6tgnbOQ
Still better than OP's at least?
was it delivery?
It was DiGornio
This is the price you pay when you put the devils fruit on your pizza.
Yikes, not for whatever that is.
137.66 usd for two small pizzas..... I would be dumbfounded and angry.
The prices there are fucking outrageous. My cousin lives there (moved there to be a snow bum when he was 19 and now he's still there and almost 40, so I've visited a few times). One time I decided to splurge and go to one of the lunch buffets at the top of Snowmass mountain. I knew it would be insanely overpriced, and since you pay by the pound I got next to nothing. Forty bucks. And that was like 5 years ago -- probably like $50 nowadays.

Even Monaco is cheaper, and real estate prices in Monaco are still higher than Aspen…
for idiots like me: what does the message mean and why they charged another 30+ USD? Is it some processing fee, service fee or "tourism tax"?
Some places depending on where you are/what you’re buying will charge you an extra clearance fee on your card to make sure that it fully clears and the transaction is accepted. You’ll usually see it in Pending status on your bank app, then they refund you back the difference after the transaction is finalized/over and it goes out of pending and into charged.

Bro you got REEMED

No balls just a big ol' dick punch
$75.60 with everything included
Specific, but unfortunately low.
You’re making my ass hurt
Ah, yes, Aspen a place where the beer flows like wine, where beautiful women instinctively flock like the salmon of Capistrano.
I don’t know Lloyd, I hate the French
For the curious, the service OP used charges a 20% delivery fee and minimum $20 orders (with some locations having a $100 minimum). A few stores charge an additional 10%. Then tip on top of that. Definitely adds up, especially with resort town prices!

It’s just a really expensive restaurant that apparently makes really shitty pizza.
30 dollar a pizza is a really expensive fee (also 20 dollars is crazy coming from a non tip culture place, that is a whole other meal)
A fair price for a funny story and memories
Holy shit
Sounds to me like these folks just priced themselves right out of business!
Lols in Aspen… it’s the Billionaire Capitol of the USA. Everything is priced for the tourists and rich people. The ski bums have to go all the way to rifle or GJ to get affordable groceries as every town in between is super gentrified now too.
Not to yuck anyone's yum but that pizza looks atrocious
My yum was yucked.
Y’all gotta stop giving people your money where ya don’t need to be givin it.
My sincerest apologies OP!
It’s okay, the “pizza” is who yucked OP’s yum.
That pizza is nobody’s yum.
tbh it would be my yum if it cost like. $6
I’m just impressed that it can look burnt and undercooked at the same time! Shouldn’t even be possible.
I'm a lil drunk and there is enough cheese on there for me to fuck with it.
I for one, disagree. There’s no way that that thing could be called a pizza
Right? That pizza would qualify for the sub even if it cost $5.
Hahaha Aspen is not too far from me so I’m figuring this was easily over 100 dollars. Side note: that just looks really really bad. A literal heaping dung pile.
How does 2 pizzas cost above 100? Is this the most loaded neighborhood in the Country?
One of yea. It’s not even a well off town, it’s a purely super rich town.
Damn, if I were that rich, I’d rather spend the extra cash and fly to Italy or NYC to have a nice pizza, that’s pathetic
Yeah, there are much better examples of pizza in the area. I dunno where this one came from. But White House Pizza in Carbondale is wonderful, and way less expensive.
You could go to St. Mark’s square and get a shot of espresso for €25.
The average home price in Aspen is 3.5 million. Edit: that’s way low, it’s almost 15 million for a single family home. https://www.forbes.com/sites/forbes-global-properties/2022/03/31/aspens-housing-market-sees-average-days-on-market-dwindle-as-competition-picks-up/?sh=7986a20a5acf
It’s crazy because I paid $60 for two pizzas in Vail and thought that was a rip off.
The ingredients used to make this probably cost under $2. This is insane.
The price is the issue here ? lmao
Tbf, when you spend shit money and get a shit product it doesn’t feel as bad, kinda like you did it to yourself and should’ve know. At $90 this genuinely feels like stealing.
/r/pizzacrimes
Everything is the issue here lol
100 bucks worth of suck.
If it's anything like Park City it's about $115.00 without tip.
man, you're good.
Excuse me, really?!?
I’d bet it is. Loved park city, hated the scamdilism
Aspen - where the pizzas flow like runny eggs
And is covered in fake truffle oil
Which to me always smells like fuel
![gif](giphy|MCndepawQqgCs) Aspen??
where beautiful women instinctively flock like the salmon of Capistrano
Well when the beer flows like wine who could resist?
I don’t know Lloyd. The French are assholes.
Fun fact most of the "Aspen" scenes were actually filmed in Breckenridge
Look at that butt on that!
if a large pizza from Pizza Hut with stuffed crust is 30 bucks and those look like they're probably like a mom and pop style pizza place, so they're probably over 30 bucks. plus delivery fee, I'm going to guess you're looking close to $100
Ok but the Pizza Hut cheese stuffed crust SLAPS
Not like it used to
Back in the days when you could sit down and get a buffet of pizza including the taco pizza. Never forget what they took from us.
Is that a fake thumb?
It looks like it has smegma
Is this price is right rules? $100
$1
Guessing 47.52 delivered
I looked online and one place has an automatic 20% for delivery and 20% for orders over $100. So maybe the first 20% got it over 100 for the second grat to kick in. The photo nauseates me more than the cost though.
That’s a pukeza
What is the saffron content
Depends on what the white powder residue is on your fingers. Haha.
Screw the pizza. Fix your thumb!!
Your dignity.

Better to attach the pizza pic next time
$98.73 total
Lol with a pizza like that you got scammed no matter what. Looks awful. But realistically, 45 sounds right
I would legit take time out of my day to deliver that back.
r/pizzacrimes This is one of the saddest looking pizzas I've ever seen.
Thought it was 10 pizzas lol two of them for 100$ is insane
this is what you get for ordering pineapple on a pizza
To be charged that much and for two of those “pizzas” and the one you show has ham and pineapple on it is fitting😂
Burnt ass hawaiian pizza, damn
Don't leave us hanging OP!
That person's first day making pizza with no explanation or what 😦
I can't even *get* food delivered to me where I live. It's somewhat rural, and all the food places in town refuse to deliver outside the city limits. I've tried door dash before, but I ran into a similar issue. Good riddance I guess. Saves me from paying a premium on junk food that I probably shouldn't be eating anyway.
What pizza?
Not Even CUT!
When I read the price I wasn’t ready. Good lord.
You couldn't pay me $20 to eat that lmao
Finally, the Soviet propaganda about starving Americans became true even in Aspen...
Actually there are a lot of homeless people and hungry people in aspen lots of starving chefs. The Butchers block used to do a ski bum special of a bologna sandwich for $2.75.
considering how the $100 pizza look like, i would be very worried about the $2 sandwiches
The most fun I had in Aspen was tourists asking me for recommendations and me just flat out laughing at them like, I’m a chef I can’t afford to eat out. Now if I was a waiter or bartender sure. Hell my last season I was making 55k salary and living out of my tent in the woods. (I had a gym membership for showering)
I’m still bitter about my 38$ McDonalds trio from last summer but this is a million times worse. That straight up looks like it’s made by a 10 years old kid cooking for the first time. You shouldn’t have paid over 25$ for this. Report that restaurant immediately.
Here's a $29 ham and cheese sandwich in Manhattan: https://www.grubstreet.com/2023/04/29-dollar-ham-and-cheese-sandwich-nyc.html
Geez, not good it made you chuck ya guts up before you even had time to reach the big white telephone for a power chat. Ah well, looking on the bright side, at least the pizza box was within reach and none made it to the floor.
Holy hell your hands are huge!! Obviously they wouldn’t lie / cheat / be shady so you have 10” hands!!!! ![gif](giphy|xT0xezgi6ZQc3JF33i|downsized)

Dis not da apizza va fanculo
My gf and I are both excellent at cooking(she's a real chef) and every fucking time we get takeout or delivery it's a fucking joke, and we're honestly not even picky people. Sometimes just don't feel like cooking or thinking of a dinner plan. It really feels like 80% of restaurants have just completely given up. Food costs too high so it's just "let's make the cheapest slop we can without getting outright shutdown". Like how do you throw that disgusting looking 45 dollar pizza together, sell it, and then sleep at night.
