I have ordered from their website two times and ordered about 10 or 12 each time and I believe it was about $50 to $60 or so total including shipping and handling charges. Shipping did seem high because the $4.50 or so HT1632C chips had $10 handling + $10 shipping. So $45 for 10 chips has $20 in shipping and handling.
The chips are packed in a plastic case for protection.
Technical question support has been good but slow. I think the chip came from california.
