Shelled pistachios are the better value.

Based on the cost of edible portion, the 24 oz of shelled pistachios for $15.50 is significantly cheaper per unit of actual nut meat than the 48 oz of in-shell pistachios for $18.50.

Shelled Option: You pay $0.646 per ounce of pure pistachio.
In-Shell Option: Shells typically comprise 45–50% of the total weight. A 48 oz bag yields approximately 24–26.4 oz of edible nuts. This results in a cost of $0.70–$0.77 per ounce of actual pistachio.
Even if the in-shell nuts yielded the maximum 55% edible portion (26.4 oz), the price per edible ounce ($0.70) is still higher than the shelled option ($0.646). Therefore, buying the pre-shelled pistachios saves money and time.
