$90 is about what you'd be paying for wagyu in Japan at decent places. At high end places, you're looking at $200-300 for a steak, which is ridiculous. I went to a little steak house in Tokyo and paid $120 for 270 grams (which is roughly 9.5 ounces) of A5 wagyu. You can see that here: http://www.ededition.com/steak-house...atsuzaka-beef/

The key when you're getting wagyu is to order a little less than what you think you would normally eat when you're getting a steak since if you have a side or two, you feel ABSOLUTELY STUFFED due to the higher fat content. If you normally get a 12-ounce steak, get a 10-ounce...which is probably what I should've done but stupidly, I ordered a 12-ounce and felt super full afterwards. After I had that 9.5 ounce steak in Japan, I felt like I was dying from beef overload...but damn, is it good when you're eating it.
