It was $14 per pound 1 month ago.

Right now, Russian "Alaskan King Crab" is gaining market share, and they bring prices down.

There is a difference.

Russian imported ones are slightly not as fresh (due ot the distance) and has a rougher meat.

Alaskan Alaskan ones are a little better.

And, mind the different types of king crab (there are red, golden, yellow, etc. BEFORE they are cooked).

I THINK the red ones are the best tasting ones.

And, Kirin Richmond, IMHO, serve the best cooked King crab with the best variety of sauces.

Also, J & C Top Gun, I believe, is a hidden gem, with just as good King Crab, but not as many varieties of sauces.

And, you get EXACTLY what you pay for.
