Finally some of our own seafood quality produce is accessable at retail and for a reasonable price

Woolworths forced to introduce a limit on its $20 whole lobster deal (msn.com)

I can't find any WA lobster at several Coles or Woolworth stores. THese ones only have the Canadian lobsters for $17.

You are located in Canada ? The story specifically mentioned "West Australian Rock Lobster" within Australia

While adoring lobster, and agreeing that local prices for lobster have been obscenely high for years, I can only deplore why it's now available locally at a low price.

China won't pay anything for them now, what do you mean?!

Probably why now it's offered cheaper to the local market

Just means the Chinese proletariat now have to visit us to indulge ... unless local professional shoppers are exporting on the sly
