THe Price for Maine lobster will change some from season to season . Right now is a great time to buy genuine Maine lobster because the quality of maine lobster this time of year is at its best . Maine lobster is a perishable item so must be shipped through a gaurenteed overnight service such as Fed ex. It is packed in styro-foam coolers with card board outers and we use frozen gel packs desighned specifically for shipping the lobster in the packages . A little fresh seaweed is somtimes added if it is avilable . The price we buy Maine lobster for directly from a fisheman ranges from $3.50 to $6.00 a lb depending on it qulaity such as if its a soft shell or a hard shell and if its over a 2lb lobster which would make it a select size . The averages prices for a packaging box that we buy them for a $5 for the small bozex , 10$ for the larger boxes . Gel packs cost us appox .35 cent a pice . Generally when you go to a packing store to purchase these products you will pay 2.5 times the prices i am suggesting which could be considered the retail prices. Shipping cost start a 25$ this is the minimum price to have anything shipped in such a fast manner gaurenttedd to be there by a specific time by the next day . 25.00 is just the service fee after that a price of $3.00 per pound would be added . In most cases people are paying more for the shipping then the product itself . We do recammend buying at least 12 lobsters if true value per pound is what you are looking for . In most cases we are able to ship one case of 1.35lb lobsters anywhere in the US for about $11.00lb . This is actually a great deal considering most companies need to get at least 15$ per pound for the same package.
