They are king crab legs for sure.
It was $29.99 some weeks ago. 
It says product of Russia (if any of you guys care where it comes from).

I have been told by the newspaper, restaurants, retailers, etc. that the high prices in the past few seasons were due to the king crabs being a high end hot commodity in Mainland China. With the anti-corruption crackdowns that have been going on, lavish feasts seems to have have dwindled in numbers.
I wonder if that would cause a reduced demand in China, and some corresponding lower prices here?

Let's hope so ... I remember like 6-7 years ago you could find some (semi-shady) places selling for $8.88... then last year the cheapest one I could find was like $36 .png "Y U NO...?") | |
