Pretty sure that $1.65 is the ballpark standard retail price for the average varieties.
Kumamoto and Miyagi should be closer to $2 each I think?

I just do Whole Foods. Same price as Lobster Man but they shuck them for you where as Lobster Man doesn't.
Whole foods typically has 4-5 kins with the Kush being the most expensive at around $1.40/each but most of their other ones come in around just under $1/each

So what do you do with them after they shuck them? In terms of getting them home

Whole foods put it in a take out tray with a bed of ice. Consume within 2 hours is what they say.
I usually eat them within 15 mins from door to door.

I want to thank everyone who suggested the lobsterman, went today and picked up two dozen light house and one dozen little wing oysters for $9.95 a dozen. I haven't shucked oysters and I'm so shocked how easy it actually is. Nothing beats some oysters on the half shell and oyster shooters!!   | |

I got 2 dozen Lighthouse for myself from Lobster Man. Was quite refreshing.
My first time schucking was actually quite easy. I used an old blunt veg peeler. Was super fast and didn't get a scratch. Retained most of natural brine.
Something that looks like this. Calphalon Vegetable Peeler - Cooking.com | |
