I think the price of your fish is very cheap. In Austria they are much more expensive.

your prices are a little high compared to what i usually pay locally but i hear shipping things to alaska ups the price on stuff. The lfs by me selling Sailfins for $70 doesn't sell many of them because 3 miles down the road at a different lfs the sailfins are about $8.
