Soft or hard?

I live “just this side” of Biloxi, MS. Prices vary dramatically. Size and availability play a huge part in the price. 
With that said, in a good year, small claws can be got for around 15 - 20 bucks a pound. However, on that same note, I have seen the colossal claws go upwards of 60 bucks a pound during a bad year. The price is all over the board. There is a real good chance that what you pay today will not be what you pay tomorrow. The price fluctuates dramatically in my neck of the woods. Others mileage may vary though. 
With all that said, if I had your money I wouldn’t even give the price a second thought. I would just order up a ton or two and enjoy them

Didn’t know you could get them that way.

@RRP
Foley Fish House has them listed at 11 bucks a pound right now. With that said, they are no doubt small to extra small claws.

I live in utard.  We don't get stone crab claws, but we do have Mrs. What's-Her-Name's fish sticks; they're relatively inexpensive.  
 
Wanna hear the twue stowey about utard seafood??  It's brine shrimp!  They're about the only thing that grows in the Great Salt Lake (besides flies) and they're harvested, dried, and flown to Thailand and Vietnam, where they're fed to piscean shrimp, which are then harvested, frozen, and flown all the way back to this side of the globe, to be served in your linguine.  
Carbon-footprint shrimp, for the WIN!!!  
 
And, dammit, this newest version of Mac OS wants to correct all my clever mis-spellings!  Cut it out, Apple!!

WOW! at least your explanation about what shrimps from Thailand and Vietnam are fed makes me FEEL better than the rumor and PICTURES that flow around the net of whole families sh*tin off a plank to feed the shrimp!

Pornhub again Ron?

We have a winter place near Naples Fl and there is a guy that sells them at the side of the road for $20/lb - large ones!

$28.99 /lb.   just saw an advertisement yesterday. Probably a little pricey.  This is not a seafood company but from an upscale meat market/ butcher.

Stone crab claws?  That sounds like a high priced dinner at Red Lobstah.  I haven’t seen them on the menu at Long John Silvers.

Wild shrimp eat poop from all the other animals swimming above them. Farm raised shrimp don't have that option so the farmer's have to provide that themselves.

It's all part of the cycle of life.

The only "farmed" seafood I will eat is Faroe Island salmon.

I paid $27.99 a lb. in Tampa, FL, and $30 per lb. in Clearwater. This was for large, approx. 5 claws per lb.

This pic is 2 lbs.

Thanks, Faith - your thread over there was what made me run this topic up the flag pole over here!

ASB Seafood out of Alabama brings fresh and fresh frozen seafood into KY, so. IN, E. Mo, and NC Tn. They handle a quality product running trucks from the coast 2-3 week. Check them out on FB. $15 lb for claws. I have no idea what size they are.
