It's common practice in all the agricultural, livestock, and fishery industries to export your best products because it commands the highest prices.Geeze, when's the last time they pulled their pots on the 2nd of December? I don't even remember. I don't crab for myself. I've depended on Freddy's for first of the season freash crab, at a sale price. This last year never was. And when it was I wasn't going to pay that money. And the only thing I saw had been previously frozen for big money. If those local crabbers are selling everything over seas. Or back east, and leaving locals with high priced frozen, I hope they all go out-of-business! I absolutely despise being treated like a tourist by the sellers of our local resources!
When I was a logger, the BEST logs (basically primo old growth) were called "export grade", and fetched the better part of >$1k's just for one large log. Then they got shipped to Japan and submerged in Osaka bay (to keep them preserved) for future use.
