My recollection is that it was about $18-20/lb. The "other" salmon was
$10/lb. My hunk (It was from the middle of a full fillet) was $8.50. I
KNOW that the young man (co-owner of the spot - that's an interesting
story another time, maybe) weighed it out at $9.68 on the scale - I saw
it. He *said* $9.50 (not hassling with anything but quarters for
change). He wrapped it and added ice to the bag. I gave him $20.50
and he handed me $12.00. I told him I thought that was too much - that
I thought it was $9.50; he said he was pretty sure that it was $8.50. I
offered the package for him to weigh and he just waved me off. OK. I
tried.
