  This seems like standard pricing for Wagyu doesn't it?

  1kg porterhouse - $35
  1kg scotch fillet - $45
  1kg rump steak - $22
  1kg BBQ steak - $18
  2kg sausages - $25 ($12.50/kg)
  2kg mince - $25 ($12.50/kg)

  Add $10 for delivery and bam, $160 not to mention you have to bulk buy and can't pick your cuts.

  My local butcher sells the sausages for $5/kg and Mince $7/kg and the quality is great.

  For the rest of the cuts,, pretty much standard pricing

  A true ozbargainer would trawl the meat aisle at Woolies looking for the discounted meats. Can save a fortune and still get quality cuts.

  OP, where does it say only 6 available?

  I've never eaten affordable wagyu in Oz that wasn't chewy and disgusting.
  Don't waste your time, spend your $20/kg on a prime cut that is regularly worth $20/kg and you'll be better off.

  It's hard to assess the value of this deal without knowing what the marbling score of the steak cuts is (scoring varies from 4 to 12, the lower the score, the lower the quality). Any way we could find this out?

    Marbling goes from 1-12.

    Wheres this 4-12 thing come from?

        Nah that's not the range, just the range they stock. They are a wagyu seller, and can't get above MBS-9 scored Wagyu.

        CSU evaluated sensory traits across the full range of marbling scores and concluded the probability of a positive eating experience within the Prime (abundant marbling) grade is greater than 98%.
        The next grade down, Choice, has three levels of marbling; modest, moderate and low. The modest and moderate levels had an 82 to 88% chance of being a good eating experience, while the Choice level with low marbling has only a 62% probability of a positive experience.
        In stark contrast, the Select grade which has only slight marbling, has a mere 29% chance of delivering a satisfactory eating experience.

        You can make up any scoring system, but the more fat within the meat, the nicer the taste.

        This is really subjective to personal taste.

        We were at Kobe Japan and ordered different marbled scored steak at a restaurant that serves exclusively Kobe beef meals. To me the highest marbled steak literally "melts in your mouth like butter" but it didn't taste like a proper "beef steak" to me - that is you can't chew on it. I ordered a cheaper cut (still about $80AUD) and the taste is much nice , has a better balance between fat and protein.
