Some tips:
-This will come frozen. Let it thaw in fridge for 2-3 days. While semi-frozen, cut into 3/4" steaks and salt each side generously. Then vacuum seal individual steaks and store in freezer.
-To make medium rare steaks, thaw steak from above in refrigerator and then let it sit for 30 mins to an hour in room temp just prior to cooking. No need to add any more salt. Place steak in 200°F oven and cook until 115°F. Then sear/brown each side in a really hot skillet. You can add some butter or oil, but the meat has plenty of fat and surface will be relatively dry. Not necessary, but you can rest for 5 mins after searing. Then add black pepper (to taste) and then thinly slice the steak against the grain. Be sure to use a sharp knife.
Best steak I've ever had. Easy to prepare. Well worth the money. Enjoy.

I imagine this trend will continue as more countries outside of Japan breed wagyu full/mixed breed cows in the hopes of capturing market share by offering "same great taste, lower price" foreign wagyu. Japan will want to keep the wagyu brand high. As mentioned in this thread, having Kobe helps, because only cows breed, raised, and verified from Hyogo Prefecture get the Kobe Beef stamp of approval.
This might be more than you wanted to know about Japanese beef.

For *most* people this will be a more reasonable size and purchase. Unlike normal steak, 8 oz is a lot of wagyu for one person.

Whether something is "worth it" or not is a silly concept to concern yourself with. Something worth it for me doesn't have to be worth it for you. I don't see the purpose of extremely expensive clothes, it's not my thing. My dress pants cost maybe $30 or less usually, I get them at the outlet mall. But I wear an Omega watch instead of a Timex and I drive a Lexus instead of a Toyota. Those things are worth it to me. I wouldn't go around denigrating those that spend money on nicer clothes but drive a Toyota, they value things differently. I know plenty of women with wardrobes they spent 5 figures on that drive Civics or Corollas and live in small apartments.

Im pretty sure 8 oz of muscle and fat are the same no matter what grade it is
Puck has clearly never had high quality steaks and has no interest in it. That's fine, but it's probably smarter to just stop pretending like you're making sense. Anyone that's ever had steaks with this high a fat content understands what's being said. You're unlikely to polish off 16oz of this like you would at Outback without starting to feel sick.

Are you trying to demonstrate your superiority by discussing your deep knowledge of high-end meats? I am sure le boucherie is happy for your patronage, but you seem to have misread my post.
I asked a question: what".
I am open to new information and I hadn't really been thinking of the fact that fattier meat would be more filling. To be honest, I wasn't aware that it had that much higher of a fat content, my understanding before this discussion was that it simply had better marbling(fat distribution). Thankfully, the good people of slickdeals provided me with some fantastic information. I come away from this entire episode with more knowledge, so I count that as a win.
