I don't think Costco people would tenderize steaks mechanically (simply add more labor cost). They usually cut their steaks fresh in bulk from vacuum-sealed whole pieces (usually gone within 1-2 days) while retail stores keep their steaks out on ice for much longer. Therefore Costco steaks appear to be tender and wet. As steak dries and protein/fat starts to degrade, the beefy flavor becomes more pronounced, like aging. I feel you probably will like ribeye cap a lot.

Fact check: I was wrong. They do tenderize most single-cut steaks with blades.

From what I recall, they do mechanically tenderize most of their steaks, unlikely for this though. I believe you can see it on the label as "Blade Tenderized".

Actually, the richest people are most often the cheapest.

My thoughts are that people who can afford this aren't likely to hang out on slickdeals.

It's an extravagance, like a Disney vacation, you don't need to afford it.

Quote from whodiini :
My local costco occasionally has american Wagyu on sale, 2 pieces of ribeye for around $60. tried it and it was very good. I usually dont buy steaks at costco because they are tasteless, even their prime and lower grades have been mechanically tenderized, which is less sanitary. I find steaks at Sams and safeway better tasting than costco's steaks.

I can't afford this stuff, but did splurge 2 years ago [imgur.com] for 2.16-lbs at $216 for a special occasion. It was incredible.

False. I love SD but I bought 6lbs of A5 Wagyu for $500 'cause I thought I would absolutely love it. I was wrong. I didn't like it. It wasn't bad but it was too fatty and expensive for my taste. Would I have bought it again if I loved it? Hell yeah. My friends and family whom I shared with were mixed as well. Some liked it and some don't, so definitely a matter of taste.
