Over payed is the word coming from that chubby shop owner guy but I get it though. 

Tuna are graded upon quality by a biopsy of the meat once caught.   If payed 3 mil, he gotta cut it so thin and charges like a Kobe beef. 

I've eaten fresh tuna before cuz my family is a shrimp and tuna fishing family in Narleans.  We eat them raw on the spot once caught.  I think ours is the yellow fin tuna or whatever that produces In the gulf of Mexico.  We still do eat raw tuna or salmon but it's from Costco though.  Once a year, we send a family person to Narleans and we would box seafood from there to Cali for storage and slowly eating cuz the elders in my family have given up meat but are strictly on a seafood diet.  Low fat that way plus ocean fish are lower in Mercury content than the fresh water critters.

the guy who purchased it, didn't eat it..he bought it for the belief that it will bring the fortune of good luck.  It seems to work, cause he's been cashing it out every year! ha!

The person who bought it can turn around and make more money with that tuna. One can make a lot of sushi with that size tuna.

no thanks. I'm not into girls who's faces look like fish.  Don't want to become dependent on the brown paper bag.  I'm not into girls who smells like fish either, even if people say it tastes like chicken.

So it's like that anime where they get fancy food ingredients... to make the super fancy millennium soup or something.
