If that's the price of a single one, I wonder how much it would be to buy one which is married!

For that price I'd expect to get the trawler that caught it thrown in.

Whilst I would take the 1 Million it saddens me to read those stats on the depletion of our oceans, nothing worse than the feeling we are boating on stagnant ponds! Thank those above us for the pollack and dogfish that swim below and do not seem to be in high demand

Sad to think fish as big as this and bigger were prolific off the East Costs of the UK only 50 years ago.
