Ya warm water lobs are a good substitute when cold water lobster aren’t available.

I’ve always avoided the big lobsters, in my experience the larger ones are much tougher than the smaller ones. Personally I’d rather spend the $109 on many smaller tails than a couple large tails. They’re a bit easier to handle/cook/eat, the smaller size allows you to cook them fresh in multiple different ways rather than eating the same lobster leftovers for a few days. But I must admit that until I knew the correlation between lobster size and tenderness, I would’ve absolutely jumped on this purchase.

Too big. Meat no good when that big

Those are spiny lobsters (Caribbean, Florida Keys, etc.). They’re tasty but not as sweet at northern/Maine type lobsters.
Converting to US type costs, you paid about $36/lb, which isn’t horrible, but here (I’m in the Southeastern US) would be high for spiny lobster tails. The sweeter Maine tails of that size usually go about $40/lb, for reference.
