It’s hard to find fresh, top-quality lobsters outside the Northeast. Mail order is a fine alternative, though, and there are several outfits recommended by Chowhounds for shipping super-fresh New England lobsters to land-locked loved ones. Cheeseboy suggests opting for “selects” in the 2-3 lb. range, as opposed to 1.5 lb. “chix” or 4 lb. “jumbos.”
These companies all have a good track record with mail order:
The Lobster Net
Sanders Lobster Pound
Trenton Bridge Lobster Pound
Fisherman’s Fleet
Board Links: Shipping Live Lobsters
We use the Lobster Net and Fisherman's Fleet both have fast, dependable service and fresh product! http://www.AtlantaLobster.com
I have had very good lobsters and prices from The New England Provisions Company that only use Nova Scotian hard shell lobsters. Their prices are reasonable and more in line with wholesale prices since they are small orders and shipped; this is a good point. Their best buy is the 2.5 pound lobster. Check them out.
