Size, in particular, dictates how much you will pay for mail order lobster. The number of lobsters you order will also influence the shipping price. Companies in some cases may provide a slight discount based on how many lobsters you order. Selecting certain delivery days of the week will change the cost. Weekend deliveries in particular tend to cost more and are highly popular among customers. The same reasoning applies for the turnaround time. Shipping fees will differ when you order overnight versus a two-day delivery option.
