Default Nautilus

So I was wandering around Richland WA last night with nothing to do and go into a LFS and what do they have, but 2 nautilus for sale ($170/each...cough). And someone I work with down here is standing there and happens to be the store owner (odd coincidence).

She said when they harvest these things, they bring them back up to the surface so fast that their air bladders are compromised. Very sad to see these wonderful animals that cannot dive below the surface of the water.
