Baan Chan Seafood Market is located opposite the exit of Jiangxi Leng Shopping Center near Patong Beach in Phuket.

The market occupies a small area and is divided into upper and lower floors. Half of the ground floor sells fresh vegetables and fruits, and the other half sells fish, meat and seafood products. The second floor is mainly a seafood processing area.

This time, I bought three lobsters for 1,000 baht, one Australian lobster and two blue lobsters. The processing fee for lobsters is 60 baht/g, and this processing fee is fixed.

When I come here to shop, there are many Chinese tourists. Almost every vendor can speak Chinese, and bargaining is natural. When I was buying, the vendor directly said that I could bargain together after buying. So haggling is common here.

So, buy seafood downstairs, get a price you think is right, and then go upstairs for processing.
