[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Most of their fresh fish was previously frozen. [/quote]

This is totally true - Almost all fish is frozen for transport and then defrosted by stores for sale.  I was told by the fish mongers that the same fish sold frozen in the packages at Whole foods is defrosted and sold at the fish counter.  I regularly buy the Whole Foods frozen farmed and wild caught salmon, and it is excellent.  For me, the key is defrosting the fish gently in frequently changed cool water.

[quote=Anonymous] I still think the WF stuff is too expensive - Trader Joe's is usually a better deal for same quality.[/quote]

I have not found this to be true.  I buy a lot of things at Trader Joes, but I don't like their fish.  I don't think that they are as careful about keeping the fish hard frozen, so it often tastes unpleasantly "fishy" to me after defrosting.  I have tried several different types, but none has been very good.  Maybe I am overly picky or am defrosting it wrong.
