Prawns

Well I luv' 'em can't get enough, treat myself to a packet every week.

The thing is, other than size, what's the difference between cold water prawns and king prawns?
At my local shop 150g of the former =£1.65 (£1.10/100g)
The latter 150g=£1.79 (£1.19/100g)

So I'm buying the same weight & logic tells me I'm getting the same amount of meat in each packet, but why the price difference?
If anything surely the smaller prawns should cost more because more of them have to be peeled to get the same weight therefore more labour intensive?
Anyhow I'll continue buying smaller (cheaper prawns) and cramming them on my butties and enjoying them with plenty of salad cream to wash them down.
