But how much processing, vac packing, label design/production, boxing, dispatching and probably so much more to get it from a carcass to the shelf.
Don't get me wrong, I'd never buy it, but its probably not that far off the right price

That’s cheap!
The price for 250g Venison Steaks here in Denmark: 119 dkr. = £13.91
Diced venison 300g: 51dkr. = £5.96
That's very close to the price of minced beef.
Game dealers typically give 20-25 DKK = £2.34-2.92 per kg to the stalker, If the carcass has any signs of poor shooting or other damage/dirt, he won't take it at all.

My diced venison is more expensive than that and I sell plenty.
Not sure £30 a kilo for steaks is worth it though.
The worst of it is, there's no guarantee that it is even British Venison.
I was taken by the appearance of the pitiful amounts in the packets, mere morsels they were.

I've bought them before I admit there decently tasty there actually what introduced me to venison as a whole... so not a terrible thing in hind-sight.
I wouldn't buy the venison steaks usually but they go down too £5 decently often what too be fair for meat isn't a dreadful price.
Its also worth keeping in mind venison Is typically associated with being a very rich meat. (I wouldn't say so personally, not that much different too beef in my eyes) but too non venison eaters, there not wanting big huge steaks (normally) and If they are, they know for the most part what there doing and how to source (e.g butchers, venison dealer) than a package on a super market shelf.

Edwards in Conwy were the next vendors along the shelf, think the packaging shows Highland Game.

Of course if you think about it, minimum wage is £ 12 or so, so if you're paying someone to shoot it, clean, butcher, package, transport etc then these prices are realistic, after all every commodity is based on how much/many are sold? Many of us would be horrified by the actual cost of obtaining our carcase. In my case my last trip to Scotland (4 days) cost over £500 , so my 2 roe would have been £10/lb, and that's not counting the 16 hours or so I spent actually getting them
It is a genuine eBay listing but I suspect there is something funky going on with dynamic pricing or maybe the seller has put a silly price to stop anyone buying it while they are away: Highland Game Wild Diced Venison Shoulder 2kg From Uk Stew Pie Christmas Dinner | eBay UK
It does look like they've cut out the barcode and price from a costco pack!!
