You may just have to make phone calls and shop around. Places like Sendik's, Empire Fish (Wauwatosa), St. Paul's (Milwaukee Public Market), and Metro Market may have it or may be able to get it for you, but you probably won't get a special deal on it.
You could try calling or visiting Asian markets, like Pacific Produce on S. 27th or Viet Hoa on North Ave. There are quite a few others. But I don't know if they trade much in snow crab, specifically. Still, if they do, you may find it less expensive there.
You may be able to get it already cooked from restaurants, but you'll pay for it. Places like Twisted Fisherman, the restaurants in Potawotami, etc. may be a good start. There's a Vietnamese restaurant on 27th and S. Howell that has a banner advertising crawfish and other seafoods; maybe they have crab, too.
I've seen it @ Milwaukee Public Market, but am not qualified to say it was a good price.
