What else have you tried? Have you picked your own wild strawberries? Have you gone to a farm that grows them and has a stand?
I'm very skeptical that they're worth $2 per strawberry.

The Japanese and Korean berries are much better. I wouldn't buy them at whim without any thought. They're definitely a treat to indulge in.
Edit: One thing to bear in mind - the main characteristics of these Asian berries is sweetness. They're incredibly sweet, with a hint of tartness. I have not encountered this level of sweet in any North American berry, though I have once in the UK. The Korean berries are also slightly less sweet and slightly more tart than the Japanese ones.
If your preferred strawberry taste note is tart/sour, not sweet, then you might not like them. My wife's cousin prefers her berries tart, so she prefers the cheap berries you can find at any grocery over these Asian ones.
But then there are also some that just have an actual strawberry flavor. It's like an explosion of flavor in your mouth. Like the smell of a bucket full of strawberries but you can actually taste that when biting into the strawberry. I could stay there all day and just pick those and eat them right away. But then I wouldn't ever be able to make strawberry jam from them.
