What does anyone know about "Haitian Lettuce Rock" from the Caribbean?

Is is nice? Are there any disadvantages? I can get it locally for $3.75 lb.
Is that a good deal or should I hold out for someone getting rid of their tank and looking for Fiji rock at around $3-4 lb. here in st. louis?

Here is the decription on liveaquaria

Haitian live rock is much lighter than any rock available in the market making it much easier to provide the desired look in the aquarium at an affordable price.

The caribbean rock is alot more dense and heavier rock than other kinds. You are paying less but in the long run it evens out. Plus my opinion is the marshalls and Kaelini looks better.

I do not trust the lighter part of liveaquaria description.
