On top of that, they're kind of a pain to eat. They have a bunch of large seeds inside, so the amount of edible fruit flesh isn't that much. I think commercial fruits tend to be much easier to eat than this.
But yeah, they don't store well either. I've kept them in my refrigerator, but they don't store that long there, unlike apples for instance. Bananas don't store well either, but they're really, really easy to eat, unlike pawpaws.
I enjoyed picking and eating them when I lived in a place with them: it's fun being able to eat fruit that you picked yourself out in the woods. But if it were sold in stores, I doubt I'd buy it very often.
