I'd say that had more to do with Trader Joe's than Buffalo. There was a Buffalo Ranch not far from us for several years. (The guy recent;y sold his herd to someone in VT) and we ended up eating a lot of buffalo, mostly as burger. It seemed everyone in town was using it, you could even get it at the local diner. It was nearly indistinguishable from good, lean Beef, a little lean but much sweeter.
I didn't think it justified the price difference especially since if I bought beef by the half I paid about $2.50# (for all cuts) the buffalo was like $6-7#
The 100% Buffalo sausages were awful, they didn't have nearly enough fat in them and the recipe they used was boring.
