Black Seal Madeira 1795
$ 41.900,00
Since they are in Florida, that would be just under $42. I could pay that for a bottle. Now if they were in Europe, the listed price would be in the thousands, but since Florida is in the USA and US conventions are that a decimal point separates the whole dollar amount from the fractional portion, that's very inviting. ;-)
