SC - Re: Saffron cost

[Siegfried Heydrich]

Um, I think your math is a little off, here. There are 28 grams to an ounce,
and 16 ounces to the pound, so -

                  x 28                  x 16
@$5.95/gm = $166.60 / oz = $2,665.60 / lb
@$3.95/gm = $110.60 / oz = $1,769.60 / lb

    And not (though I wish)

> @5.95/gm = US$130.90/lb = US$8.19/oz
> @3.95/gm = US$86.90/lb = US$5.44/oz

> Seumas

    So you see, the yellow herb costs about the same as the green 'seeds of
paradise' herb, depending on the quality, of course.
