I stand by the free market philosphy, yet I'm a little confused.  By my math, and according to prices Pete and others have posted, shouldn't the "value" of 1 bottle of Pappy and 1 bottle of rye be roughly $200?

Don't really have a dog in this hunt as I don't drink and as stated above.  But why would Pete come out in his FS thread and act offended, as if $400 was in line with retail?  Or am I completely whacked out?  Again, the market decides the price and not trying to bust Pete's ball here.

I guess beside the real issue at hand, there is a basic reading comprehension issue on forums in general ???

All gouging aside, seriously what the fuck is the purpose of the state of RI? I do like Narraganset porter, but otherwise I don't get it?

I'll just repeat what I wrote on CF:

Thanks for playing Pappy police. FYI I sold multiple bottles at my cost. The latest batch I purchased at significantly higher price and was offering as a favor to those who couldn't get it. "No good deed goes unpunished."

Seriously man?

Am all for free market but lose the 'doin it for my peeps' horseshit.  Your prices are way about retail.  Deal with it.
