I am interested in purchasing Russian laevigata seed, but am not certain
how to deciper the cost. Do you know how much 360,00 translates to in
American dollars (if that is the price)? Not close to what it looks
like, I hope. I'm sure he could provide American prices if I contact
him, but I wanted an approximate before I did so, to eliminate the
possibility of my fainting dead away when he came up with an equivalent
for 360,00.
