The value of these products on the secondary market is considerably more with the spirits prize package valued at more than $30,000 and the wine prize package valued at nearly $19,000. The O.F.C. 1994 Bourbon Whiskey alone can sell for upwards of $12,000 and a single bottle of the 2017 Domaine de la Romanee-Conti Echezeaux can sell for nearly $3,000.
