That is how much the state charges the lucky winner of the lottery but
the number of licenses are limited and they become instantly more
valuable once you own one.
Depending on what county you live in and the demand the sky is the
limit when you want to buy one.
Typically the state requires you to actually operate under the license
for a while before you can sell it, to avoid speculators.

Cite?

Which state?

You said Florida.

You can just google this yourself if you want
Try cost liquor license state

I did, and posted the fees for Florida.

You didn't look far enough to see they only issue new licenses every
10 years after each census (if the population actually goes up) and
they are doled out in a lottery. After that it is a seller's market.

The average price for a license is up in 6 figures depending in which
county you are talking about

Again, CITE?

Look up this thread a ways. I posted an article in the paper that was
complaining that the economy has driven the price down from $400k to a
mere $175k.

One county makes up the whole state????

From YOUR cite:

In Florida, the state only gets money from the sale of a quota license
when the license is first issued through the lottery system. The lottery
winner pays a one-time fee of $10,750 in addition to the annual license
cost

Well, that's his ticket. It's all "personal" experience and ancedote.
Not actual facts.
