The most expensive fruit in the world was purchased by Anthony Baskeyfield (UK) who paid £700 ($1,040) for a grape from David Cinavas (UK) at the Helpston Garden Centre, Cambridgeshire, UK on 28 March 1993.
The sale was made in order to circumvent the Sunday trading laws which applied at the time in Great Britain, and a statue of Apollo (valued at £700) was given away with the grape.
