You mistakenly considered the conversion rate of Rial to Dollar!
We do not have dollars at the rate of 42,000
Currently, every US dollar is worth 700,000 Iranian Rials
The prices on your site are correct in dollars
But converting to Rials with a factor of 42,000 Rials is wrong
Please calculate with the dollar price of the day
thank you
