I don't understand what all of the fuss is over.

Do the customers that object to an uncorking fee think that Reidel glasses are
free?

The original poster balked at a nominal fee. If you (restaurant owner /
operator) can't even cover your breakage costs why bother?

The original poster also scoffed at restaurants that don't have a liquor
license. Are you aware that in some parts of the country the liquor license
can cost upwards of $500,000.

Just some food for thought.
