    Isn't it 100% tax?

    Wasn't it 2c for 1c?

    Oh yes, you are right. That's even worse than I thought and over 20% for 5c.

    It is extortionate - I guess they charge it or most people would just redeem loads of 1c's

    Well I am not sure as the 'richer' members probably needs sacks and gold bars and wouldn't worry about the 1c charge.

    It's silly.

    Buy 50C, say you then want to turn this into 50 1C coins, it's 11C for 10C:

    4 x 11C = 40 1C coins (40C with 6C left in purse)

    It's 6C for a 5C coin. So from 50C you'd get 45C if you wanted to actually trade with it. So on a 50C transaction there is a tax of 10% if you want to turn it into playable currency.

    Then say i go out a buy something with my 45C and it costs exactly 45C. A few weeks later i want to sell it and say the price is still 45C, i go to put it into the MP but i have to sell it for 44C in order for it to go in at 45C, yet again i loose more. So after i've played with my purchase once, 12% of it has gone down the drain back to sulake. And eventually if you kept doing this you'd end up with nothing from it.

    But it's all about the $$$
    I've left. I'm back.
