Money Strangeness

Post by KnitePrince »

I had... some checks in my bank box.. one was 500k, one 200k, some loose gold.. i made a couple sales, one was 200k, and i wondered if it would put me over a mil on the current checks.. when i got to the bank, i had a check for 992254.. the other checks that were less than a mil were gone, the loose gold was gone.. I dont make checks for wierd amounts, i usually keep them even, 100k 200k 500k etc so this struck me as wierd especially as it was more than i thought i had by about 100k give or take a little...

The other thing, I paged about was the rideable Spider i put for auction, havent heard anything about it. I put bidding to start at 1 mil on it, in a bag, with a book, with account name etc...

Only posted for my own piece of mind, with all the doo doo going on its easy to forget the little things. Now i can relax and wait patiently :) Knite

The gold issue - i don't think it's related to the recent gold exploit.
This happened to me before, and i think it's due to insurance being withdrawn from your bank, or some other service being performed and money being withdrawn. If there are no gold stacks in your bank, then it searches for gold checks.

By my calculation you're down 7746gp. That's quite reasonable for one or two times of reinsuring all the items automatically.

As for the spider, i will get around to returning these items shortly.

insurance, TC vendors, rental houses.

only thing that doesnt is vendor over 2K, they will stiff you for checks, they like the coin.



(p.s. i was just trolling)

Ahhh! Vendor rental!! TYVM I had not considered that, I rented new vendors, and moved them from my house.. thats what I get for not keeping close count on my gold... "Spreads gold on floor and counts while he wollows in it"
