Hell, even the seller is a little suspect...

Anyway, I'll leave you to it. No doubt I will be ignored.

OOC: My bad. I knew I'd get my fingers burnt. I'll be more careful next time.

Thanks for the advice Troon, I think I'l skip checking my budget, on account of I have 2.05 Billion Population, so your calculator is hard to use...
