But what if IGE drops the price to $3.00?


Because economics of SL would not allow that, the price is pretty much set at amount of Linden dollars you get per week for your premium account. It's too late to explain this to you.

Well thats my fear about not having an open market. IGE could turn round and set a price of buying L$ at 1.00, and selling at 4.00. If they went to that extreme, they would get no business of course, but just as an example.


I spoke with Philip an hour ago, the exchange system is almost ready, they will kick in shortly. This panic is just nonesense. In fact there is no panic whatsoever, it is completely artificial.

This is exactly the type of attitude the Director of SL-FEMA should have. You're definately the right man for the job!

If you need $US for your Lindens now, I would suggest selling them to Anshe Chung (not IGE, considering their bad rep in SL). If not, hang onto them untill LL opens its curency exchange.

2 bucks a thousand is the bad news projection i read somewhere.

everyone with gom balances should get their funds out before they forget about it huh?


Who wants to sell me $L at US$ 2.00 a thousand $L again? If you are actually serious, fill my buy orders I put higher than that on the way down.

The big wave is coming! Yes! /me Puts on swim trunks and gets out his board.

keep your money

I say keep your money
I'd keep mine

If everyone sell their linden when gom closes , your money will instnaly be worth alot more inworld
because no one will have any cash to buy anything , people will have to lower
prices for everything :) .. (if they wish the economy to have any kind of meaning that is)

-----

but seriously now , who's going to buy everyone's linden and to what single purpose?

this is flawed logic. GOM is not like IGE, they don't buy lindens at all. For every linden dollar sold, there is a buyer who is a full avatar in world. So currency just goes round in circles.

So is the Linden dollar going the way of the Edsel and lesisure suits?


SL Exchange is paying US$328 per $L100,000. Payment is sent via PayPal Mass Pay so the seller does not incur a fee. Please email [email]apotheus@gmail.com[/email] if interested.
