    What happens to CC when internet is down?

    I have never had downtime on my DSl. But it is important to see which DSL provider has the best quality, and least downtime. Some of the resellers have to contact the real phone company for repair, and the priority isn't always there.

    Educating realtors and bankers...what a mess...

    Shouldn't the burden of price be put on the seller. Have them prove to you why it has value. They are probably holding a bigger loan on it from a few years back.

    $1 Token Conversion from quarters

    Thanks on your thoughts. I am glad to hear they don't complain. I think i may give out a bonus token on the $10 to lure people away from the $1Bill. I thought my biggest complaint with $1 Tokens would be that they can't just drop in a quarter , that it has to be a $1. I know that will be a plus...
