what is 1 comma 5 dollars? I started it at one. If you want to go lower that makes sense, but honestly, qrter's mom is NOT worth 5 dollars and I don't want to rip you off.
Sorry I only accept wire transfers through western union from suspicious countries.

Altho the last time I propositioned her, she said that she wouldn't go less than five.

Just out of interest, a question for the more wacky Europeans who use commas instead of dots in numerical figures:
How do you show list of numbers (for example, for sequences)?
eg 0, 1, 1, 2, 3
Do you do: 0.1.1.2.3?
Doesn't that cause problems when you have a list of only 2 numbers? eg 2,4? Don't you see that (logically) as 2.4?
How do you deal with things like Microsoft's way of showing which pages you want printed? 10-15,17,19
Do you agree that using dots to seperate thousands for ease of reading (eg 10.000.000 instead of 10,000,000) is a bit silly, as in its language use a full stop, or "period", as our American brethren would have it, it denotes a greater degree of finality/seperation than a comma? For example, it is suggesting that dot to seperate whole numbers is "heavier" or more powerful, than a comma used to show a whole number split into its component parts?

your funds have already been deducted and there are no refunds. But since you don't want her I will keep the merchandise and resell it to _gvarek_ for 5 dollars. I'm sure she'll cook nicely in a stew or something.

We don't use semicolons as the French apparently do. You're right, it often causes confusion, when you have a list of 2 numbers for example. A larger space after the comma does the trick though.
In addition if k is an integer and k>2, then your 10^(3*k) is our 10^[3*(2k-2)], which means that your billion is 1,000,000,000 (10^9), but it is 1,000,000,000,000 (10^12) here. Our 1,000,000,000 is called milliard. Whacky, innit?
Combo, you're fighting for lost cause, their system is more intuitive

i offer 73 cents and a handful of pocket lint.
if this is not enough for complete purchase, i'll only need an hour or so as that is the necessary amount of time for cooking Poffertjes.

She is the property of _gvarek_ now, so you should ask him. Although he was talking about cooking her so she might not be alive anymore.

I warn you: I hold 5 intergalactic championship title belts for rock paper scissors. The belts are made of construction paper with a symbol of scissors as a buckle which is made out of rock.
It's all about psychology and slight of hand.
