Gold Sold From Vending Machines In Germany

Posted by samzenpus on from the correct-change-only dept.

There are fewer hassles for an adventurer or business traveler bigger than lugging around bags of silver and copper pieces. Luckily TG-Gold-Super-Markt has installed gold vending machines in 500 locations including train stations and airports all across Germany. The machines charge about 30% more than the current trading price for gold, and are updated every few minutes. All are closely monitored by cameras, and like 3rd and 4th edition, electrum pieces are not accepted.

    There is the election of a certain moron into a high ranking position who has a long history of trying to outlaw anything related to firearms. Along with the promises/threats from idiots like McCarthy to push for more bans, demand has soared through the roof in the past few months. Production has been increased, but demand has risen much much faster.
