Highlights from this day
- ten_of_ten — work out the network fee before you take the ten percent discount. sometimes it eats it, someone check my working 20:25
- ten_of_ten — there are no chargebacks here. that is the trade you are making and it should be a conscious one 20:26
- eight_mm — on a small order the fee can be a meaningful fraction. on a large one the discount wins easily 20:59
- customs_owl — i wait for the confirmations the supplier states and then one more before i chase anything 21:04
- thirty_min_wait — i triple check the address and i have still had a moment of pure panic every single time 21:27

i wait for the confirmations the supplier states and then one more before i chase anything
i triple check the address and i have still had a moment of pure panic every single time
