Since you continued the negotiations, rather than ask for my account and routing number, I've posted my response. You will have a larger marketplace for your offer.

No thanks! I can't find a quoted interest rate for "longdollars" or "primedollars." I can't figure out an exchange rate for their conversion to eurodollars, so I don't know if 1/1 is a good deal. In addition, my broker doesn't have any securities that I can buy with "longdollars" or "primedollars" or that have coupon payments in "longdollars" or "primedollars."

Is it that you've gone up from asking for 12 eurodollars to asking for 1200 eurodollars in exchange for funny money? :-)
