Bother:

Having never used Craigslist or ebay to sell my items of intrinsic value and seeing how the Pirate Bay and Silk Road are permanent on Santa's naughty list I tried the Market Place on Facebook. The online classifieds haven't changed all that much since my previous outing; post a picture, write a brief story and wait for the weirdos to come sniffing. I recently acquired a pair of analog credit card transaction machines, the slide and slide action that rubbed the raised imprint of your credit card details onto several layers of carbon copy transaction receipts that made you look super rich and irritated the bank tellers if the numbers are illegible. I'm examining these two antique machines when I notice the raised plate was missing, usually the plate was cut for the merchant operating it but my curiosity ran away and I dropped this little gem under the picture: analog plate printer, single print slider, print plates not included. The response was weird. Several DMs from a third world counterfeit syndicate and an official looking administration post flagging my suspicious activity. Those Interpol folk are mighty understanding, I'm not selling contraband material but if I were the selling of machines and key components together lands you in the Gulag but selling them separately, to different buyers is not illegal. My misinterpreted post was neither. My misleading the weirdos online is certainly trying the patience of  the digital police. Still I wonder if I could modify these two machines to reproduce a rudimentary reproduction of paper currency, anyone having a spare plate?
I would successfully construct my personal printing press to produce an unlimited supply of Monopoly money, everyone loves playing Monopoly. 

End.
