Good day everyone who reads this transmission.

So I have recently come across a load of Helium-3, I just found it by coincidence, very lucky I must say.
Anyway, I have no use for the stuff and need to get rid of it. So I offer you, dear traders, the deal of a lifetime: 2700 units of finest Helium-3, already close to the Bretonian border, for a low, low price of 6 750 000 credits, just 2500 per unit!

If you do not care who you deal with and want to make lots of money in very little time, send me a message on this channel and you can pick up that gas from Freeport 6 whenever you please.

- Your friend, Etienne

That's quite a generous offer an' one I'd be mighty interested in, but I can't shake the feelin' that this is too good to be true. Now Ol' Joe knows when to ask questions an' when to keep his trap shut. What good's a Junker that can't hold his tongue? But this here is one o' those question askin' times.

First off, is your rep good with the Junkers? Cos' I can't abide dealin' with those who would harm my kin. We don't need to be bossom buddies so long as we're civil.

An' lastly, why are you sellin' so close to the border? How come you don't sell it yourself?

I reckon I'm bendin' your terms a little here but I'm a fair man, if you answer my questions an' we don't have ourselves a problem, I'll buy thoe whole kit-n-kaboodle for a cold 8 million.

I'll be waitin' for yer answers.

Big Joe out.

Alright mister, you have some valid concerns I see so I'll try to address them.

Firstly, my reputation with Junkers is quite good indeed as you can see here.

It sounds too good to be true, yes, under normal circumstances.
But I did not pay a single credit for this load, so I can afford to get rid of it for very little.

And I am selling it so close to the border, because that is close to where I "found" it.
I figured people would be more eager to buy in this region, and that Freeport 6 would be a good place to make such a deal, so I went there.

Finally.....the simple explanation for why I cannot sell it myself is because I am Gallic, I fly a Gallic ship and that is obviously problematic for dealing in Bretonia.

I hope this satisfies you. Etienne out.

That's all in good order an' as a man of my word I'll take the lot for 8 million. I'll be up there about 7, what do these Bretonian's call it? GMT? In about an hour an' a half from now.
If your interested I'd like to offer my services as a Fence an' buy anythin' else you happen to "Find" on your travels, so long as it sells o' course, nothin' like synthpaste or the other dirt cheap stuff. You'll find my details attached just so you know it's me.

Greetings again, and pardon my inability to make it at the time you wished, something came up and I was not able to receive your message. Anyway, I'm back and ready now.
I've received your Sky-p protocol and will try to contact you.

I do seem to be quite lucky when it comes to "finding" stuff in space, so this may not be the last deal we can agree to.

Etienne out.
