Failed to sell my sweat, could have taken a measly 0.5 for it but because I'm pretty tight I didn't bother.

Had a chat with my mentor who kindly gifted me some armor. Decided to go down the hunting route. He advised me of what to buy then had to go so I decided to spend some time fully reading Alice's guide to hunting. Wrote a load of notes down on what I intended to buy and at what price I should be looking for using some of the various resources you guys have provided on this thread.

Now the downer... Went to deposit and failed... Sounds stupid but I stuck in my credit card details in the deposit area and then it asks for an authorisation code that I apparently get from my statement. Took a look at my statement and it's nothing like the crappy example shown on the screen. I can only imagine it's because UK statements are different from US ones, are there any Brits out there who can help here? Looked for FAQs etc on the website and forum couldn't find any that would help.

So, using my hugely inadequate 7 PEDs I bought myself an Opalo, repaired the armor and spent the rest on ammo (133). Got wasted trying to shoot an Exarosaur after getting it down to about half health but did gain some skills. Noticed that it completely trashed amy armor that I'd lovingly repaired. Decided to go after a young Combibo next but after firing about 50 shots at the damn thing I didn't hit it once. Gave up with a crappy 26 ammo remaining.

Anyway, that's me signing off for tonight. I need to work out how to deposit or else I'm going to have to sweat it out the hard way... (Pun intended).

Sorry you bad night ...it can be like that.

I don't know about UK credit card statements , but in Netherlands & BE the code doesn't appear on the statement itself. However if the look at the details on the 'Mindark PE' transaction you will see it(online I mean).
At the time I first deposited the max was only $10 usd before authorisation is needed)
Ukash is a good option.

I would advise you to stick to Exosaurs & Daikibas when solo or team hunt Combibo & above ( assuming you only have pixie or mix of armour). It's not good shooting something that you can not kill.

p.s. if 0.5 is the current price for sweat there is not much you can do to chance that.
