To put the shoe on the other foot:

  • "No time wasters" (You're wasting your own time writing this for your listing)
  • "Bought for ¤x" (You think your item is worth more than it is and will be a pain in the arse about it)

First time I see someone use this symbol for its intended purpose lol

What is the intended purpose? At first I thought it was a number placeholder, but then we use x for that (OP even used an x).

Edit: Is it a currency placeholder?

From what I remember yes, it's a placeholder for currency

First time I ever heard what that symbol was for! Nice to know
