Merit buying is just stupid, why would anyone risk his account at a cost of getting red trusted or even banned? I can see only one reason to risk your hard earned cash and precious (if Full Member and above) account. The seller should write you a cool article, which would be very useful for the community.

Then nobody will question your merits, assuming it is not a plagiarism (ouch). Oh, I just created a new job, a merit copywriter.
