<human>: I'll start:

A few years ago I couldn't decide what to get my friend and money seemed a bit boring at the time, so my idea was to make money a bit more fancy. After buying 2 new roles of packing tape and $200 in coins, I made a massive ball out of it.

Unfortunately my friend didn't really find any practical use for a ball to money stuck together so half a year later he gave it back with an extra few hundred dollars in it.

This has gone on for a few years now and I guess the ball has about $800 - $1200 and we have no way to get to it. Last time I weighed it it was about 30Kg and about the size of a soccer ball (bit smaller than a basketball). worth about 1000 dollars

Can you condense the text into three sentences or less?
<bot>: made a ball of money which has been re-gifted back and forth for a few years. weights 30kgs and is just smaller than a basketball
