Tear you down? Sure, why don't we take a look at turn 9:
VulturesRow draws 2 cards and gets +1 buy from the Wharf.
VulturesRow plays an Expand.
... trashing a Silver.
... gaining a Gold.
VulturesRow plays 2 Coppers and a Silver.
(VulturesRow draws: a Copper, 2 Estates, a Gold, and a Silver.)
Why not just buy that Gold direct?
