512 keys?  Thats a lot!  My monk has around 78k coins atm and I dunno if 
I should spend 50k on the 535 dps trinket or not.  Atm I need 4-6 
burdens on this char (which is filled out with lfr gear anyway).

Indeed timeless necklaces dont drop much.  I have four 90es rumbling 
timeless isle and so far maybe 8 necks has dropped.  Rings drop a litte 
more often, but still far less than other gear.  I loot almost every box 
I come by and I farm everything on my lock even the mobs on the plateau 
and get maybe around 4-6 timeless every day.  Plate and cloth goes for 
DE as I have a plate and clothie enchanter.

I got the trinket a while back, seemed well worth it to me, but then
I've not done much LFR to get any there, still using a valor one in my
other slot. In theory I don't need any more burdens at present, but
I'm holding onto one; when I get my set gloves off the Celestials (who
refuse to drop them!), that'll break my old setbonus so I'll replace
the old tier shoulders then, at least, that's the idea! May also
burden a 2nd ring (got one 535 and one valor atm), after that,
everything is already 535+ and most are ideal stats, so not too bad.

You've had more necklace drops than me, before tonight, so far as I
can tell, I've only had one - at least, my main was wearing one that
I'd used a burden on (poor stats, hence wanting to try again), while
my two lvl 90 alts are both wearing Galleon drops, and I had none on
my banker! Now a couple of alts can get a 535 neck, phew :-)
