Currency exchange

[haakee]

I have about 830 euros in cash. When I was in Europe buying the euros I got hosed with a 1% fee + a terrible (~$1.37/euro or so) exchange rate. I'd like to get US$ and not get hosed on the exchange rate or with bogus fees. Any ideas other than a private transfer to somebody who's going to Europe? I'll be in Vegas soon -- do any of the casinos offer favorable currency exchange deals?

Why not take them to your bank and see what they will give you for them?

[Brainwalter]

Is the dollar still falling? Do you plan to return to Europe? Can you afford to hang onto them?

[Ulysses]

I'll give you $500 US, cash, no questions asked.

Why did you do this when all you had to do was walk up to an ATM and get the cash you needed at the prevailing interbank rate with zero vig?
