Changing foreign currency

Sorry but I couldn't find anywhere more relevant to post this. basically I have some US dollar notes from over the years that Ebay buyers sent me a long time ago. I would just like to know the best place to take them where I will get the best rate.

Thanks.

Best thing to do is find a relative/friend/colleague who's planning a trip and sell them at the current spot exchange rate.

Failing that:

How much money? If it's just a small amount, just look around your local high street for the best rate. The Post Office will take them off your hands, but you'll lose about 10% in the conversion.

If it's more than £50 or so, look on the Travel Money Maximiser on this site and select "Buy Back" - the best rates are places in London, so you may have to post the cash by special delivery to them, but you get much better rates than the likes of the PO.
