Why is currency now not available

I wanted to buy some Icelandic Krona, checking yesterday at rates using martins currency comparison there were around 15 bureaus selling it at various rates, now when I check today to buy most are now not showing up.


I've checked a few I remember selling it manually on their site and its now not showing as available. Can someone explain why this is the case, how can a currency now not be available???

  • I'm travelling in just over a week I thought maybe they have sold their stock but then there were suddenly so many not there selling it anymore unless most get it from a central reserve?
