    Ebay? 3 hours to go on a listing for $600....currently £345.....Im interested so will watch to see what they go for.

    Thanks Froggitt. I won't go the e-bay route but would like to sell to a bank/Thos Cook etc.
    Do I recognise you from another "mutual" interest?

    as far as i was aware there is no fee when using the nationwide card.

    There isn't, but the ATM's charge a fee. At least all of the ones I used last year in vegas, S Francisco, San Diego and LA did.

    well according to the table thing on this site the best rate you can get it 1.59 which is from picking it up from an office in London. Better off going to places like that if you can than the PO imo - thats where i got my great 1.82 rate from a few weeks back

    Presumably emma you mean Thomas Exchange......remember Travelex will pricematch them.....order in advance and pick up at airport.

    Dont leave it till the airport as the rate you will get is rank.

    Or maybe not as theyre showing only $1.54.

    Who has $1.59......that sounds good.

    No, the currency maximiser on this site is out of date......click thru and the best youll find is something like $1.52
