Baht exchange rate

[oasis77]

Well you are asking me where it is then i guess you dont work in the area.. hence any potential savings through exchange rate is wiped out by transport costs. Anyway it is at Raffles Place. Usually those working there would change the money there.

Why not just change at Superrich Rajdamri? I am sure you will passby there

so where is arcade?

 

[oasis77]

FYI.. today's rate at Arcade is 23.32 (22/06/2010 11am). Superrich Rajdamri was at 23.5 at 11am and fell to 23.40 at 5pm.

so where is arcade?

IC.. im changing about 1.5k so even with transport fee its not worth it?my area only have 22.9

I can sell you the 1.5k at 23.20 but where do you stay, Velvet?

I have gotten the rate 23.25 from money changer who can buy my bahts but I have not sold yet, waiting for lower rate.

 

[oasis77]

at $1.5k it would be worth it. The question is whether you want to change $1.5k at one shot in SG since superrich rate is slightly better. Perhaps change enough for transport from airport to your hotel? That's what I usually do anyway. It is your money and hence your decision!

Anyway I will walk over to arcade later and check the rates out again later.

Do post photos after your trip!

What is the shop name at arcade?
Do you have the phone number? I would like to check malaysian ringgit rate as well which I am holding 500k on hand. Yesterday I was offered 0.429 (2.331) from other money changer.

 

[oasis77]

From what I recall, they don't entertain call queries. They have quite a number of changers there, off my mind it's Hassan, Sheen, People's Changer. I am going over and will update in an hr.

a difference of 0.1 for 1.5k is 150baht.. which is around $6.4-5 sgd lor... go calculate ur time, transportation etc and see if worth it or not lor..

Not good time for you to buy thai baht right now.
But if you need it urgently and can get the rate 23.00 for buying less than 100 thousand THB, can consider it good price.

I just sold 4 million baht at 23.09 to mustafa 3 hours ago, made some profit.

Earlier today, I bought 100k USD at 1.390, now can sell at 1.401.

23.15 is considered very good rate if it is still valid today because there are other money changers buying baht at 23.18 today.

Timing is very important, the fastest way to profit more & quickly is with cash. Forex trading is need time to move funds & involve certain costs between systems & people involved. Money changing can contact all the money changers

I am out of baht now as already sold all that i had on 30th June 2010 (Wednesday) morning 10am at 23.01. Now all funds happily lying in e%aver's 1% interest until baht fall alot then i buy in again.
