the other day at pepper park complex, I saw one tiong kia queue up want change his leftover ringgit RM$300+++ back to the mamak moneychanger. so I chat him up n offered to buy his ringgit at a mutually good rate for both of us. I told him if sell back, sure kenna poor rate. I ask him sell me, I give u slightly better rate.
then I poach him n ask him go to corner to deal, the stupid moneychanger assistant give me one kind stare like buay song me like that.
so later I dun dare go to his stall change.
their rate was 2.53, sell ringgit. he gave me $334RM n I gave him $130 instead of $132 if follow the 2.53. (coz 334 / 2.53 = 132.02). I saved $2. but anyway i dunno whats the rate they would have bot in from him.
any of u ever undercut moneychangers b4? like ask ppl sell direct to u, cut off the money changer (aka the middle men)?
like u see ppl in the queue holding foreign notes, n its happen that u need those.
