Best place for money exchange?
 

Do you guys know any good area for changing canadian to yen?

calforex used to have really good rates but they closed. and banks just rip you off. :suspicious:

Try Vancouver Bullion & Currency Exchange, VBCE.ca

I find they usually have pretty good rates

Try calling Money TT (there's one in Crystal and another on Westminster near 3rd) or Shu Hui Da (across the street from Landsdowne). They have given very good rates to me while I was in GVR.

moneyway gives best rates, esp if exchanging >$100K (no balla)

When I go to Asia I usually exchange at Yaohan in Richmond. Forget the name but it's not actually inside Yaohan but it's one of the few stores outside in the front.

For American I either go to Vancouver Bullion if I'm not lazy or I just go to the bank. I know the bank isn't the best rate but I'm only going to be exchanging $500 tops so the difference I lose isn't much imo. Of course it's money and some people want to get the most bang for their buck which is understandable.

VBCE.

also - try search next time...

+1 VBCE is the best

japanese yen, why you so shitty this week? :yuno:

I think that place is called Kingmark.
Kingmark

They have a place in Crystal Mall too. Their rate (when I last checked a few months ago) is slightly better or equal to VBCE. Like winson604, I just go to wherever is most convenient. I usually just change $500 at a time and it's not worth driving all over town to save $2.

My preference is VBCE (better rates then bank)

doesn't matter as long as its not a money mart lol

+1. Vancouver Currency Bullion Exchange.

Aren't they in Richmond Centre? I remember seeing it in there last time I was in there. I noticed they did have slightly better rates that VBCE (at least for USD). If anything because they're in the mall, they'll have better hours than VBCE.

+ VBCE

Try ordering online at your online banking. That would give you the best rate and have it delivered to one of your branches. If not, get USD and exchange it in Japan. That would probably give you the best rates.

If not, VBCE.

Vancouver Currency Bullion Exchange will always give you the best rate. At least for buying USD

They don't, money way is better, call them both and get a quote - I've moved an awful lot of money through them recently and this is what I have found

Ive used the crystal mall location (has outside entrance close to old a&b sound)

gonna bump an old thread. for those of you who've gone to kingmark, do they charge a service fee?

Admittedly I haven't gone to them in over a year but when I was last there, no they didn't.

The only place I remember charging a service fee is Calforex in Richmond Centre. VBCE or Kingmark didn't.

Vancouver Bullion.

not worth it for me since i'm 10 mins away from crystal mall and parking is free as well

I go to VBCE, you can sign up for their Preferred Customer Program and get slightly (very slightly :P ) better rates.

paying for parking balances that out in the end :p

I was about to ask the same question,well thank you all for your kind support.
