How do you know if it is good deal? On Currency to Go an exchange of $509.93 buys 3500 French Francs at an exchange rate of 0.145693. on the Universal Currency Converter the exchange rate is listed as 1 FRF = 0.137738 USD and 3,500.00 FRF = 482.082 USD .
That means it could cost me $27 more to buy the 3500 FRF. Granted I have never gotten the rates that are shown on the site, but they are usually close to what shows up on my ATM or Amex. the qustion is how do you know and is Chase charging too much. Of course there is a cost to deliver to your door, but is it worth it?
