You won't get the same rate as Vasu or TT, but you won't be hurt as much as you would by changing money upstairs.
This has been discussed a few times but never bad to bring it back to the fore.

There is more than just Super Rich (Orange)*. There is one called Value+, Superrich (Green) and a couple others.

All are in the area where the Express train tickets used to be sold.

*Super Rich (orange) in the exchange district of Ratchadamri/Big C is typically empty while across the street Superrich (green) is typically busy and sometimes overflowing with customers. I've never used orange and have never had a problem with green hence I stick with them as my sole exchange when feasible.
