| Not sure if i'll have any takers... Yes, yes, i'm naughty, but somehow i've ended up bringing about 3500 Rupees out of India with me. Tut, Tut. So I have two questions: a) Is there any possible way I can change them here in the UK? b) If not, does anyone want to buy them from me at a rate better than the current exchange rate? Likelihood of me going back to India soon is minimal and I could do with the sterling to be honest (even though it is only about £45! Every little helps when youre a student). If anyone is interested then please PM me and we can sort something out. If you're going to India then it's a good deal! Please help! By the way, my first trip to India finsihed last week and it was great! Thanks Laura |

| The big banks and exchange bureaux won't touch them, but some of the Indian-run exchange bureaux in certain parts of London (and, no doubt, in other cities with significant Indian populations) do accept rupees at a reasonable rate. However... it's only about £40, and hardly worth the effort, so why not just take it to your local Oxfam shop, or donate it to British Airways' Change For Good appeal? |

| What about IndiaBay? I'll start the bidding at £10  (As an aside, if you post a bit more about your experiences in India, you might find that the PM function is enabled for you  ) |

| Laura, you need 10 posts before anyone can PM you. Where in the UK? I'll buy them off you. |
