with just 5k, you're not qualified to get USD at the rate lower than what bc offers. BDC sold USD at 279/280 today while Euro sold for 400. The guy I bought USD from is a heavy dealer. If you're not buying up to 20k minimum, he won't listen to you. You could even get up to 100k from him within 24hrs. His rate was 366, lower than abokifx's

I apologise grin I wanted to state 379/380. Without being told, you should know the rates are not real. Sorry for the typo error. My further explanation should have hinted you that I typed those figures in error. Let me reach him tomorrow morning first, in case he still has much. I'd update you pls
